Ayumi Shigemori Popular Songs Ranking [2026] (1–10)
Sorry, green pepper.Shigemori Ayumi1rank/position
Speaking of green bell peppers, they could be considered the quintessential vegetable that children dislike.
This is a unique song in which a child who hates bell peppers apologizes to them.
Some of you may have heard it on “Okaasan to Issho.” This video is a cover version by the A.M.Y Project.
Dango Three BrothersHayami Kentarō, Shigemori Ayumi2rank/position
A nostalgic song for moms’ and dads’ generation, Dango San Kyodai.
It’s a very unique tune about three close-knit brothers, sung to a tango rhythm.
It was the January 1999 song, performed at the time by big brother Kentaro Hayami and big sister Ayumi Shigemori.
There are many popular songs from Okaasan to Issho, but this one was such a huge hit that it briefly became a social phenomenon.
The lyrics, which sing about the three brothers’ personalities, daily lives, and feelings, are easy to remember, and I think kids today can enjoy singing it, too.
The next time you have skewered dango, why not give it a sing?
Do-Re-Mi-Fa TrainHayami Kentarō, Shigemori Ayumi3rank/position
The ending theme of the puppet show “Doremifa Donuts!,” set on Donuts Island near Niko-Niko Island—the setting of the previous work “Niko Niko, Pun”—is “Doremifa Ressha.” The main vocals were performed by Kentarō Hayami, the 8th “Uta no Onii-san,” and Ayumi Shigemori, the 17th “Uta no Onee-san.” It’s a groovy, funky number featuring slap bass and cutting guitar.
As the title suggests, it uses many sound effects that evoke trains, such as locomotive whistles and chuffing steam sounds.
Beyond the rainbowShigemori Ayumi / Hayami Kentarō4rank/position
The song I’d love for you to sing when the rain clears and the weather turns nice is “Niji no Mukou ni” (“Beyond the Rainbow”).
It was created by singer-songwriter Osamu Sakata, who has provided many songs for Okaasan to Issho.
Rainbows that appear after the rain have such a mysterious feeling, and they make you wonder, “What’s over there, beyond that?”—it fills you with excitement, doesn’t it? That kind of dream-filled, positive scene is depicted in this song.
It’s also popular as a hand-play song, so be sure to add the motions and sing it brightly and energetically!
Gather! SmilesHayami Kentarō, Shigemori Ayumi5rank/position
Atsumare! Egao (Gather, Smiles!) was released as the song for February 1999.
The lyrics and music were written by Kentaro Hayami, who was serving as the “Uta no Onii-san” at the time.
It’s such an uplifting tune that makes you want to grab a friend’s hand and start running! Children have all kinds of personalities—some can play with friends right away, while others have a hard time joining in or speaking up.
At times like that, how about singing this song together? It might be a chance to start caring more about other friends.
Flamenco of the WindHayami Kentarō, Shigemori Ayumi6rank/position
Set to an authentic flamenco melody, this song describes how it feels to be wobbly and weak from a cold.
It portrays a child’s feelings as they suffer through the hardships of a cold—sneezing, running a fever, feeling awful—yet still hating the idea of getting a shot.
Here and thereHayami Kentarō, Shigemori Ayumi7rank/position
Holding hands is fun, and when our shoulders touch, it makes me happy.
If we fight, it makes me very sad, but when our eyes meet, we make up.
Listening to it as an adult, it starts to feel like it might actually be a song about first love—a gentle, tender-sounding piece.
