YOASOBI Popular Song Rankings: Hit Songs, Masterpieces, and Latest [2026] (11–20)
Watch me!YOASOBI15rank/position

YOASOBI is a music duo known for their poppy, catchy sound and storytelling-driven lyrics.
Released in May 2025, this track was written as the opening theme for the anime Witch Watch.
It created a major buzz right after release, debuting at No.
1 on the Oricon Weekly Digital Singles chart.
Based on a short story by Kenta Shinohara, the author of the original manga, the song is packed with the protagonist’s innocent, adorable charm.
Ikura’s clear, transparent vocals add a playful touch to the bright, comical arrangement, making it a song that naturally puts a smile on your face.
Its bouncy melody instantly lights up any venue, making it perfect for cultural festival stages or wedding performances.
It’s a pop tune that colors any party—fun for everyone to enjoy with handclaps all around.
Trace that dreamYOASOBI16rank/position

Ano Yume wo Nazotte has a very wide vocal range.
It’s written in a range from D#3 to E5, with the low notes extending more than in other YOASOBI songs.
Speaking of YOASOBI, you probably think of especially high choruses! They’re a perfect fit for this theme.
The A melody stays in the low range, but even there, keep your throat open and let your breath flow.
Making a surprised face helps open the throat—try to maintain that state as you head into the chorus.
In the chorus, you’ll encounter long sustained notes, so engage your lower abdomen to keep your body steady and send your voice straight out with confidence.
That way, your breath will flow well and you can sing smoothly without your voice catching.
Give it lots of tries!
Gentle CometYOASOBI17rank/position

Since the overall vocal range is C4–F5, one of my male voice-training students sang it an octave lower! The rhythm is steady and the melody is easy to follow, so it might be just right for women to sing in the original key and for men to sing an octave down.
When singing, the key is to avoid belting and base your voice on falsetto.
If you’re not used to high notes, practice humming.
If you hum using your throat, your singing voice will also stay throaty, so use more breath than you think and hum lightly.
I want you to take in a lot of air through your mouth, but if your chest expands when you inhale, it becomes chest breathing and creates tension.
Relax your shoulders and let the breath go into your abdomen instead.
After that, lightly hold your breath for a moment to prepare, then hum gently—this makes it easier to grasp the right sensation!
HEART BEATYOASOBI18rank/position

This is a song that gives you the courage to take a strong step toward the future.
Created by YOASOBI to reflect the thoughts of 1,000 eighteen-year-olds, it was released in December 2023.
It also serves as the theme song for NHK’s special program “YOASOBI 18-sai Matsuri (18 Festival).” Centered on personal growth and self-discovery, the song expresses the struggles and hopes of young people through the beat of the heart.
It’s a must-listen for high school students approaching graduation and for anyone about to dive into a new environment.
While cherishing your true self, you’ll surely find the courage to face forward and keep moving ahead.
EncoreYOASOBI19rank/position

It’s a masterpiece by YOASOBI that begins with a gentle piano tone and sings of the hearts of people facing a world on the brink of the end.
As the end of the world draws near, it delicately portrays the subtle emotions of a protagonist who once was hurt by music yet finds the courage to face sound again.
The strong will of those who love music and strive to live alongside it resonates with the beautiful melody and strikes the heart.
A gem from the album “THE BOOK,” recorded in January 2021, it was also featured as the song in Google’s Pixel 5 commercial.
This moving work is one you’ll want to hear if you seek life’s meaning through music, have been saved by music, or wish to etch precious moments with loved ones into your heart.

This is the fourth digital single by YOASOBI, a duo that turns novels into music.
Released in July 2020, it was also included on their first EP, THE BOOK.
The song was selected as the theme for a film based on the original novel.
Its comfortable mid-tempo feel and chord progressions that change character from scene to scene draw listeners in.
The quiet of a morning after a breakup and ikura’s transparent vocals merge to express a tender, wavering emotion.
The arrangement, which incorporates everyday sounds, and the lyrics—blending resignation with lingering attachment—wrap the entire track in a pleasing atmosphere.
The delicate shifts in sound serve as elements that change the impression as if the key had modulated.
With each listen, you can sink deeper into the protagonist’s feelings—please savor that lingering afterglow.
It also makes a great soundtrack for time spent alone.

A song of hope woven together with the pure voices of children.
Its powerful message—that small actions can change the world—perfectly matches the beautifully clear, translucent vocals.
Chosen as the theme song for NHK’s SDGs program series for children, “Hirogare! Irotoridori,” it was also broadcast on “Minna no Uta” in October and November 2021.
With its gentle melody, grand soundscape, and the children’s soaring voices creating a rich harmony, this work delivers a moving experience that resonates deeply.
It’s also recommended as a piece for choir practice or for singing at school events.
