Feeling super duper great!denpagumi.inc
Packed with call-and-response parts that make you want to shout along, you can practically see the sense of unity at a live show.
This track is a single released by Dempagumi.inc in November 2016, and it gained huge popularity as the opening theme for the TV anime The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.
It reached No.
5 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.
This song gives you an invincible power to overcome any hardship, so it’s perfect for times when you’re feeling low on motivation.
Give it a listen, and you’ll be in top form in no time!
Oh, sake!Yoshi Ikuzo
Men in their 60s are the generation that experienced the dawn of kayōkyoku, rock, and folk music, and they can also be said to be very familiar with enka.
In particular, many have deep knowledge of modern enka, which differs from those based on traditional folk songs.
The song I recommend is Yosh Ikuzo’s “Sake yo.” As an enka piece, it is very easy to sing, with no kobushi that require complex pitch ornamentations.
The vocal range is also not wide—mid1 C# to mid2 F—so even men in their 60s, an age when projecting the voice can become difficult, should be able to sing it comfortably.
SignTakemura Nobukazu
Released in 2001 by Nobukazu Takemura, a leading figure in Japan’s electronica scene, Sign is a landmark album where avant-garde experimentation and pop sensibilities blend with exquisite balance.
Created in collaboration with a visual artist, the work unfolds like a sonic kaleidoscope, with finely chopped beats and countless electronic tones sparkling in constant motion.
Though it contains no lyrics, the title—meaning “sign” or “omen”—and the tracklist evoke a narrative of setting out toward a new world.
Experimental yet tinged with nostalgia, its carefully woven melodies let you fully savor Takemura’s singular, one-of-a-kind sound.
Farewell, shadow of youthMori Shinichi
This is a gem of “melancholic pop” whose poetic worldview, woven by ZARD’s Izumi Sakai, strikes straight to the heart.
Released in November 2004 as Shinichi Mori’s 109th single, the song features music by Aika Ohno, creating a sound that clearly sets it apart from traditional enka.
Nostalgia for a youth that has passed and a resolve to walk into the future without clear answers seep deeply into the soul through Mori’s richly expressive vocals.
It was performed at the 55th NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen, etching itself into many people’s memories.
If you listen to it in those moments when you pause in the journey of life and look back on the past, you may find yourself wrapped in a feeling that is both achingly sad and warmly comforting.
The Northernmost RouteKouzai Kaori
This signature song by Kaori Kozai portrays a woman’s heart as she overcomes the pain of a broken heart and vows to start anew on a ship bound for the north.
The piece embodies both the profound sorrow that turns love into resentment and the iron resolve to cast off the past and never look back.
Blended with Kozai’s emotionally rich vocals, it strangely yet powerfully conveys the strength of a woman determined to rise from the brink of despair.
Released in March 2006 as her commemorative 20th-anniversary single, it became a long-running hit that remained on the Oricon charts for 52 weeks and was performed on that year’s NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen.
It was later included on the album “20th Anniversary Kaori Kozai Single Collection.” The song will deeply resonate with anyone resolved to make a fresh start in life.
The die is cast.L’Arc〜en〜Ciel
An exhilarating, up-tempo number that evokes the spirit of youthful rock, bursting with a sense of speed! Included on the single “Lies and Truth,” released in November 1996, this track pairs sharp perspectives—like inescapable fate and irony toward society—with a bright, uplifting sound.
Though a B-side, it ranked 8th in a fan vote for live performances in 2008, a testament to its enduring popularity.
If you’re facing a major decision and feel there’s no turning back, listening to it might mysteriously fill you with the energy to look ahead.
SAKKImei-chan
This is the first song released by Mei-chan after resuming his activities, which came out in July 2025.
Centered on themes of frustration with modern society and self-discipline, Mei-chan himself also took part in writing the lyrics.
His vocals—laced with screams and masterful vibrato—dance over an aggressive mixture rock sound, sounding like a cry straight from the soul.
You can feel his bristling life force coming through directly.
For anyone who wants to change something or fire themselves up, this track will surely serve as a powerful cheer.
