Nogizaka46 "Monopoly"

Nogizaka46, an idol group formed as AKB48’s official rivals, released their 34th single “Monopoly.” It’s a song about realizing that it’s impossible for the person you love to always be thinking only about you, and that you’ve been taking their kindness for granted.

With a calm tempo and a cool vibe, the lyrics center on the protagonist’s jealousy.

The title “Monopoly” means to possess exclusively, and the song ends with lyrics overflowing with that possessiveness.

It’s a track that conveys love through a straightforward and slightly playful heroine!

Shaved Ice Unrequited LoveNogizaka 4619rank/position

Nogizaka46 Unrequited Love of Shaved Ice [High Quality Sound]

This song has a title that makes you go “Huh?” at first glance.

It’s included on Type-C of Nogizaka46’s second album, Sorezore no Isu, released in 2016.

The lyrics compare the fragility of unrequited love to things like shaved ice melting, portraying the aching heart of a love that likely won’t come true, a love that isn’t simple.

The vocal range is very narrow, so as long as you choose the right key, people with any voice type can sing it comfortably.

The lyrics can also be sung at a relaxed pace, so among Nogizaka’s songs, it’s on the easier side for karaoke.
