Recommended BGM for YouTube Shorts! Popular songs released in the Reiwa era

YouTube has now gained acceptance across a wide range of age groups.

It’s become a tool that not only younger generations but also children and seniors use as a matter of course.

One of its features, YouTube Shorts, has gained popularity as a service where you can post short videos up to 60 seconds long.

It’s great that posting can be completed entirely on a smartphone, and viewers can enjoy watching casually since the videos themselves are short.

This time, we’ve compiled a list of popular songs used on YouTube Shorts, focusing on tracks released in the Reiwa era.

Feel free to use it as a reference!
