Nagagucchan!! [Baby’s breath]

This is a song whose main character is Nagagucchan, the rain boots.

Cat, and sometimes a lionYokoyama Daisuke / Mitani Takumi53rank/position

Cat, Sometimes Lion / Keropons + Tomohiko Fujimoto

It’s an animal-themed song featuring a cat and a monkey, as well as a panda and a goldfish.

The song ends with the phrase “Pū-pu!” Songs popular with children use very funny onomatopoeia, don’t they? Both the lyrics and the music were created by Tomohiko Fujimoto.

Pancakes are wonderful.Yokoyama Daisuke / Mitani Takumi55rank/position

Pancakes are wonderful.

This song, “Hotcakes Are Wonderful,” has a slightly laid-back tone that feels pleasant.

As you listen, your heart gradually becomes round like a hotcake, and you get a warm, toasty feeling—it’s a curious little tune.

Everyone, everyone, everyoneYokoyama Daisuke / Mitani Takumi56rank/position

Everyone, everyone, everyone — Singing Men and Women (Okaasan to Issho)

When we become adults, we always introduce ourselves when we meet someone for the first time.

But as this song suggests, maybe that wasn’t necessary when we were children.

Thinking back, I don’t remember ever making a point of giving my name before playing.

A gentle world where everyone holds hands and becomes friends—that thought puts my heart at ease.

Dream-colored WaltzYokoyama Daisuke / Mitani Takumi58rank/position

Inotomo – Dream-colored Waltz (live on musica da Leda, 2017-02-21)

Wrap yourself in a blanket and close your eyes—cotton-candy clouds spread out before you.

Centered on a recorder that conjures a fantastical world, this waltz features lovely harmonies that are a highlight.

Once Mom and Dad are fast asleep, this is how children go adventuring in their dreams.

Kakkun the crow can talk with all sorts of animals.

But as for what they talk about…

As you listen, you can’t help but break into a gentle smile—it’s a heartwarming, fun song.

The melody is easy to remember, so it’s a favorite among little children too.

Gacha-gocha-gumbo!Yokoyama Daisuke / Mitani Takumi60rank/position

Karaoke JOYSOUND (Cover) Gacha-Gocha Gumbo! / Daisuke Yokoyama, Takumi Mitani (Original key) Tried singing

It sings that when you put various things together and mix them, all kinds of soups are created.

They throw in anything—food, emotions, you name it.

But each time, the flavor changes, teaching the children about many wonderful tastes.

It’s a song you’ll want to sing while cooking.
