Known as the theme song of the film Frozen, this piece is a masterpiece that fully showcases Takako Matsu’s vocal prowess.

The lyrics, which sing of the resolve to accept one’s true self, resonated with many people.

Upon its release in March 2014, it held the No.

1 spot on RecoChoku’s rankings for 28 consecutive days.

It topped the chart a total of 13 times, setting a new all-time record.

It’s a song that gives you courage when you lack confidence or want to take a new step forward.

This song, which became a global sensation as the theme song of a Disney film, carries a powerful message about the importance of living true to oneself.

The joy of unleashing the “real you” that everyone keeps deep inside, and the strong will toward self-actualization, are expressed through its grand melody and Takako Matsu’s clear, resonant vocals.

Released alongside the film in March 2014, it won the JASRAC Award for Overseas Works.

It also ranked first in a “Songs That Touched the Heart” poll chosen by seniors, inspiring cross-generational empathy.

It’s a perfect song to sing for those who feel life is challenging or who want to take a new step forward.

If you sing it together at karaoke to lift each other’s spirits, it will surely brighten your heart.

A musical number by Sayaka Kanda and Takako Matsu that enjoys overwhelming popularity even among Disney works.

Many of you reading this may have found yourselves humming it as children.

The lively back-and-forth between the two shines in “For the First Time in Forever.” Included on the Japanese soundtrack released in March 2014, it colored a pivotal scene in the film Frozen where the sisters’ feelings intersect.

Blending anticipation and anxiety, the song captivates with conversational lyrics and a dramatic progression.

It’s great to tackle solo, but splitting parts with a friend will surely make it even more exciting! Lifting your facial muscles helps you project your voice more easily, so try becoming the story’s protagonist as you sing.

Tomorrow, when spring comesMatsu Takako4rank/position

When you feel the spring breeze, don’t you sometimes find yourself remembering a youthful romance? Lyrics that bring back those sweet and bittersweet memories—like watching your crush chase a white ball around the school field—can really make your heart skip a beat.

This was the debut single released by Takako Matsu in March 1997, and it also became well-loved as the CM song for NTT’s “Waku-Waku New Life Campaign.” There’s even a surprising tidbit that its working title during production was “Negitoro Tamago.” This song carries both the ache of going separate ways and a faint hope of reunion.

It’s perfect for those parting ways at graduation or for anyone who wants to tuck away their memories with care.

With the arrival of a new season, it’s a song that will give you the courage to face forward and start walking—so please give it a listen!

This song hardly needs any introduction anymore.

It’s the theme song for the Japanese version of the Disney animated film Frozen, and it’s almost become one of Takako Matsu’s signature numbers.

It’s a piece that lets a high-toned female vocal shine to the fullest.

As for Matsu’s singing here, rather than belting in a lofty, grand manner, it sometimes sounds like she’s relying a bit on her natural vocal power to hit the high notes—but the way she sings so expansively is impressive, as expected.

I think it fully conveys the worldview of the animated film as well.

Takako Matsu’s “Ashita wa Doko Kara” (Where Tomorrow Begins) was written as the theme song for the NHK morning drama “Warotenka,” which is based on Sei Yoshimoto, the founder of Yoshimoto Kogyo.

Released as her 22nd single, it’s also included on the album “Ashita wa Doko Kara.” With lyrics that sing about how today connects to tomorrow and Matsu’s warm vocals, it’s an uplifting anthem that gives you energy.

It’s definitely a song I recommend starting your day with!

It’s Takako Matsu’s eighth single, released in September 1999.

The song was also used in a Shiseido “WHITIA” commercial, with Ms.

Matsu herself writing both the lyrics and the music.

Although she is a singer with very strong vocal ability, this particular track has simple melodies and lyrics, making it easy to hum along to and a safe pick for karaoke.

Because the melody is so simple, I think it’ll come out even better if you take time to understand the lyrics and focus on expressive delivery that matches them, rather than just strict accuracy.
