Tokyo Incidents – Makunouchi Sadistic
Marunouchi SadisticShiina Ringo

A super famous song by Ringo Sheena.

It’s very easy to play as a band, with a simple yet stylish chord progression, and you can easily trade solos.

There are lots of possible arrangements, so if you’re good at jazz or funk, nailing a solo on this tune will really get the crowd going.

One Night CarnivalKishidan

When it comes to guaranteed crowd-pleasers for band performances, isn’t Kishidan’s “One Night Carnival” the go-to? Their long school coats and slick pompadours—the mischievous look they’re known for—are iconic, and leaning into that vibe really amps up the excitement.

You can go all-in with cosplay, and adding choreography makes it even better.

Try this song to create an unforgettable night!

TRUTHT-SQUARE

A classic that every car enthusiast has heard at least once! It’s a signature track of the fusion band T-SQUARE and is also known as the F1 theme.

However, it’s not easy to pull off as a band—it requires considerable technique.

If you played in a band during your student days, you can definitely take on the challenge, so practice a lot, bring it to the stage, and get the crowd fired up!

A Little Love SongMONGOL800

Among MONGOL800’s songs, this is the most famous—people who don’t even know MONGOL800 have probably heard it.

With its straightforward lyrics and brisk tempo, it’s an easy track to get into! As a performer, since the original tempo is fast, it’s important to play it a bit slower—without going too slow—while keeping a groove you can ride.

Wax MuseumSeikima II

Seikima-II - The House of Wax Dolls
Wax MuseumSeikima II

This is a song that has probably turned countless people into wax figures by now.

With its heavy band sound, makeup, and MC, it will undoubtedly become a rousing Mass (meaning a live show).

It might require so much practice that it feels like overwork for a side act, but let’s give it our best.

STAY GOLDHi-STANDARD

If you’re into bands, everyone loves Hi-Standard, no questions asked! Among their songs, the classic “STAY GOLD,” which 10-FEET recently covered, is especially famous.

This track cranks your energy up unconditionally! I think it’s a song that both people in their 30s who grew up with Hi-Standard and the younger generation can all get hyped to.

When it comes to band performances, you want to show off something cool, right? In that case, how about a song by Official HIGE DANDism? It might be quite a challenge that won’t go well without thorough practice.

From harmonies to technical guitar phrases, if everything locks in, it becomes an incredibly cool mid-tempo ballad number.
