Romance at the Ends of the EarthŌe Yutaka
Oe Hiroshi’s masterpiece “Saihate Roman,” noted for its grand melody, features a very relaxed tempo.
As a result, each note is relatively long, yet there are well-placed rests throughout.
While there are moments with the delicate vocal lines characteristic of enka, the extremely slow tempo makes the singing feel closer to 1970s pop.
To handle the abundance of long tones, it’s recommended to add dynamic nuance and avoid starting with a loud volume right away.
Woman of FateŌe Yutaka
Among Hiroshi Oe’s songs, the one I especially recommend to women is Sadame no Onna.
Although this piece falls into the so-called “onna-uta” (women’s song) category, it leans more toward kayōkyoku than straight enka, so you won’t find the delicate, ornamented vibrato runs—driven by dramatic dynamics—that are typical of many onna-uta.
In fact, there’s only one clear instance of kobushi (traditional enka ornamentation) in the chorus, making it a fairly easy song to sing.
The range is somewhat wide, so I recommend carefully determining the most suitable key before performing.
Instead of goodbyeTUBE × GACKT
This gem of a ballad features a beautiful harmony created by the collaboration between TUBE and GACKT that resonates deeply in the heart.
Their two voices gently sing about the universal themes of encounters and farewells.
The music video stars Yutaka Matsushige and Kenichi Endo, whose wordless drama delivers a profoundly moving performance.
Released in February 2024, the song was first unveiled at the FNS Music Festival in December 2023, touching the hearts of many.
It’s a heartwarming piece I recommend to those who have experienced parting with a loved one or who wish to express their gratitude to someone dear.
Cherry Kiss ~It’s gonna explode~KOTOKO
The theme song for a bishoujo game by KOTOKO, known for its brisk tempo and catchy melody, was produced in March 2003 as the theme for the 18+ romance adventure game “Colorful Kiss ~12 Heart-Pounding Moments!~.” With lyrics by KOTOKO and composition/arrangement by C.G mix, it was later included in I’ve Sound’s compilation album “SHORT CIRCUIT” in November of the same year.
This track is often hailed as a landmark denpa song, featuring highly entertaining production with voice actor-style spoken lines and unforgettable phrases.
In June 2022, a remake version was included on the album “Sweet Cyclone -☆Yay☆-,” winning over a new generation of fans.
Its distinctive lyrics and melody, along with a fun call-and-response structure, make it perfect for getting everyone pumped up at karaoke.
After the early-summer rainONEGRAM
ONEGRAM’s richly layered track deftly weaves elements of soul, disco, and city pop into the mellow essence of lovers rock.
Its straightforward, heartfelt lyrics blend seamlessly with a groovy sound, balancing urban sophistication with warm expressiveness.
Released as a 7-inch vinyl by Flower Records in June 2024, it features a funky disco-reggae cover of “It’s Just Begun” on the B-side.
The same month saw the release of the album “THIS IS US,” which drew attention for further deepening the band’s musicality.
With its inviting groove and urbane mellowness, this piece is perfect for a calm night drive or a relaxing moment—and it’s also a great choice to color special times with someone important.
Scorpio womanMikawa Ken’ichi
“Onna no Scorpion,” the 25th single by Kenichi Mikawa, was released in 1972.
It’s distinctive for beginning with the word “iie” (“No”), and it’s one of his most widely recognized songs.
According to one interpretation, the lyrics that start with “No” convey: even if you tell me to break up, my answer is no.
If you think I’m an easy, understanding woman, you’re gravely mistaken.
You may think this is just a fling, but I won’t end it.
You might find it strange, but I’m single‑minded to the point of staking my life on it.
If that’s the intended meaning, it fits remarkably well and feels convincing, doesn’t it? Taking time to savor the lyrics is one way to enjoy a song, so give it a try if you like.

I came to say goodbye.asagao
It’s a piece that gently rouses emotions slumbering somewhere in your heart.
Released in April 2025, it’s the debut work by Vocaloid producer Asagao.
With a guitar-rock vibe, it leaves a strikingly nostalgic atmosphere.
The lyrics, which bid farewell to loved ones, awaken bittersweet memories that everyone carries and press deep on the heart.
You can feel traces of lingering attachment and regret in every turn of phrase.
It’s a song I’d recommend when you want to look back on the past, or around the time of graduating from school.
