Even when (you/it) grow(s) upYamano Satoko16rank/position

If you’re looking for a song to perform at a year-end recital for children about to graduate from kindergarten, how about this heartwarming message song? Its lyrics—recalling the many times kids argued with friends, made up, and how those everyday moments are proof of their growth—are sure to bring listeners to tears.

Sung by Satoko Yamano and Kazuho Hatsumi, the piece was included on the album “Graduation Best Songs,” released in October 2010, and has been passed down and sung at many preschools and kindergartens.

One of its charms is the call-and-response structure between the children’s parts and the parts sung by teachers or parents.

It’s filled with warmth—there’s even an anecdote that the songwriter was moved to tears during the recording.

Why not showcase it at the graduation ceremony or thank-you party, along with the children’s growth?

This song expresses the journey bananas take before they reach us and the love people have for one of everyone’s favorite fruits.

Its lively atmosphere and upbeat, light rhythm are striking, conveying both a fondness for bananas and how delicious they are.

The choreography also captures a rhythm-focused fun, centered on moves like swaying the hips and hands from side to side.

By waving your hands broadly and singing the chorus together, you can enjoy both your affection for bananas and a sense of unity with friends.

Monorail SongYamano Satoko18rank/position

This is a song titled “Monorail no Uta,” with lyrics by Akira Ito and music by Asei Kobayashi.

Depending on where you live, you might not get many chances to ride a monorail, so some people may not know how it differs from trains or the Shinkansen.

If that’s the case, give this song a listen.

It sings about what’s good and convenient about monorails.

The lyrics are written from the monorail’s point of view, too, expressing feelings as if it’s competing with other vehicles—which is kind of adorable.
