Sakura, sakuraHattori Hiroko
Hiroko Hattori is known for having many songs with a mature melody, but among her works are some wrapped in a pop atmosphere.
The one I especially recommend is Sakura Sakura.
While this piece retains elements of traditional enka, it leans more toward kayōkyoku, featuring a vocal line with gently rising and falling pitches throughout.
There’s only one instance of kobushi (the characteristic enka vocal ornament) just before the chorus, so even those who aren’t fond of enka’s distinctive singing style should be able to sing it without trouble.
