Say I doTravis Japan

Travis Japan – ‘Say I do’ Music Video

An exquisite love song that portrays the feeling of being in love with pure sincerity.

Serving as a centerpiece of the double A-side CD single to be released in March 2025, it has been selected as the theme song for the drama “Honnō Switch.” Its heartwarming melody, which gently embraces the precious moment of pledging eternal love, is truly the essence of this work.

It’s a song we especially recommend for those who wish to spend special moments with the one they love.

YoursSuda Masaki

Masaki Suda 'Yours'

It’s the theme song for the much-talked-about Nippon TV drama “The Best Teacher: One Year Later, I Was ■ by My Student.” This song was written specifically for the drama by Masaki Suda, who also successfully held a concert at the Budokan in early 2023.

It’s packed with Suda’s heartfelt feelings, and it’s guaranteed to be a hit at karaoke.

The build-up to the chorus—practically Suda’s signature style—really soars, so trying to imitate Suda when you sing it might be the best move!

Edge of DaysKis-my-ft2

Kis-My-Ft2 / 「Edge of Days」Music Video

It’s a rock tune by Kis-My-Ft2 with an ultra-solid, distorted sound that’s seriously cool.

The wild vocals riding over that destructive sound feel incredibly immersive, too.

When you sing it at karaoke, go all out—match the boldness of that powerful sound.

And for the chorus, sing with a sense of release, as if light is breaking through, and really let it feel good!
