=LOVE (Equal Love) / 18th Single “Tokubechu, Shite” [MV full]

=LOVE, the idol group produced by Rino Sashihara.

Rather than the currently mainstream K-pop style, they specialize in classic, old-school idol songs.

Their new track is Tokubechu, Shite.

While it has a polished, poppy feel, its vocal range is surprisingly not that wide, and the melody line moves gently without big jumps in pitch, making it a song where you can realistically aim for a perfect score.

Definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

CHANMINA – Shameless (Dance Performance Video) –

Currently drawing attention after being targeted with a diss by NENE, the female rapper Chanmina.

Her track “HARENCHI” is a masterpiece that showcases her wide musical range.

In this song, the lowest note is mid1 E, which is on the lower side for a female track, but the highest note is hi B, so the overall range is relatively narrow.

Therefore, as long as you adjust the key, most women should be able to sing it without issue.

The song carries a languid vibe throughout, making the vocal technique known as “fall” particularly important.

You’ll likely learn this technique faster by referencing Western music rather than J‑pop, so while working on this track, listen to Western R&B as well to build your repertoire of falls.

Kana Nishino “Torisetsu” MV Full

A love song that portrays the delicate psychology of women from the original perspective of an “instruction manual.” It’s a tune many people have heard at least once! Released in September 2015, it became the theme song for the film “No Longer Heroine,” making it a popular hit.

Kana Nishino’s bittersweet yet powerful vocals truly resonate.

The lyrics are perfect for women who want to get closer to the man they’re interested in.

Sing it at karaoke and it’s sure to be a hit with the guys.

Not only is it easy to relate to because it speaks for women’s true feelings, but its bright vibe also makes it a fun song to enjoy together.

Remioromen – March 9th (Music Video Short ver.)

A ballad released by Remioromen in 2004, “March 9,” is a song you want to sing or listen to on special days.

The fact that vocalist Ryota Fujimaki wrote it for a friend’s wedding is already so stylish and cool.

A rock ballad perfect for the spring season of farewells—couldn’t it be the ultimate romantic ballad? The gently sung first verse, and a powerful chorus where the emotions—loneliness and memories—won’t stop moving you.

It’s a song that makes you notice once again the everyday happiness you’ve been taking for granted.

Chatmonchy “Shangri-La” Music Video

Shangri-La originally means a utopia, an ideal land.

However, in Chatmonchy’s 2006 song titled “Shangri-La,” it refers to a lover’s name, and the lyrics unfold as if speaking directly to that lover.

Sung in vocalist Eriko Hashimoto’s sweet voice, the song conveys the feelings of a man who is obsessed with his lover and longs to be loved by them all the time.

It’s refreshing to hear a female group sing from a male perspective, isn’t it? The desire to be loved is a wish shared by all, regardless of gender.

Why not make a subtle appeal through song in front of the person you like?
