MISIA's Most Popular Songs Ranking [2026]

Birthday CakeMISIA50rank/position

Birth Day！！cake MISIA

This song was included on MISIA’s 2004 album “SINGER FOR SINGER.” The lyrics and music were written by BEGIN’s vocalist, Higa Eisō.

Comparing the Earth to a birthday cake and the stars to candles, it’s a track that brims with the feeling of “the great outdoors.”

Butterfly ButterflyMISIA51rank/position

MISIA – Butterfly Butterfly （Official Music Video）

MISIA has worked on a wide range of songs, including some uptempo dance tracks.

Among them, the one I especially recommend is “Butterfly Butterfly.” Inspired by electro swing—a modern style of jazz popular in Belgium and France—it’s arranged with an overall catchy, groovy feel.

While it does require some attention to a slightly staccato delivery, it doesn’t demand foundational vocal skills like sustained notes or vibrato, so among her works, it can be considered relatively easy to sing.

EDGE OF THIS WORLDMISIA52rank/position

MISIA – EDGE OF THIS WORLD （Official Music Video）

When it comes to MISIA, her serene yet grand ballads are especially memorable.

However, she has also released some electronic dance numbers.

Among them, the one I particularly recommend is “EDGE OF THIS WORLD.” It begins as a conventional ballad, but once the chorus hits, electronic sounds come in and the mood shifts to a cybernetic feel.

With fewer long sustained notes and an easy-to-follow rhythm, it’s one of the most singable tracks in MISIA’s catalog.

Be sure to check it out.

Everything（Instrumental）MISIA53rank/position

Everything / MISIA – Instrumental (Cover)

This is one of MISIA’s signature songs, a masterpiece that evokes the winter sky and crisp, clear air.

Behind her overwhelmingly powerful vocals lies such a beautiful track.

Naturally, it also works brilliantly as background music, with the acoustic guitar and bass melodies creating an entrancing mood.

This, too, would make excellent BGM for enjoying a more grown-up Christmas.

K.I.TMISIA54rank/position

K.I.T　MISIA　/ DEEPNESS

MISIA is strongly associated with R&B, but this song is unusually J-pop-like.

With her soaring vocals, a driving track, and a beautiful melody, it comes together as a song that makes your heart race.

Listening to the lyrics, the scenes vividly come to life, filling you with excitement.

LUV PARADEMISIA55rank/position

MISIA – LUV PARADE （Official HD Music Video）

A sparkling pop tune packed with her soulful spirit, backed by various tie-ins such as “Myumo,” “Iromelo Mix,” and “music.jp.” Just listening to it will make you smile before you know it, just like the lyrics say.

MAWARE MAWAREMISIA56rank/position

MISIA – MAWARE MAWARE （Official Music Video）

Maware Maware, MISIA’s masterpiece that gained popularity as the theme song for the 2010 FIFA World Cup held in South Africa.

Despite its grandeur, the piece maintains a light and breezy feel rather than a heavy tone.

Because it contains a fair number of sustained long notes, it can’t be called an easy song; however, the track itself makes a strong statement, which helps mask the vocals, making it relatively easy to sing.
