This is the song used as the opening theme for the anime Attack on Titan.

It was also performed at the 2013 Kohaku Uta Gassen, so it’s well-known and easy to get people excited.

Released as a single in September 2018, it was created as the theme song for the film “Ano Ko no, Toriko.” The song is a happy number that brightly portrays the thrill and flutter of falling in love.

The cute couple dance in the music video also became a hot topic.

In karaoke, if you sing with a smile to the light, catchy rhythm, you’re sure to captivate women.

It’s recommended for men who want to impress in front of someone they’re interested in, or when there’s a special someone in the room.

Meltsupercell27rank/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.
