Dramaturgy – Eve MV

The rhythmical cutting guitar from the intro instantly draws listeners into a unique world.

Crafted by Eve, who enjoys enormous support as a singer-songwriter, the track was released in October 2017 and is also included on the album Culture from the same year.

Its decadent yet danceable beat feels great, while the whirlwind of melodies and wordplay-like lyrics creates an addictive pull.

Hiiragi Magnetite – Marshall Maximizer / KAFU

You’ll find yourself irresistibly drawn in by the exhilarating, fast-paced melody.

Featuring KAFU, “Marshall Maximizer” by Vocaloid producer Hiiragi Magnetite is a 2021 release.

The low end that chases the rolling rhythm feels so good! The striking development in the pre-chorus works as a hook, which is exactly why the chorus hits so explosively.

It’s the kind of song that makes you want to let your emotions out and shout along first and foremost.

Perfect for when you want to get pumped up or need a push forward.

A high-speed tune masterpiece you’ll want to sing at karaoke right now!

Hated by Life

With the theme of views on life and death, its lyrics lay bare an attachment to life and raw ego, winning fervent support especially among young listeners, and it’s a signature work with total global streams in the hundreds of millions.

A novelization under the same title has been set for 2026, and it’s a classic Vocaloid hit with strong literary acclaim.

Mafumafu’s cover is also very famous, but because the vocal range is extremely high, the original track is recommended.

From the opening to the chorus, it’s sung quietly with a conversational feel, but just before the chorus the emotion explodes and the vocals turn intense.

If you focus on creating that contrast here, the song comes together and you can sing it with a great vibe.

In the hype sections, try singing clearly and crisply.

Melancholic / Junky feat. Kagamine Rin

A pop and cute “Melancholic.” If you can keep the rhythm steady without rushing through the fast section of the B verse, you can aim for a solid high score with this Vocaloid song.

The overall range is A#3 to D5, which isn’t too high, so it shouldn’t be a problem range-wise.

It’s a bouncy, cute track, so keep your expression bright and sing with a smile—your pitch won’t drop and your voice will stay steady.

In the fast B-verse section, keep your facial muscles lifted, and make sure to cut off the lyrics crisply at the right spots; that should keep the pitch bar from drifting.

In the chorus, gently sway your head side to side while singing to boost the cuteness and help you relax—two birds with one stone!

Heat Anomaly / Iyowa feat. Rei Adachi

Released in October 2022, the song features Rei Adachi’s vocals resonating as if pleading with a world coming to an end.

The soundscape—an overwhelming blend of feverish delirium and unquenchable passion—is stunning.

The anxious, fast-paced beat and the piano tones somehow create an irresistibly pleasant addictiveness.

It won first place at VocaColle 2022 Autumn, and in May 2024 it was added to the game “Hatsune Miku: Colorful Stage!” (Project SEKAI).

It is also included on the album “Eiga, Hidamari, Sotsugyoushiki” (Film, Sunny Spot, Graduation Ceremony).

【VOCALOID Original】ECHO【Gumi English】

A signature work by Crusher-P, known as a star in the Vocaloid scene.

Released in December 2014, this piece is characterized by a captivating fusion of electronic rock and pop.

The lyrics, which sing of loneliness and the desire to connect with others, carry a powerful, heartfelt message that resonates with many listeners.

GUMI’s strong vocals further enhance the song’s appeal.

It became a major hit immediately after its release and received high praise within the Vocaloid community.

It’s a perfect track for middle schoolers on a journey of self-discovery.

Give it a listen when you want to face the feelings deep in your heart!

Uta-nee Yuki “Don’t Go” (remaster)

A delicate, heartrending song about parting with someone dear.

Released by Sota in October 2013, this track moved many listeners from the moment it came out.

Kae Yuki’s gentle vocals, the faintly nostalgic melody line, and the lyrics that capture the inexpressible emotions felt at the moment of farewell all strike straight to the heart.

I think it especially resonates when you listen to it after being separated from a friend or going through a heartbreak.
