Let’s give it a tryWANIMA

This is the first digital-only single by WANIMA, a three-piece rock band from Kumamoto that’s arguably the most popular among melodic hardcore bands in today’s J-pop scene.

It’s a cover arranged from the English folk song “The Picnic,” and its positive message set to a melody everyone knows from childhood is sure to lift your spirits.

With lyrics that teach the importance of taking on challenges and a driving sound, it seems perfect to perform at school cultural festivals.

It’s a simple song, so any band playing it on stage is guaranteed to get the crowd going—an unmistakable rock tune.

I think this is the most famous song by Golden Bomber.

It’s often played on TV and really gets people going at festivals and karaoke.

There’s choreography in the song, and by learning it, you can create a sense of unity when singing at karaoke.

It seems to get the crowd really hyped at festivals and the like.

It’s a blast at karaoke when you go with people who know it.

Also, since all the members are from Kansai, their MCs are really funny.

It’s a killer tune by the hugely popular band Porno Graffitti.

The song stays in a high register, so it’s tough to sing at karaoke, but if you can pull it off, it’s incredibly cool.

Porno Graffitti has lots of other great tracks too, so I definitely recommend giving them a listen.
