Age Age Every KnightDJ OZMA
This is a song that shines at drinking parties.
The rap in the A-melody gets everyone hyped, the chorus makes you want to drink to the rhythm, and overall it takes the vibe up another notch.
Even if you can’t sing it, it would be fun to put together a DJ set and do an air-band performance.
Paradise Has No BorderToukyou Sukapara Daisu Ookesutora
This song, familiar from the Hyoketsu commercials, became a hot topic when Sakana-kun and Ken Shimura tried their hand at instruments.
Listening to it makes you want to drink an ice-cold alcoholic beverage.
I think it would also work well as background music for a toast.
While proper instruments are great, why not try the well-known phrases on a melodica or recorder?
