YUKI’s Most Popular Songs Ranking [2026]

Excessive synchronicityYU-KI29rank/position

YUKI 'Excessive Synchronicity'

A single by YUKI, the singer from JUDY AND MARY, released in February 2019.

As you’d expect from YUKI, who’s been popular since the JUDY AND MARY days for her distinctive high-tone voice, that high register is alive and well in this song too! It’s an excellent choice for women with higher voices to sing at karaoke.

Be sure to pay close attention so the rhythm doesn’t tangle in the slightly fast-paced A-melody section.

Also, since YUKI’s own singing style is quite distinctive, another key point is to avoid turning it into an impersonation.

That said, it’s probably a fun song even if you do sing it like an impression, haha.

TraumereiYU-KI30rank/position

YUKI “Traumerei”

The single “Traumerei,” released in 2018, is a song by YUKI, former vocalist of JUDY AND MARY, and was used as the theme song for the film “Cafe Funiculi Funicula” (Literally: “Before the Coffee Gets Cold”).

The title means “reverie,” and the song is striking for its grand scale and gentle sound.

In the music video—cheerful and innocent throughout—there’s a brief nighttime camping scene toward the end.

This song, which gently accompanies those moments when you want to calm your heart, might offer hints for being yourself as you take a breather while camping.

Live for loveYU-KI31rank/position

Yuki Isoya-Ai ni ikite (subtitulado al español)

“Ai ni Ikite” (“Living for Love”) is a track included on YUKI’s solo debut album PRISMIC, released in 2002.

YUKI not only wrote the lyrics and composed the music, but also handled the arrangement, and it’s said that Spitz performed on the recording.

The lyrics carry the message, “No matter what happens, I love you,” blending sweetness with poignancy in a way that resonates deeply and can bring you to tears.

Although it wasn’t released as a single, it’s a quietly beloved classic—definitely give it a listen!

This commercial expresses the bear depicted on Sapporo Senshuan’s “Yama-Oyaji” in a pop-style animation.

The unique design—a bear wearing skis and carrying a salmon on its back—comes across as fun thanks to the cute animation.

Further highlighting this pop imagery is the original “Yama-Oyaji” song performed by YUKI.

The lyrics are simple, merely describing the visuals, but combined with the light, breezy sound, they convey a bright, cheerful mood.

SO.YA.NEWEST END × YUKI33rank/position

SO.YA.NA

A unique rap song that puts Kansai dialect front and center.

WEST END×YUKI—comprising Koji Imada, Koji Higashino, and Yukiko Takeuchi—was formed to create an Osaka-dialect version of EAST END×YURI’s “DA.YO.NE.” Released in February 1995, the track peaked at No.

6 on the Oricon Weekly Chart, surpassing the original’s No.

7—a notable achievement.

Its lyrics humorously weave in everyday Kansai conversation and relatable “been there” moments, giving it a friendly charm that makes Kansai natives crack a smile.

Highly recommended for those from the Kansai region, anyone fond of Kansai dialect, or listeners who enjoy humorous tracks with a touch of comedy.

SO YA NAWEST END×YUKI (from O.P.D.)34rank/position

West End X Yuki – SO.YA.NA

A song released as the Osaka-dialect version of DA.YO.NE.

Koji Imada and Koji Higashino, who were frequently appearing on TV at the time, took part, with Yukiko Takeuchi serving as the main vocalist.

The distinctive Kansai interjection “soya na—” stuck in listeners’ ears, and it even ended up surpassing the original DA.YO.NE on the Oricon weekly charts.

66dbYU-KI35rank/position

YUKI 66db.flv

The song’s title is pronounced “Rokujuuroku Deshiberu” (Sixty-Six Decibels).

During recording, members of Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra were invited, resulting in a gently subdued, quiet sound.

It’s also a track for which YUKI not only wrote the lyrics but handled the composition, arrangement, and production as well.
