sparklerUeda Momoka
When it comes to a summer song by Momoka Ueda, the much-talked-about high school singer-songwriter, it has to be “Senko Hanabi.” It’s a 2021 single available on various streaming services, and it captures the delicate feelings of first love that are so characteristic of high school.
The lyrics depict the days of July spent yearning for a promised day in early August, and I imagine many people will feel their hearts race as they’re reminded of that time.
I think those who are currently experiencing high school life in real time will relate too, so definitely give it a listen!
Teacher, I want to die.sekai 22-ban
It’s a song whose surging emotion and heartrending vocals pierce the heart.
Created by No.
22 of the World, it was released in July 2024.
The protagonist’s inner conflict—implied by the title—is vividly portrayed through Hatsune Miku’s voice.
It brilliantly captures the feelings of young people struggling with the difficulties of life and anxiety about the future, and it truly shakes the listener.
It’s the kind of Vocaloid track you’ll want to hear when you’re having a hard time or feel like crying.
cocky; cheeky; saucy; impertinent; brazenNagayama Miho
Namiki by Miho Nakayama portrays a woman who bounces back strong after heartbreak.
Released in 1985, the song was created by two heavyweights: lyrics by Takashi Matsumoto and music by Kyōhei Tsutsumi.
The bold, confident woman suggested by the title Namiki (“Impertinent” or “Sassy”) also comes through in the cool melody.
While she fires off questions about why the breakup happened, she ultimately brushes them aside with a defiant, “Enough! I’m fine,” pushing away even her doubts.
When you find yourself brooding over a breakup, listen to this track and make a stylish comeback!
the state of the worldNakajima Miyuki
Miyuki Nakajima’s “Seijo” is a great song to sing gently at karaoke when you want something with a deep message.
It starts with a distinctive intro, and the opening lines are a strong point that can immediately capture the audience’s attention.
Since the same melody is repeated several times, it’s easy to try even if you’re not good at remembering complex song structures or melodies.
Because it carries a philosophical message, it creates a nice atmosphere if you focus on the lyrics and sing with emotion.
Coloration BluesNakanō Yoshie
Yoshie Nakano, the vocalist of the Osaka-born unit EGO-WRAPPIN’.
She’s a singer whose slightly husky voice exudes a mature mood and is incredibly captivating.
In “Shikisai no Blues,” which we’re introducing here, she uses that distinctive, alluring husky voice to beautifully convey a musical world that evokes the scenery of early Showa-era Japan.
Don’t you feel that just by listening, you can picture a somewhat rough-and-tumble cabaret with prewar Showa jazz drifting through the air? The singing and arrangement are by no means showy, yet they portray a neon-lit night district just like the title suggests—and it’s absolutely wonderful.
Mannequin in a uniformNogizaka 46
“Seifuku no Mannequin,” with Rina Ikoma in the center position.
It’s an idol song, but the four-on-the-floor beat gives it a disco feel, and although the steady, understated melody throughout makes it seem difficult at first listen, it’s actually surprisingly easy to sing.
Adding rhythmic dynamics makes it sound even better.
The chorus lyrics are memorable, and while the word “uniform” is something unique to students, this song is perfect for venting the frustrations you carry around day to day.
Great for stress relief, too!
Chikumagawa RiverItsuki Hiroshi
Singer Hiroshi Itsuki hails from Mihama, Mikata District, Fukui Prefecture.
His vocal prowess is such that actor Hiroki Matsukata, who studied singing alongside him, is said to have given up on becoming a singer because Itsuki was just too good.
Although he made his first debut in 1964, he didn’t score any hits, and under the name Hiroshi Itsuki he effectively debuted in 1971 with the smash hit “Yokohama Tasogare.” Spurred by the success of this song, he performed on NHK’s Kōhaku Uta Gassen, where he was often the final act, and he holds the all-time record for consecutive appearances.
While rooted in enka and mood kayō, he has pursued a flexible career, including collaborations with DA PUMP and releasing J-pop cover albums.
As of 2022, he continues to steadily release new songs and host the “Hiroshi Itsuki Theater” as its lead, making it impossible to take your eyes off his ongoing achievements.
Truly, he is a legend of the Japanese music scene who continues to define the times.
