If you’re looking for a bright, energetic song, we recommend “YOUR SONG feat.

MISIA”! There’s a male-female unison part, but the key is comfortable for two female voices as well, so give it a try.

With its lively rhythm and repeated call-and-response sections, it’s easy to get into the groove.

Even people who don’t know the song can have fun and get excited together!
