Sorry for Being Cute feat. Chu-tan (CV: Saori Hayami)HONEY WORKS

Sorry for Being Cute feat. Chuutan (CV: Saori Hayami) / HoneyWorks

“Kawaikute Gomen feat.

Chu-tan (CV: Saori Hayami),” produced by the Japanese creator unit HoneyWorks, was released in November 2022 and became immensely popular among young people, including through its tie-in with the anime “Heroines Run the Show: The Unpopular Girl and the Secret Task.” Centered on the theme of self-esteem, this song celebrates the importance of self-love and self-acceptance, offering listeners positive energy.

From the perspective of the character Chu-tan, played by Saori Hayami, it conveys the importance of loving yourself and staying true to who you are without being swayed by others’ judgments.

It’s also great for karaoke, letting you enjoy expressing yourself in a positive way.

Pig Thunder (feat. Kaai Yuki)Yukopi

Yukopi – Pig Thunder (feat. Kaai Yuki)

Yukopi is a Vocaloid producer whose music is characterized by a surreal atmosphere with a subtle sense of cuteness.

Yukopi has created many masterpieces, but the one I particularly recommend as an easy-to-sing song for elementary school students is “Buta Thunder (feat.

Kaai Yuki).” Although the vocal range is slightly high at mid2 A# to high C, the overall range isn’t wide, so depending on the key, the difficulty can drop significantly even for elementary schoolers whose voices may be unstable.

It doesn’t require intricate techniques, and the melodic rises and falls are gentle, so consider adding it to your repertoire.

I am a bear.Utada Hikaru

[Hikaru Utada] I Am a Bear

It’s a humorous, gentle song with a nursery-rhyme feel.

Even people who are tone-deaf might be able to sing it comfortably without trying too hard.

At just two and a half minutes, it’s short, so it could be nice to remember as a soothing tune.

The overall vocal range is A3 to C5.

It may be a bit high, but if you sing in a soft tone, your voice will naturally lean on falsetto, which suits the song’s atmosphere.

Swaying side to side as you sing makes it even cuter! The lyrics and music are by Hikaru Utada, and the lyrics sound like a child speaking—that’s part of what makes it so charming.

There’s even a section with a greeting in French, blending playfulness and sophistication for a fun touch.

Try adding it to your karaoke lineup when you want a little break!
