LUCKY TAPES – A Bouquet for Boring Days [Official Music Video]

Kai Takahashi’s solo project, LUCKY TAPES.

In the early days, their sound often mixed rock and J-pop, but recently the R&B side has grown stronger, and they’ve been releasing many stylish tracks.

Among them, the one I especially recommend is “Bouquet for Boring Days.” While it’s categorized as J-pop, it carries an R&B-like groove in places.

That said, the rhythm isn’t difficult, and it doesn’t feature the advanced vocal techniques common in R&B, such as melisma.

The vocal range is also very narrow, making it a song that should be easy for teenage male singers to perform.

ROSIERLUNA SEA59rank/position

LUNA SEA – ROSIER

It’s a popular song by the visual kei rock band LUNA SEA.

It’s a very intense track, so I highly recommend it for karaoke.

Even for people who can’t hit high notes, I don’t think it’s that difficult.

The guitar solo is incredibly cool.

REACHING FOR THE SKYMAN WITH A MISSION60rank/position

MAN WITH A MISSION「REACHING FOR THE SKY」

MAN WITH A MISSION is a rock band that continues to attract fans with their sharp sound.

They’re a mid-career rock band, but since they’re still active on the front lines, many teenage boys are probably familiar with them.

Among their songs, the one I particularly recommend is REACHING FOR THE SKY.

Although it features an exhilarating melody, it surprisingly has a narrow vocal range; aside from the sustained long note at the end of the chorus, there aren’t even any mid-to-high notes.

The vocal line works fine even when sung roughly, making it a perfect pick for teenage boys whose voices may still be unstable.

MY FIRST STORY – I’m a mess (Audio)

Let me introduce “I’M A MESS,” a song that straightforwardly expresses love for someone special.

It’s a track released by the four-piece rock band MY FIRST STORY, which also drew attention for their performance on THE FIRST TAKE.

It’s a classic love song that sings of love over a fast-paced sound, so I think people of all ages will enjoy it.

It’s also said to reflect the period of self-restraint during the COVID-19 pandemic.

With that in mind, you may feel a different message from it.

SHE’S – Letter【MV】

SHE’S, well-regarded among rock fans as a piano-rock band, has captivated many with their whisper-soft, thornless vocals.

“Letter” is a song wrapped in gentle warmth.

Within that kindness, it’s a song about wanting to become someone worthy of a precious person.

The feeling of “I regret hurting the one I love, yet I still want to feel love” is complicated, but surely relatable to some.

It’s a track I’d especially like students who are just awakening to love in their teens to hear.

Youth / THE HIGH-LOWS

A quintessential coming-of-age song by THE HIGH-LOWS, a charismatic presence in youth anthems—just like the title suggests.

Known for their many uplifting tracks and fervent popularity, THE HIGH-LOWS deliver one of their most beloved youth songs here.

It’s a track I highly recommend to anyone who hasn’t heard it.
