Sūdara-bushiUeki Hitoshi
The Sudara-bushi playfully portrays everyday mishaps like drinking too much, gambling losses, and heartbreak.
With its catchy phrases, the song was released as a single in August 1961 and remained high on the charts into the following year.
It has been used in films and commercials and is widely known.
Its humorous singing style makes it easy to try, even for those who aren’t confident singers.
They were youngOzaki Kiyohiko
I once had a student in their sixties who sang nothing but Kiyohiko Ozaki songs! If you don’t sing regularly, it might be hard to get your voice out, but “Futari wa Wakakatta” doesn’t go very high, so I think you can sing it in a relaxed way.
The melody is simple, so it’s also a good one to learn anew.
The beginning sits quite low, so make sure to resonate your voice so it doesn’t get muffled.
Try raising your hands to head level and slowly project your voice toward them.
Your facial muscles will naturally lift, and you should feel the resonance in your head, making it easier to hear your own voice.
When the chorus comes, it’s good to consciously sing out more firmly!
Always keep your dreamsHashi Yukio, Yoshinaga Sayuri
This song, a duet by Yukio Hashi and Sayuri Yoshinaga in 1962, is a classic of youth pop that won the 4th Japan Record Award and sold a total of about 2.6 million copies.
With lyrics by Takao Saeki and music by Tadashi Yoshida—their golden partnership—the words, likened to stars and rain, gently weave a message urging listeners to keep dreaming no matter their circumstances.
The piece was adapted into a film by Nikkatsu in 1963 and was also chosen as the entrance march for high school baseball.
It’s a song I’d love for everyone to hum together on a cold winter’s day in a warm room.
Why not spend some time sharing memories of your hopeful younger days, carried along by its tender melody?
SubaruTanimura Shinji
How about a moving ballad that evokes the vastness of the universe? Released in 1980, it is one of Shinji Tanimura’s signature songs, featured multiple times in high school music textbooks since 1985 and performed five times on NHK’s Kōhaku Uta Gassen.
Its poetic lyrics, likening life to a journey, possess a literary depth and convey a strong determination to keep moving forward while overcoming hardships.
Many older listeners may see their own lives reflected in the figure who continues walking with hope in their heart.
Why not join your voices together and sing it, savoring the poetry as you go?

This masterpiece, featuring a powerful and emotionally rich vocal performance, was released as a single in November 1977.
Showcasing Alice’s full appeal, the song masterfully fuses folk and rock.
While painting a refreshing winter scene, it warmly sings of the subtle emotions everyone experiences.
A classic that reached No.
2 on the Oricon charts, it was also used as an insert song in TV dramas and films, and is known as one of Alice’s signature works.
Its enduring charm remains undimmed, evoking memories of time spent with loved ones and nostalgic landscapes.
