BEGIN / “Shimanchu nu Takara” 20th Anniversary MV

BEGIN is a band whose warm sound evokes the breeze of Okinawa and has been loved across generations.

This signature track of theirs is a moving number that asks about “what truly matters,” the kind of thing textbooks and TV don’t teach.

The well-known story goes that the lyrics were woven from words written by local junior high school students on Ishigaki Island.

Released as a single in 2002, it was written as the image song for NHK Okinawa’s “30th Anniversary of Okinawa’s Reversion to the Mainland.” It is also known as a core track on the classic album “Begin no Shimauta ~Omoto Takeo 2~.” Give it a listen in those moments when, amid the rush of daily work, you suddenly think of your hometown or old friends.

Its gentle yet powerful vocals are sure to give a quiet push to men in their 40s.

I want to take only you away just like this.

Released in March 1993 as DEEN’s debut single, this masterpiece has long been cherished as one of their signature songs.

Its poignant melody and lyrics that portray a deep longing for someone drifting away strike right at the heart.

Written by Sho Uesugi and composed by Tetsuro Oda, it was also used in an NTT DoCoMo “Pocket Bell” commercial and went on to become a million seller at the time.

The sweet, clear vocals gently cradle the pain of heartbreak, making it a song many find themselves wanting to listen to in quiet moments.

It’s also a karaoke staple, a classic ballad perfect for singing with poise while reminiscing about those days.

It’s included on the album “DEEN,” so be sure to enjoy it with a sense of nostalgia!

FIELD OF VIEW – Dan Dan Kokoro Hikareteku (QHD Remastered Video)

DAN DAN Kokoro Hikareteku, famous as the theme of Dragon Ball GT, is an exceptionally easy-to-sing, high-scoring song among 90s anime-song × J-pop rock tracks! The overall vocal range is G#2 to A4, and the song starts right off with the chorus, so the first note is crucial since it sits a bit on the higher side.

As a band-style track, it should be easy to lock into the rhythm.

From the very beginning, focus on projecting your voice and aim it far forward.

It’s very important to prepare your voice as if taking a running start.

Since the melody generally climbs higher with each phrase, it’s best to sing with a growing sense of momentum.
