I’d like to recommend Tokyo Shoki Shodo’s “Rock’n’Roll” as a cover song for beginner bands with a female vocalist who want to unleash their uncontrollable impulses through music! Released in 2019, it closes out their debut album, and as the band name and song title suggest, it’s a classic that blasts full-throttle punk-to-rock’n’roll fueled by pure primal impulse.

With a BPM over 200, this track is more about throwing your whole body and spirit into it than about technical prowess, so I want the whole band to unite and play without getting shaken off by the speed.

The toughest part is probably the drums: the punky two-beat in the intro will leave you behind if you let your guard down, so work hard to nail your role—keeping solid time amid the frenzy!

A song that portrays the changing seasons in a romantic light.

Created by singer-songwriter Naotaro Moriyama, it was released in January 2024 and written as the theme song for the anime Ochibi-san.

The lyrics weave in seasonal scenery—spring’s cherry blossoms, summer’s water lilies, autumn’s fragrant olive, and winter’s plum blossoms—leaving a very beautiful impression.

The harmony of the chill sound and the gentle vocals is lovely as well.

Highly recommended for those who want to cherish the small moments of everyday life.

While many of Chisato Moritaka’s songs are quite upbeat, the hit that especially made waves at the time as a quirky novelty—and also serves as a learning song—is “Rock ’n’ Roll Prefectural Capitals.” There were various cover versions by idols on TV shows, but this time, please enjoy her 2015 self-cover.
