The fire alarm won’t stop ringing.Mizutama Kamereon
A famous song that burst out from VOCALOID’s Hatsune Miku and continues to spread.
There are many “tried singing” videos, and it’s one of those tracks that seems likely to be sung for years to come.
Set in a school with studying, classes, and the chime, it captures a girl’s growing feelings for her upperclassman—a culmination of maidenly emotion.
Comparing her love to a fire alarm is an outstanding metaphor, and the straightforward lyrics that don’t invite over-interpretation are also great!

Takayan is a male YouTuber who’s popular for songs that capture women’s hearts.
“Senpai Sniper” is a track released in 2019, and it also drew attention because Takayan wore a girls’ school uniform.
The song candidly portrays a woman’s devoted feelings for a popular upperclassman, her aggressive side, and her possessiveness in wanting him all to herself.
It’s far from a typical love song, yet it strangely resonates—like, “yeah, that’s exactly how being in love feels.”
