Youth TrainYamamoto Airi
Airi Yamamoto, an idol from Fukuyama, Hiroshima Prefecture, laid the foundations for her entertainment career from a young age at a local dance school.
After performing with a local idol group, she debuted in 2017 as the center of Love Cocchi, the second unit of Last Idol.
While initially focusing on J-pop and idol pop, she joined the “× Junbungaku Shoujo Kagekidan” in 2022, taking on a new form of expression that fuses musical theater and music.
In 2023, she held her first solo live performance and also appeared in the musical FATALISM ≠ Re:Another story.
As a member of Ma’Scar’Piece, her performances—blending music and theater into a distinctive style—are recommended not only for idol fans but also for those who love drama and musicals.
Wings of YouthŌe Yutaka
Oe Hiroshi’s melancholy-filled classic “Wings of Youth.” This piece is characterized by a powerful singing style that evokes Saburo Kitajima.
When you hear “powerful singing,” you might think of shouting—a technique that uses a raspy voice—but in this song the power comes purely from musical dynamics and phrasing, with little use of special techniques like shouts.
Even the kobushi (melodic ornaments) appear relatively infrequently for this type of song and are not very difficult, so even beginners to enka can sing it without trouble.
senpainozomi
Noshi’s work, which portrays a bittersweet relationship with an older woman, is a captivating song told from the viewpoint of a junior who is drawn to yet bewildered by a senior exuding composure and allure.
Subtle nuances of complex emotions—sweet temptation and inner conflict, jealousy and possessiveness—are delicately expressed.
Released in August 2023, this track showcases the sharp insight and sensibility unique to Noshi, who is currently gaining attention especially among Gen Z.
It’s a perfect song for those who want to sing their heart out with emotion at karaoke.

Perpetual change—and that’s okay.Tendō Yoshimi
Yoshimi Tendo’s signature song “Shōshō Ruten Sore de Ii,” beloved for its warm melody.
Although it’s categorized as enka, it contains very few kobushi (ornamental scoops), so you won’t encounter phrases with rapid, repeated pitch rises and falls throughout the piece.
However, be aware that a long falsetto note appears toward the end of the chorus.
If falsetto feels difficult, try one of two approaches: lower the key and sing it in chest voice, or raise the key to make the falsetto easier to produce.
snowflowersleepy.ab
Formed in Sapporo, Hokkaido, the three-piece band sleepy.ab bases its sound in alternative rock while incorporating diverse elements such as indie rock and post-rock.
They made their indie debut in 2002 with the album “face the music,” and achieved their major-label debut in November 2009 with the album “paratroop” on Pony Canyon.
Characterized by melancholic, dreamlike soundscapes and gentle vocals, they won the inaugural CD Shop Award in 2009.
In addition to performing as a full band, they are active in an acoustic configuration as sleepy.ac and as the duo Nariyamauchi, featuring Naruyama and Yamauchi.
They are a perfect fit for music fans seeking a pleasant afterglow and a singular, immersive worldview.
Surely more than anyone else in the worldNagayama Miho
Released in 1992, this duet by Miho Nakayama and WANDS gained attention as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “Dareka ga Kanojo o Aishiteru” (“Someone Loves Her”).
Their sweet yet heartrending vocals leave a strong impression, and the love story—beginning with imagery that evokes the end of summer—strikes a chord.
Its message of a fateful reunion and the resolve to keep dreaming with a passion hotter than anyone’s blends perfectly with the drama’s narrative.
The song was also a commercial success, topping the Oricon weekly singles chart and selling over one million copies within just 20 days of its release.
Even now, thanks to frequent use on television and numerous artist covers, it remains widely recognized across generations.
Highly recommended for those who want to resonate with powerful feelings for a loved one and the pure determination to pursue one’s ideals.
Sepia feat. TOOBOEMori Calliope
Mori Calliope’s “Sepia” is a collaboration track with TOOBOE, released in April 2025.
The two artists’ vocal work blends beautifully, and the animated music video, created by Mori Calliope herself, is another highlight.
The lyrics depict protagonists living in the moment, fleetingly, continuing on despite carrying backward-looking feelings.
