It’s a masterpiece that wraps you in a mysterious sense of liberation, as if, upon emerging from a long tunnel, a bright and open scene unfolds before your eyes.

Featured on dip’s third album, “Love to Sleep.” Although there are no lyrics in the song, its structure undulates like a story—befitting the somewhat literary title.

Its quiet, beautiful sense of motion inspires the courage to pursue your goals with stoic determination.

This is a signature work by doriko, who has produced numerous heart-wrenching Vocaloid ballads.

While this song isn’t a ballad, its wistful vocals and melody still hit you right in the heart.

The lyrics tell a story of overflowing feelings for someone you love and a forbidden romance.

In November 2010, it was released as the album “Romeo and Cinderella,” which reached No.

It’s a perfect track for those in the thick of their youth.

Isn’t it rarer to find someone who knows Hatsune Miku but doesn’t know this song? It’s quite an old track, but that’s exactly why it’s a beloved one by many.

Truly a song for girls.

Even the famous Sachiko Kobayashi has covered it, so if someone is a bit hesitant about VOCALOID, it might be good to introduce them to her version first.

ROCKET DIVEhide with Spread Beaver

A powerful rock number that carries a message of facing forward and charging ahead.

Despite its edgy sound, the use of the canon progression gives it a sense of familiarity.

It’s a beloved classic that offers courage and hope while resonating with the feelings of young people stuck in everyday monotony or vague anxiety.

Released by hide with Spread Beaver in January 1998, the song debuted at No.

4 on the Oricon charts and earned Double Platinum certification.

It was also used as the opening theme for the TV anime AWOL -Absent Without Leave- and in a Mizuno commercial.

Highly recommended for those who want to take a step beyond a passive stance or are hesitating before a new challenge.

ROLLiri

iri – Roll (Official Audio)
ROLLiri

A digital-only single by iri released in December 2022.

When you hear iri singing this, some people might momentarily think, “Wait, is this a male singer?” just from the tone of her voice—but of course, iri is a woman! That’s why I can confidently recommend this as a karaoke pick for women with lower voices.

The vocal melody itself is relatively simple, but the key to singing this well is how faithfully you can reproduce the feel of the 16-beat groove.

I encourage you to study that aspect carefully and give it a try.

The important point is to really feel the off-beats as you sing.

Those days when it stayed at the top of the Nico Nico Douga rankings—many of you surely remember.

This smash hit by iroha was released in 2008.

A drum and bass track with a fantastical atmosphere, it’s both cutting-edge and decadent in its finish.

It’s precisely because it holds those two extremes that it captured the hearts of Vocaloid fans.

The fragile worldview depicted in the lyrics is also captivating.

Back during the boom, it was a popular choice for “utaite” cover videos, wasn’t it?
