Trendy dance tracks that make you want to move & popular songs gaining buzz on TikTok

That’s right!!Takenoko shōnen

That's right!! / Bamboo Shoot Boy feat. Hatsune Miku

This is a song by Vocaloid producer Takenoko Shonen, selected for “Let’s Create Together! The 4th Music Contest: Project Sekai NEXT.” The title, “Soudatta!!” (“That’s Right!!”), suggests some deeper meaning.

Yet the lyrics keep moving forward with lines like “What was it I was going to write down?” and “Time passed while I was hesitating, but I still haven’t said any of the important things,” prompting a flood of comments from people saying, “I’ve been in that situation!” A choreography video that mimics the motion of remembering—going “That’s right!!”—also went viral on social media.

ATARIWataru Imazu

ATARI – Ayumu Imazu 【Music Video】

Wataru Imazu has been garnering attention for lyrics and melodies that resonate strongly with younger generations.

The track released in July 2023 conveys a determination to confront the absurdities of life.

By invoking an “amidakuji” (a lottery-style game), it expresses the feeling of staking everything on fate.

You can feel the strong will to pull off a last-minute turnaround and the desire for major success.

With a contemporary sound that fuses pop and R&B, it has also been featured as a theme song for TV anime and dramas.

It’s a moving piece that encourages those trying to overcome setbacks and hardships—perfect for anyone who needs the courage to face everyday life.

Why not give it a listen?

cocoa feat. kojikojiSorane

Sora-nee / cocoa feat. kojikoji (“Fantasy club” Release Tour -2020-)

Soraone is a male rapper born in 2001.

His debut album, “Fantasy club,” released in 2019, topped Apple Music’s Hip-Hop/Rap chart, and the track “Hug” has surpassed 8 million video views—he’s a rising young rapper to watch! The song “cocoa” features kojikoji, just like “Hug.” There’s no official choreography for this track either, so try enjoying it with your own original moves.

It has a slow tempo, so it might be fun to simply sway your body to the beat.

Aomori Nightingale – Heyyy, everyone, is it okay? (Live Version) [Official Lyric Video]

♪ Um, everyone, do you have a moment? – Aomori Nightingale

Aomori Nightingale’s slightly quirky song “Uh, excuse me, everyone?”—despite the group being inactive—has gone mega-viral on TikTok.

Many idol fans are probably wondering, “Why now?” The lyrics, where they call someone over and introduce themselves, have a certain charm.

The flow is: you spread your arms like you’re going in for a hug to call the other person over, then strike a pose by twirling your arms.

I think the appeal is that it’s a simple signature move anyone can copy—kids and people with no dance experience included.

Former members of Aomori Nightingale were also dancing to it on TikTok and looked like they were having fun.

Definitely check it out!

HIPMAMAMOO

[Special] ‘HIP’ 사복 안무 영상 떼창 ver.

The work that sparked MAMAMOO’s rise in popularity is “HIP.” It’s a hip-hop song that portrays a strong image of women, featuring powerful rapping over an intense beat.

The biggest highlight of this track is its catchy choreography.

There’s a section in the lyrics where different body parts are listed in order, and the dance has you touch each corresponding part as it’s mentioned.

It not only looks cool, but it also makes it easier to learn the choreography in sync with the lyrics, which is a nice bonus.
