Koresawa “Don’t You Cheat on Me” [Music Video]

Koresawa is a female singer-songwriter who has gained popularity for her catchy musical style.

She has produced many classic songs, so even if there’s a slight generation gap, plenty of high school girls are likely to know her music.

Among her tracks, the one I especially recommend is “Uwaki Shitara Akan de” (“Don’t You Dare Cheat”).

It portrays a woman’s feelings: she refuses to tolerate cheating and maintains a strong stance, yet still worries about her boyfriend deep down.

It’s a surefire hit for an all-girls karaoke session.

As for the vocal range, it’s somewhat high at mid2A to hiC#, but not particularly wide.

For high school girls, it should be singable even without adjusting the key.

Pilafian – TETETE

Pilaf Seijin is a rapper drawing attention in the MC battle scene.

While opinions about him in battles are divided, his recorded tracks have been highly praised, especially among teen heads.

Among his songs, the one I particularly recommend is “TETETE.” It’s a track drenched in Auto-Tune, but the flow itself is fairly simple and melodious, leaning more toward a vocal performance than straight rap.

Though it sits on the higher side, the overall range isn’t very wide, making it a song that’s relatively easy to sing for all genders.

Noa (Noshii) – Omnidirectional Beautiful Girl [Official Music Video]

Noshi is a female singer-songwriter who has gained popularity for her music brimming with originality.

She has many comical songs, and their impact draws attention every time.

You could say her work is especially popular among subculture-inclined girls.

Among Noshi’s tracks, the one I particularly recommend is “Zen Hoko Bishoujo” (“All-Direction Beautiful Girl”).

Though it leaves a strong impression, its vocal range is not especially wide, spanning mid2A to hi C#.

If the falsetto parts are tough, it’s a good idea to lower the key with a focus on those sections.

Moody yet highly addictive, this song is sure to hype up any karaoke session.

Yūki Chiba – Team Tomodachi (Official Music Video)

I think today’s middle school students are closer to hip-hop than any generation before them.

Among them, many middle school heads are probably listening to trap music, which leads the times.

What I recommend is Team Tomodachi.

This track is a hit number by Yuki Chiba, aka KOHH, that gained worldwide popularity.

It’s laid back in trap style, so the flow is very simple.

Even those not used to rapping should have no problem performing it.

Nana Mori - Smile (Music Video)

This is “Smile,” which was featured in a commercial for Oronamin C.

Thanks to this song, Nana Mori’s recognition as a singer skyrocketed.

The vibrant, down-to-earth energy of a teenager comes through in her vocals.

It was also a perfect fit for Nana Mori’s charming vibe.

With its relaxed rhythm and melody, it’s an easy, worry-free choice even when you’re unsure what to sing.

Listeners will likely find their spirits gradually and naturally lifted.

Keyakizaka46 'Silent Majority'

This song carries a powerful message about the importance of resisting peer pressure and living by your own will.

It’s Keyakizaka46’s memorable debut single, released in April 2016, and it also gained attention as the theme for the “Mechakari” commercial.

Included on their first album, “Masshiro na Mono wa Yogoshitaku Naru,” the track features low vocal lines in the A and B sections, making it comfortable to sing even for those who struggle with high notes.

The structure builds to a chorus that lets you unleash your emotions, making it incredibly satisfying to sing.

Since the melody doesn’t fluctuate dramatically in pitch, it’s perfect when you want to deliver a cool, composed performance.

Try picking it when you want to get hyped with friends or blow off some steam!

Wednesday Campanella “Edison”

Since the Reiwa era began, many “cute” songs have come out, but isn’t Wednesday Campanella’s “Edison” in a different league of cuteness? It was also the first mega-hit after Utaha took over as vocalist, and I think many people were surprised at the uniquely cute quality of her voice at the time.

Although a falsetto appears in the chorus, the pitch only goes up to hi C# and isn’t particularly difficult.

The chest-voice range is around mid2B to hi A, which isn’t especially wide.

Also, regarding the hi A notes, even if the pitch is a little off, it can help convey a youthful feel, so there’s no need to be overly strict about pitch.
