The star-studded collaborative project “Za Lonely Hearts Oyaji Band” has been a hot topic.

This song was released to commemorate Yuzo Kayama’s 50th anniversary since his debut, in collaboration with The Yanchers—a unit made up of Shinji Tanimura, Kosetsu Minami, Masashi Sada, THE ALFEE, and Ryoko Moriyama.

In the song, they sing about passion and bonds that remain unchanged even as the times change.

It will resonate not only with people of their generation but with others as well.

The folk-song vibe is great, too.

Takuro Yoshida – Which platform is the train to Osaka?

A medium-tempo tune whose lyrics, depicting the transience of life and love, gently sink in.

It’s included on the classic 1984 album FOREVER YOUNG.

While the song has a sentimental yet bright atmosphere that wraps around you, and it may seem very easy to sing, in reality its wide vocal range and sharp rises and falls in pitch make it quite challenging.

Even so, the confessional style of singing feels approachable, and with a bit of teamwork among fellow fans or friends, it can become easier and more fun to perform.

It’s a song that can strengthen bonds and inspire the feeling of taking a fresh step forward!

It was spring, wasn’t it?yoshida takurou

An uptempo track that sets the tone for the fourth album “Genki Desu,” released in 1972.

Takuro’s cool vocals breezily sing of the fleeting nature of love.

With an extremely low range—its lowest note is mid1 A#—this song is a godsend for men with lower voices.

While the dense lyrics and quick delivery can be a bit challenging, its comfortable, soothing sense of drive makes it easy to sing! Perfect for spring karaoke or when you want to get hyped with one of Takuro’s rock numbers.

Gatchaman SongShimon Masato

A classic song representing Showa-era anime hero series, it has captivated many with its exhilarating, fast-paced melody and grand lyrics.

The song leaves a strong impression with its sense of duty to protect the peace of the Earth and its portrayal of fighting with courage and passion.

Masato Shimon’s powerful vocals further elevate the work’s epic worldview.

Released as a single in October 1972, it was first used as the ending theme for the TV anime.

From episode 23, it was changed to the opening theme, becoming the series’ iconic track.

It has been included in numerous compilation albums and is hailed as a milestone in the world of anime songs.

With its powerful vocals and up-tempo melody, it’s perfect for bringing everyone together at parties and gatherings.

Sync Of SummerYamashita Tatsuro

This is Tatsuro Yamashita’s 53rd single, released in July 2023.

It was reportedly written specifically as a song for Kirin’s “Gogo no Kocha” (Afternoon Tea) commercial.

When you think of summer, you think of Tatsuro Yamashita!! That image, combined with the song’s title, makes this a summer anthem overflowing with his signature style that truly evokes the season.

The melody crafted with that trademark Yamashita touch doesn’t span a particularly wide vocal range, so it should be very easy to sing even for people who don’t usually sing much.

Throughout the song, it feels best not to overemote—sing it a bit bluntly, with a touch of nonchalance.

Sexual Violet No. 1Kuwana Masahiro

It captivates with a rock sound emblematic of the 1970s and a sultry male vocal.

Depicting a passionate relationship between a man and a woman that exudes a bewitching sensuality, the piece is adorned with Takashi Matsumoto’s sophisticated lyrics and Kyohei Tsutsumi’s masterful melodic lines.

Released in 1979 as a campaign song for Kanebo Cosmetics, it topped the Oricon chart for three consecutive weeks.

Also included on the album “Communication,” it continues to enchant countless listeners.

Masahiro Kuwana’s wild, husky voice and mature allure vividly convey a world steeped in the melancholy of love.

It’s a perfect track for parties or karaoke—ride the catchy rhythm and sing along, and everyone is sure to feel their spirits lift.

A Good Day to Set Out on a JourneyTanimura Shinji

This is Shinji Tanimura’s 41st single, released in March 2008; he sadly passed away recently (October 2023).

It is a self-cover single of a song he originally provided to Momoe Yamaguchi in 1978.

As of November 2023, many people in their 50s and older will likely remember Yamaguchi’s original version.

It’s a very mellow piece that evokes the feeling of a distant journey under open skies.

The vocal line is easy for anyone to hum along with and enjoy, so I highly recommend selecting it for karaoke even if you’re not confident in your singing.
