That day, in that placeWANIMA32rank/position

WANIMA “That Day, That Place”

While WANIMA’s music is known for its up-tempo rhythms and powerful high-register vocals, they also have more relaxed songs with fewer high notes.

The song “Ano Hi, Ano Basho” is one of those—rather than forcefully rousing the listener, it gently stays close and soothes the heart.

Its lyrical message resonates with listeners, and the melody is characterized by a relatively narrow vocal range, making it easy to sing.

It’s a recommended number that even those who struggle with high notes can try with confidence.

JOY

JOY offers the heavy, fast beats and sound characteristic of a melodic hardcore band.

While it’s a coupling track, it still delivers the kind of message song that’s unmistakably WANIMA.

Precisely because the arrangement is a simple melodic hardcore style, the power of the words stands out front and center—wouldn’t you say that’s the essence of this track?

WANIMA “LIFE” / “Cheddar Flavor” OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO

This is “LIFE” by WANIMA, a three-piece rock band that has even performed on NHK’s Kōhaku Uta Gassen.

In the rock band scene, WANIMA are known for their bursting smiles—almost the group’s “smile representatives.” However, the expressions they show in “LIFE” are cool, highlighting their stylish edge.

If you listen closely to the lyrics, they convey a sense of negativity that reflects the harshness of reality, while singing about what we should do within it.

It’s one of WANIMA’s more intense tracks.

SLOWWANIMA39rank/position

SLOW

“SLOW” is a song that makes you feel like your emotions might burst just by listening or singing along.

It evokes the sea and summer, gently bringing back memories of some summer day or someone from the past.

It’s perfect as your companion on the way to the beach, and it’s a number we’d love for you to sing at summer karaoke.

It’s also recommended for those who think WANIMA’s songs might be too difficult for karaoke.

Since the style leans toward surf music, it should be easier for people who struggle with faster songs.

The overall pitch range stays low throughout, making it easy for anyone—regardless of gender—to sing.
