It celebrates family happiness, and the music video features various families, highlighting the depth of their bonds.
It’s a song that warms the heart, both to watch and to listen to.
MalaTropical Bleyage
The PV features images of the Amazon’s great wilderness and African tribal people, and the song’s theme revolves around them.
The upbeat, repetitive sections make it incredibly catchy, and I think it’s a song packed with creative ideas.
J’adore HardcoreScooter
This is the first track that comes to mind when I think of “cool.” The carefully carved, deep bass beat makes it feel like a dancehall that’s super easy to move to.
It may sound a bit like house music, but it’s definitely trance with solid trance elements baked in.

It’s a song that’s guaranteed to boost your mood just by listening.
Since its 2009 release, it spent nine consecutive weeks at number one and achieved the remarkable feat of surpassing 100 million views on YouTube.
Packed with all of Girls’ Generation’s charm, this track brilliantly captures the excitement and anxiety of a girl falling in love.
The lyrics, sung over an up-tempo melody, bring back the thrill of a first crush.
It has enjoyed a resurgence on social media like TikTok and remains a beloved classic across generations.
Sing and dance to it with friends, and the fun is sure to double!
Grass Ain’t GreenerChris Brown
Pay attention to the PV, which has a drama-like level of quality.
The mid-tempo, alluring, mature vibe makes it a very Chris Brown-like track.
The laid-back pace gives it a dancehall feel that seems very easy to dance to.
ChildrenRobert Miles
It’s an incredibly popular trance track boasting 30 million views on YouTube.
The unique, mellow vibe of the intro is really cool.
The atmosphere of the song changes drastically between the first and second halves.
It’s so addictive that people even call it “drug music.”
Honnō-ji IncidentEgusupurōjon
It’s really popular right now, it’s educational, and it’s entertaining, so I think it’ll go over well.
The dancing is definitely good, but it’s not that difficult, and the chorus part—“Honnō-ji no Hen~♪”—is very easy, so I think everyone can dance to it.
