Shine On MeŌhara Sakurako22rank/position

Sakurako Ohara – Shine On Me (Official Music Video)

Sakurako Ohara is a singer who has worked on many love songs.

She drew attention for taking on her first dance performance with “Shine On Me.” It’s an R&B track that depicts the push-and-pull with a man she has feelings for, told from a woman’s perspective.

It’s an upbeat song, yet it also conveys a mature vibe.

Since there’s a lot of English in the lyrics, paying attention to the pronunciation can really make it feel like you’re nailing the performance.

The choreography is catchy too, so it’s fun to try imitating it lightly.

Sakurako Ohara – First Love (Lyric Video)

Sakurako Ohara’s “First Love” is a cute song that captures a maiden’s heart—confused by falling in love yet secretly delighted—and it’s a big hit with men at karaoke.

With its simple melody and not-too-high key, it’s easy for anyone to sing, which is another plus.

The key to winning a man’s heart is to sing slowly and with feeling, paying attention to each word.

If he sees you earnestly expressing the emotions of first love, he’s sure to feel his heart flutter!

Sakurako Ohara (from MUSH&Co.) program “Isn’t it okay to go to Cafe Mushroom?” (Live Edition)

It’s a gently encouraging song by Sakurako Ohara! Rather than pushing you forward with a forceful “Do your best! Do your best!” it cheers you on softly, saying, “I’m with you, so let’s try our best together.” It’s the perfect song for when you’re feeling down or need some support.

Please give it a listen.

Ohara Sakurako (from MUSH&Co.) – Isn’t It Okay to Have Tried Your Best [Music Video (Short ver.)]

A cheer song with a refreshing, pop sound that really stands out is Sakurako Ohara’s “Ganbattatte Iinjanai.” Released in 2014 as a spin-off single from the film The Liar and His Lover, in which Ohara appeared, its lyrics—singing about striving together toward the goal—are a perfect fit for basketball.

It’s especially recommended for students working hard on their school basketball teams.

Why not try using it as background music during practice?

Close to youŌhara Sakurako26rank/position

Close to you

When you want to send a birthday song to a friend you don’t get to see often, I recommend the song “Close to You.” We all have friends we drifted apart from before we knew it—maybe you went to different schools or got busy after starting work.

It’s become hard to reach out, but you still really want to see them and have so much you’d like to talk about.

This song carries a warm message: even if we’re apart, I’m always thinking of you.

It conveys both your feelings and your birthday wishes.

September

The song “September” by Sakurako Ohara captivates with her refreshing, straightforward vocals.

With references to formulas and notebooks that evoke school days, the lyrics carry a youthful nostalgia.

If you’re a current student, it’ll surely make your heart ache in the best way.

It’s a breakup song written from a male perspective, and Ohara’s refreshing yet delicate delivery is part of its charm.

It’s perfect for sentimental September—be sure to pick it at karaoke.
