It was spring, wasn’t it?yoshida takurou
This is Takuro Yoshida’s “It Was Spring,” captivating for its unique vocal delivery within a pop atmosphere.
The lyrics were written by Yoshiko Taguchi, who provided words for numerous artists, and Yoshida doesn’t fit those lyrics neatly to the melody—yet he sings them wonderfully, as if dancing.
It’s a masterpiece that makes you think no one else could pull off such a technique.
At the time, people even whispered that he was like the legendary American musician Bob Dylan.
Subtly flashy (bling-bling, but nonchalant)Kondō Masahiko
A savior for people who aren’t good at singing: that would be Matchy’s early numbers.
Their vocal range is extremely narrow and the melodies are simple, yet they’re flashy enough to work as proper pop songs, so they don’t bore listeners.
If you’re tone-deaf, you should sing Matchy’s early songs.
His later work is harder because his singing improved and his range expanded, but Kondo Masahiko’s songs in general are great for karaoke.
Tokyoyashiki takajin
“Tokyo,” a famous song by Takajin Yashiki released in 1993.
Although he is a local singer, this track is widely known nationwide, partly because it received a Special Award at the Japan Cable Radio Awards.
The song portrays a breakup between a man and a woman, with the theme of moving to Tokyo.
As for the vocal line, the melody is arranged in an enka-like style, making it very easy to sing for people in their 60s.
If you’re not confident in your vocal power, try singing the A and B sections softly and then use a normal volume for the chorus; the dynamics will make it sound better, so give it a try.

A quintessential Carol song that wraps a straightforward love story in breezy rock ’n’ roll, remaining as vibrant as ever.
It portrays the protagonist’s pure feelings as he becomes captivated by his lover’s playful gestures, carried by a melodious sound.
Released in June 1973, it achieved an exceptional 300,000 sales for a rock band at the time.

Fukinotou, a folk duo, has a song perfect for the kind of winter that leaves you feeling vaguely lonely: “Shiroi Fuyu” (White Winter).
Released in 1974, it was their debut single.
The lyrics portray a cold winter spent alone while thinking of someone you once loved, and they carry a poignant sense of longing.
The melody, which evokes a chilly wind and a snowy, white landscape, amplifies the bittersweetness of the words.
Although the lyrics convey solitude, since it’s sung by a duo, it can be nice to sing it with a friend from the same generation, reminiscing together about past loves.
