A smile exists for youMizuki Nana
This is a performance of Nana Mizuki’s “Egao wa Kimi no Tame ni Aru” in sign language.
There was a group version and a solo version, but this time we chose the group version.
It might be interesting to compare it with the solo version.

Kissing You of ApologyE-girls
Among E-girls’ songs, this one is poppy, cute, and a bit up-tempo—and you can dance it in sign language too.
That said, because it’s a bit fast, keeping up with the full song length seems fairly challenging.
Even so, it’s a fun number, so give it a try!
KanadeSukima Suichi
An insert song from the movie “Rough.” It’s a farewell song sung at a relaxed tempo, a ballad whose poignant lyrics might bring a tear to your eye.
It’s perfect for send-offs and farewell scenes, such as for students, so it could be a nice choice to include as entertainment.
In conclusion
I introduced some Japanese sign language songs. Did you find a favorite? Learning sign language can be challenging, but when you pair it with music, it becomes twice as fun and much easier to remember, so I highly recommend it. I’d be happy if this helps more people take an interest in sign language.
