Five Chivalrous Men of the Blue CloudsKitajima Saburō
Saburo Kitajima’s song “Seiun Gonin Otoko,” released in 1966, has the feel of traditional enka, with a notably relaxed tempo.
Precisely because the tempo is laid-back, the vocal line is quite intense, with pitch moving up and down at a somewhat brisk pace.
That might sound difficult, but the pitch movements where the kobushi (melismatic ornament typical of enka) appears are relatively gentle, so the kobushi itself isn’t especially hard.
However, because there are many long sustained notes and few rests, it’s important to steady your breathing well before you start singing.
Life is in a rush.namu abedabutsu
Nam Amida Butsu are a three-piece rock band known as an “Aloha rock” act.
Despite the self-proclaimed Aloha influence, that element isn’t especially strong; at their core they’re more like catchy Japanese rock, and they’ve released many easy-to-listen-to tracks.
Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is “Namu ABEda Butsu.” The vocals have a bit of drive, but the range isn’t very wide and it sits mostly in the mid register, making it very easy to sing.
Definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

A timeless masterpiece that strikes a chord in the heart! It vividly captures the feelings of young people in the 1970s.

The folk-style guitar and memorable melody beautifully bring the lyrics’ worldview to life.
Highly recommended for those standing at a crossroads in life or seeking to face themselves.

The song is included on his digital-only EP “27,” released in 2019, and it was also used in the SAHARA “Aisare Tiger Campaign 2019 SUMMER” commercial.
His vocals match the rhythmic sound beautifully, evoking the hot yet somehow refreshing air of summer.
The stylish production also makes it perfect for a drive, among other outings.

Haruomi Kimishima, whose energetic activities as a guitarist—participating in live performances and recordings with various artists and providing compositions—have drawn widespread attention.
The track “Sekai wa Koko de Mawaru yo,” released ahead of his first album, “Eitai suru Kemuri,” also garnered buzz for its music video, which presents a beautiful world view directed by photographer Kanade Hamamoto.
The contrast between the airy yet spacious ensemble and his delicate, ephemeral vocals is soothing to the heart just by listening.

Lost Property of YouthHori Chiemi

12 on the Oricon charts.
Amid her busy schedule, it is said to have brought Hori herself a sense of comfort.
