Sam Smith – Stay With Me (Official Music Video)

Among Sam Smith’s works, this song is quite easy to sing, yet if you deliver it tenderly, it becomes incredibly cool.

When you sing it, I hope you take on the challenge after fully understanding the bittersweet lyrics touched by his magic.

Your feelings will naturally turn wistful, and you’ll be able to sing it with a sexy vibe.

Charlie Puth – One Call Away [Official Video]

This is a song I’d like to sing in front of the girl I like.

Especially when the girl I love is feeling down, it’s a song that lets me casually tell her, “I’m here for you!” I also think it’s manly to step up and sing it for a close friend who’s feeling low.

One ThingOne Direction33rank/position

One Direction – One Thing

One Direction is hugely popular in Japan as well, especially among teenage girls and women in their twenties.

This song is a bright love song with a catchy pop melody.

Whether it’s before they start dating or right after—they’re so shy and nervous! The lyrics capture the feeling of youthful romance.

Clean Bandit – Rather Be ft. Jess Glynne [Official Video]

It peaked at number 10 on the US Billboard chart, but was ranked fourth on Billboard’s list of best songs of 2014.

The pure lyrics—sung while thinking of someone she loves in Kyoto—are captivating: “If you’re with me, there’s no better place to be.”

The PV’s vibe is pure summer—I felt like I could experience summer just by watching it.

The rhythm is unique, and the song has an addictive quality that makes you want to listen to it under summer palm trees.

I also really like the style where the woman and man sing alternately.
