Stevie Wonder – I Just Called To Say I Love You (Music Video)

Stevie Wonder was one of the artists who energized the new soul scene in the 1970s.

While contemporaries like Marvin Gaye, Donny Hathaway, and Curtis Mayfield sadly passed away early, he continues to be active even today.

Because of that, many middle school students likely know who Stevie Wonder is.

A song of his I especially recommend is “I Just Called To Say I Love You.” Black music can be challenging, and this track also features some difficult vocal improvisations, but if you’re just aiming to hit the notes, it doesn’t require a particularly high range, so I think it’s quite singable.

When it comes to signature tracks by Linkin Park, the band that dominated the 2000s alternative rock scene, this song stands out.

Featured on the album Meteora, it’s marked by its fierce guitar riffs and Chester Bennington’s powerful vocals.

The lyrics, which depict struggles with self-identity and resistance to others’ expectations, resonated with many.

ABBA – Dancing Queen (Official Music Video)

A timeless hit by ABBA, the world-famous pop group from Sweden.

The moment that sparkling piano intro begins, it’s like magic—everyone can’t help but smile.

The lyrics depict a night when a 17-year-old girl becomes the star of the dance floor, and just by listening, you can feel the exhilaration of being the story’s protagonist yourself.

Released as a single in 1976, the song became ABBA’s only number-one hit on the U.S.

charts.

It’s also used in an iconic scene in the film Mamma Mia!, so I think it’s known across generations.

Sing it at karaoke, and it’s guaranteed to bring everyone together.

Lose YourselfEminem64rank/position

Eminem – Lose Yourself

Here’s a classic track to introduce: Eminem’s “Lose Yourself,” one of the most famous US hip-hop songs in Japan.

It’s also known as the theme song for the film 8 Mile.

I think everyone’s heard it at least once.

This track doesn’t feature Eminem’s specialty of ultra-fast rapping or “fastest rap.” However, it’s still a piece with a very challenging flow.

In particular, the flow in the verses leading up to the hook is quite difficult, so it’s a good idea to practice it repeatedly and find your own flow and groove.

My Chemical Romance – Welcome To The Black Parade [Official Music Video] [HD]

They were an American rock band that suddenly disbanded in 2013, but this song is their signature track.

It’s a pretty rock-heavy number with plenty of impact, and for some reason it’s also addictive—you end up listening to it over and over.

Sorry if the addiction keeps you from getting any studying done…
