1 on the Oricon Singles Chart in its first week and ranked fourth on the 2008 year-end chart.

In 2009, it also achieved the remarkable feat of being recognized by Guinness World Records.

The lyrics portray a vow of everlasting love, intertwining the miracle of the two meeting with the path they have walked so far.

Sukima Switch – “Zenryoku Shonen” Music Video : SUKIMASWITCH / Zenryoku Shonen Music Video

A signature song by Sukima Switch, this pop track carries an encouraging message about dreams and taking on challenges.

With a lively band sound and a fairly fast tempo, you’ll need to keep the beat with your body so you don’t fall behind.

The overall vocal range is C3–A4, and it jumps into the high register in the chorus, so it’s recommended for singers who are good with high notes.

If high notes aren’t your strength, it’s fine to lower the key to make the chorus easier to sing, but be careful not to let the low notes in the verse get lost.

When you sing, lifting your facial muscles right before the chorus will help you hit the first note smoothly!

"MV" Senbonzakura WhiteFlame feat. Hatsune Miku

This work, notable for its Japanese-style rock sound and a world that evokes the Taisho Romantic era, is a signature VOCALOID piece by KuroUsa-P.

Set in a time when Western and Japanese cultures fused, it skillfully depicts the contrast between technological progress and tradition, as well as the struggles people faced amid rapid social change.

Released in September 2011, the song was included on the album “1st Anniversary Album ALL THAT Senbonzakura!!,” and numerous arranged versions were produced.

In 2015, Wagakki Band’s cover was broadcast on television, and that same year Sachiko Kobayashi performed it in a special segment on NHK’s Kouhaku Uta Gassen.

With its driving melody and incorporation of traditional Japanese elements, the song continues to be cherished—especially by younger audiences—as a piece that resonates with nostalgic memories.

Rhyme Wave Phrase DisciplesCHEHON67rank/position

CHEHON – Inpakutto / THE FIRST TAKE

Osaka reggae anthem “Inbakuto.” I think it’s rare for people who were in their 20s to have enjoyed it in real time when it was released, but there are probably many who discovered it through CHEHON’s participation in MC battles.

Although the track is structured with few break points, its vocal range is narrow, so as long as you memorize the lyrics and flow, you should be able to sing it without any issues.

It’s a sure-fire hit for guys’ karaoke, so definitely add it to your repertoire.

It’s a rock-flavored fight song whose sense of speed and ear-filling distorted sound stoke your excitement.

[Kozue] I tried dancing to Luka Luka★Night Fever

It’s a Vocaloid song.

The choreography was created by the dancer Kozue Aikawa.

In the “odottemita” category, where the video has surpassed 10 million views, it’s so famous that people say there’s no one who can’t dance it.

When I learned the choreography and danced it at karaoke, it was a huge hit.

Six-member idol group SixTONES, known for their unique personalities and solid vocal skills, has gained widespread popularity.

The lead track “Anthem” from their fourth album THE VIBES lifts your spirits with powerful choral work and a band ensemble.

The lyrics, which feel like a declaration to take on even the highest ideals, are sure to give a strong push to anyone who has dreams but also doubts.

With relentless rap and a catchy hook that sticks in your ears, it’s a powerful motivational anthem.
