Sheena Ringo – NIPPON

This work, infused with passionate cheers for Japan’s national team, was selected as the theme song for NHK’s soccer broadcasts.

While reflecting Shiina Ringo’s experiences growing up in Brazil and Shimizu, it was reportedly created with a sense of “pre-battle tremors on the eve of war.” Released as a single by Virgin Music in June 2014, it was accompanied by a video project titled “FROM NIPPON TO THE WORLD.” With its distinctive rhythm and powerful melody, the track is notably easy to learn and sing at karaoke.

It’s recommended for moments when you want to keep the excitement going at a party after a sports match.

Yokushitsu -Bathroom-

Yokushitsu, with its striking guitar and piano sounds, appears on the second album Shōso Strip released in March 2000 and carries a decadent, immersive atmosphere.

Many people might sum up Shiina Ringo’s songs as “difficult,” but surprisingly, there are also tracks with a narrow range that are easy to sing.

The overall vocal range of Yokushitsu is A3–C5, which isn’t too high, so there shouldn’t be much to worry about in terms of range.

You can sing the A and B sections in a straightforward, subdued manner, but if you accent the beginning of the chorus, it will add contrast and instantly bring you closer to Ringo’s world.

Shiina Ringo – I Am a Cat’s Eye

Released in May 2024, “I Am a Cat’s Eye” is a track that shines with her characteristic literary flair and cynical social critique.

It features a distinctive worldview and a catchy melody line, making it an easy song to tackle at karaoke.

The participation of skilled musicians, including Rino Tokitsu from Loretta Sekohan, also drew attention.

Issued to commemorate Ms.

Shiina’s 25th debut anniversary, the work sharply depicts the contradictions of modern society and the psychology of its people.

The lyrics urge the importance of living by your own sensibilities without worrying about public opinion, likely resonating with many listeners.

When singing it—especially the first verse—it’s best to memorize the lyrics well beforehand for confidence.

The key is not to overexert yourself when you sing.

carnationShiina Ringo18rank/position

Sheena Ringo – Carnation

This is a song written specifically as the theme for the NHK morning drama series “Carnation.” It’s a grand ballad featuring an orchestra of about 40 players, imbued with prayers for the strength of women, motherhood, and all living things.

You’ll likely find it far easier to sing than Ringo Sheena’s rock-oriented songs.

However, if the chorus doesn’t swell enough, the atmosphere can fall flat, so it’s recommended for those who want to sing out with full voice.

Throughout, make sure to lift your eyebrows and facial muscles firmly and maintain a resonant placement!

Though the road home is lit by the glow of madder red…Shiina Ringo19rank/position

Akane Sasu Kiro Terasaredo… -When It Begins To Get Dark… –

A ballad set on the way home at dusk, expressing heartache, anxiety, and feelings that can’t be put into words.

It’s included on Innocence Moratorium and reflects teenage emotions, portraying the bittersweetness and unease of twilight alongside a fuzz-tinged bassline.

Among fans, it’s cherished as a hidden gem.

It’s also popular for karaoke and is often called a poignant classic that evokes evening scenes from late summer into autumn.

For the verse, drop your voice as if placing it right in front of you, and from the chorus on, be careful not to suddenly belt.

It’s good to focus on making the opening lines clear and crisp.
