Sousei no Aquarion (Cover)

This is the song used for the opening of the anime “Genesis of Aquarion.” The anime became so famous that it was turned into a pachinko game in 2007, so people of the same generation have probably heard it somewhere at least once.

Also, the chorus lyrics are easy to understand, which makes it really exciting.

Tomorrow as wellSHISHAMO23rank/position

SHISHAMO “Tomorrow Too”

SHISHAMO’s hit song “Ashita mo.” The key change in the chorus feels incredibly satisfying, and thanks to its exhilarating vibe, this J-rock number gained popularity nationwide.

The vocal range is standard, spanning mid1F# to hiC.

The highest note, hiC, appears frequently in the chorus, so it’s a song that requires a bit of stamina.

If it feels tough, try lowering the key.

If the lowest notes are hard to hit, you can alternatively shift them up to around mid1G#.

It’s a track that’s sure to hype up any J-rock fan, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

This is the song used as the opening theme for the anime A Certain Scientific Railgun.

Personally, I like the key change into the final chorus.

It gets even more exciting if you can choose the anime footage as the background.

Do you remember that song that makes you want to start dancing the moment you hear it? Loved by people of all ages, this track is a perfect dance number for graduation parties.

Released in October 2016 by Gen Hoshino, it also made waves as the theme song for the drama “We Married as a Job!” (Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu).

With lyrics that brilliantly capture modern views on love and a pop, catchy melody, it never fails to put you in a good mood.

Why not bring back that dance—which is sure to make you the star of any performance—and give it another try?

Meltsupercell28rank/position

Hatsune Miku "Melt"

It’s a Vocaloid song.

It’s so famous that it has over six million video views.

The song sings of a delicate maiden’s crush, but when it’s performed by a rugged, masculine singer, the contrast is amusing and really hypes up the crowd.

It also gets lively if you turn the lyrics into a parody version.
