RomanticismMrs. GREEN APPLE85rank/position
A song with an uplifting, fast-paced sound that feels like a snapshot from a bittersweet youth—the impression is refreshingly vivid.
The gentle vocals that stay close to the hearts of high school students and the straightforward, heartfelt lyrics will resonate deeply.
Released in October 2019 and written specifically for Shiseido’s “SEA BREEZE” commercial, this piece features Mrs.
GREEN APPLE’s signature poppy, catchy melody line—sure to make you hum along before you know it.
It’s a perfect track for high schoolers who spend their days carrying the ache of unrequited love and their feelings for someone special.
It’s a wonderful song that makes you feel as if it’s expressing the emotions deep in your heart through music.
TemptationGLAY86rank/position
This is a staple song for live shows, and TAKURO has said he wanted it to be a “trigger to fire things up” on stage! Right from the intro drums and guitar riff, your energy shoots up.
The overall vocal range is D#3 to C#5—there are high notes, but it’s a rhythm-friendly rock tune, so if you sing out boldly without hesitation, you’ll likely hit those highs.
The flow goes from a relatively calm delivery in the A and B sections to an explosive chorus, and even a rough, raw singing style will look and sound cool! Just be careful not to overstrain your voice in the chorus.
The key is to resonate through your body—place a hand on your chest and let your chest voice ring out comfortably.

The opening theme song for the TV anime “Oblivion Battery.” In karaoke, it’s a challenge-type rock number where a sense of speed and stable high notes are the keys to a high score! You’ll use both chest voice and falsetto, and the transitions can feel tricky, but because falsetto makes it easier to hit the right pitches, singing it naturally can really boost your score! Also, the melody line is surprisingly simple and easy to follow.
There’s a section in triple meter partway through, so be sure to lock in with the rhythm.
If the range feels high, adjust the key to what’s comfortable for you—another tip for aiming at a perfect 100! Try singing lightly without straining your voice too much.
Voice of the Seaurashima tarō (kiritani kenta)88rank/position
The hit song “Umi no Koe” was born from an au commercial.
It was composed by the Okinawan band BEGIN, and the vocals are sung by Kenta Kiritani, who plays Urashima Taro.
Since Kiritani is primarily an actor, the vocal line is crafted to be very simple.
While the arrangement doesn’t particularly emphasize the low register, you can sing from the first verse through the chorus using a resonant, overtoned delivery that adds fullness.
It’s recommended for those who want to emphasize thickness rather than sheer depth.
Full-Power BoySukima Suichi89rank/position
A signature song by Sukima Switch, this pop track carries an encouraging message about dreams and taking on challenges.
With a lively band sound and a fairly fast tempo, you’ll need to keep the beat with your body so you don’t fall behind.
The overall vocal range is C3–A4, and it jumps into the high register in the chorus, so it’s recommended for singers who are good with high notes.
If high notes aren’t your strength, it’s fine to lower the key to make the chorus easier to sing, but be careful not to let the low notes in the verse get lost.
When you sing, lifting your facial muscles right before the chorus will help you hit the first note smoothly!
rendezvousshaitoopu90rank/position
Released by Shitope in April 2023, this work is a song that vividly captures the emotions of a man right after a breakup.
With relatable yet distinctive metaphors—like losing his appetite and finding that even cream-filled bread has no taste—it sharply highlights the pain of separation.
The languid, sweet vocals and expansive choral work resonate as if enveloping the bittersweet ache of heartbreak.
It topped Spotify’s Viral Chart and has surpassed 300 million total streams.
It’s a track that deeply comforts those who have just lost someone precious and are not yet ready to accept reality.

DarlingMrs. GREEN APPLE91rank/position
A perfect Mrs.
GREEN APPLE track to hear during graduation season, when anxiety and excitement mix.
The lyrics question your true self and gently urge you to love yourself—including your weaknesses—giving you the courage to take a new step forward.
Written as the theme song for NHK General’s “Mrs.
GREEN APPLE 18 Festival” in January 2025, the song is also included on their best-of album “10,” released in July of the same year.
On the program, a chorus performance with 1,000 18-year-olds was showcased, and its sheer energy became a hot topic.
When you’re straining to meet others’ expectations, listening to this will remind you it’s okay to be just the way you are.
It’s also perfect for belting out at karaoke with friends as you celebrate each other’s new beginnings!
