LiSA 'Shine in the Cruel Night' MUSIC CLIP

LiSA’s acclaimed song “Shine in the Cruel Night,” used as the theme for the popular film released in July 2025, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Infinity Castle Arc Chapter 1 – Akaza Returns.

While LiSA often features songs with wide and dramatic pitch shifts, this piece keeps the rises and falls within a range that upper elementary school students can manage.

The vocal range is also average for a female song at roughly mid1 F to hi D, so with a suitable key, even elementary school boys should be able to sing it.

Combined with the anime’s popularity, it’s widely known among elementary school students, so consider adding it to your repertoire.

Velvet Poemback number76rank/position

Velvet Poem

Back number is a rock band that has continued to enjoy popularity since the 2000s.

While they’re labeled a rock band, in reality their music has very strong pop elements, making it a band known for having relatively few complex melodies.

Among back number’s songs, the one I especially recommend for elementary school students is Velvet no Uta (“Velvet Poem”).

Not only is the melody simple and easy for children to sing, but the song also centers on themes of growth and challenge, making it an ethically recommendable piece as well.
