KANA-BOON “Silhouette” Music Video

It’s the opening theme from the anime “Naruto Shippuden,” hugely popular among teenage boys! It’s sure to get the crowd going at karaoke! When you sing it, focus on the key points: keep a solid sense of tempo, feel the occasional bouncy rhythms, and pay attention to the falsetto in the chorus.

With fast-tempo band songs, it’s easy to get excited and speed up as you sing.

Try not to sway your body too much—stay centered so you can maintain a steady rhythm.

For the bouncy rhythm, lightly use your knees to move up and down and you’ll nail the timing.

Make sure your falsetto resonates in your head voice! Overall, I recommend singing lightly with a bright, heady resonance.

Fujifabric – Youth of Everything

This is a memorable masterpiece distinguished by a gentle melody line that tenderly embraces the poignant scenery of late summer and the fleeting nature of youth.

Set against fireworks and twilight, it portrays the desire to cherish this moment intertwined with anxieties about a changing future.

Beautifully balancing Fujifabric’s refined musicality with the delicate world of its lyrics, the song was released in November 2007 as their 10th single and served as the lead single for the album TEENAGER.

Macaroni Enpitsu 'Pretend Lovers' MV

Alongside “Nandemonai yo,” “Koibito Gokko” can be considered one of Macaroni Empitsu’s signature songs.

Since it was featured in a Spotify commercial, many of you have probably heard it! The suggestive lyrics spark the imagination, making it a compelling number.

Wanting to part but being unable to—such a bittersweet romance is truly painful, isn’t it? Though the lyrics are heartrending, the pop, buoyant sound is quintessentially Macaroni Empitsu, and even if you’re going through a tough love, it might just lighten your heart.

It’s recommended for teens—especially male singers—who want to perform songs by trending artists but struggle with songs in higher keys!

Young Skinny – Actually, You Know, [Official Music Video]

In front of the person you like, you end up putting on a brave face, blurting out words you don’t mean, and sinking into self-loathing.

This song by Young Skinny portrays that clumsy yet endearing tsundere kind of love.

Released as a single in October 2022, it was also chosen as the ending theme for TBS’s “King’s Brunch.” It’s known for becoming the band’s first track to surpass 100 million total streams and is included on the album “I Thought Anything Would Be Forgiven If I Turned It Into a Song.” Many listeners will likely relate to the painful contradiction of pushing someone away even though you really like them.

Kayayu’s true-to-life vocals are sure to gently nudge the hearts of those troubled by love.

Blending bittersweet lyrics with a pop sound, it’s a rock number that captures listeners’ hearts and won’t let go.

10-FEET – The Zero Sense (Ending Theme Song of the Film 'THE FIRST SLAM DUNK')

This is a digital single released in November 2022, written as the ending theme song for the film THE FIRST SLAM DUNK.

It’s a rock number that embodies the film’s sense of speed and emotion, expressing the feelings of SLAM DUNK character Ryota Miyagi and the intensity of the game.

For its length, it features surprisingly little sung content and a lot of melodic repetition.

There are also quite a few chorus parts, so be careful not to get pulled off by them.

I think if you sing the chorus boldly, your voice will project better and it will be easier to stay on pitch.
