SID Popular Song Rankings [2026]

Summer loveShido15rank/position

SID 'Summer Love'

Summer memories get etched into our hearts along with fireworks, don’t they? This is a single by SID, released in July 2007.

It was used as the ending theme for TV Asahi’s program “Squeez!” The lyrics sing of unrequited love, and the song’s arrangement is striking for the delicacy that shines through its visual kei intensity.

Mao’s vocals are sure to make your heart skip a beat.

Give this track a listen and let it launch summer-love fireworks in your heart.

Delusion Diary 2Shido16rank/position

Sid - Delusion Diary 2

This is part 2 of SID’s classic song “Delusion Diary.” The original “Delusion Diary” portrays the feelings of a stalker, and this sequel continues the story, with the stalking seemingly escalating in the lyrics.

Despite that, the melody is very upbeat and it really energizes the crowd at live shows.

[SID] Hydrangea (PV).

It has a bit of a jazz vibe and a modern feel, so you can listen to it calmly and relaxed.

The bass line moves all over the place, which makes it interesting to focus on that aspect too.

I think it’s singing about the pain of someone you know gradually changing into someone you don’t.

Thin voiceShido18rank/position

SID “Thin Voice”

It’s a poignant song about a couple’s breakup.

Despite being emotionally immature, the couple was close, yet they part ways—an all-too-common story, but made bittersweet and literary through Sid’s distinctive phrasing.

Overall it has a ballad feel, and the buildup toward the latter half is outstanding.

Your letterShido19rank/position

SID “Letter”

Composed by Aki, this song has remained a long-standing favorite among fans.

It portrays a woman with intense attachment through elegantly archaic lyrics.

It’s profoundly heartrending, and simply delving into the lyrics offers enjoyment time and again.

The music video features red lattice imagery and is highly sensual.

Cid: The Weeping Woman and the Void

It’s a sultry song that starts with music box-like sounds.

Aki’s performance live is outstanding.

Unusually for Mao, the lyrics include the word “ore,” giving it a cool, male perspective.

The guitar solo is also full of sensuality.

Deceptive LoveShido21rank/position

SID “Deceptive Love” Music Video

From the Japanese visual-kei band SID, this song is included on their 11th album, “Umibe.” “Damasiai” was released digitally in advance of the album.

While many selections in this article are relatively advanced, I think this track makes an ideal practice song even for beginners at singing or karaoke.

The vocal melody itself doesn’t have many particularly difficult parts, so practice to faithfully reproduce this slightly side-to-side, groovy rhythm.

It’s perfect for developing your sense of rhythm and feel for the beat.

Since it’s an up-tempo song, be careful not to let your singing get ahead of the beat.
