RPGSEKAI NO OWARI

SEKAI NO OWARI「RPG」

SEKAI NO OWARI’s “RPG” is a song that’s popular with children as well.

Since it was used as the theme song for the movie “Crayon Shin-chan: Very Tasty! B-Class Gourmet Survival!!,” many kids are probably familiar with it.

The march-like rhythm is easy for children to follow, and the slow tempo makes it easier to hit the notes.

The simple structure—verse A, verse B, and chorus—is also easy to remember.

Although it was released in 2013 and is a bit older, it’s still widely recognized and remains popular, so there’s no need to worry.

Be sure to try singing it at karaoke.

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.
