Empty Melodyumikun
Umi-kun, a Vocaloid producer who is also active as a singer-songwriter.
The title track of his 2021 release, Empty Melody, is a ballad resonating with poignant feelings centered on the theme of “life.” It’s crafted as an electro-pop piece with a grand atmosphere.
KAF’s clear, transparent vocals convey a cry from the heart.
The synth sounds, which envelop sentimental emotions, are soothing.
Please give this song—one that sings of the loneliness everyone feels—a listen.
Soumuenu
Released in December 2020, N’s song is a moving ballad that captures the heartbreak of a long-distance relationship.
With its simple acoustic guitar and clear, pure vocals, the track leaves a strong impression.
It delicately portrays everything from those tender moments when everyday life with a loved one feels precious to the sorrow of parting.
It went viral on social media and resonated with many listeners, reaching as high as No.
2 on Spotify’s Japan Viral Top 50.
It’s the perfect song for lonely nights spent thinking of a faraway lover—one that might help you face the yearning deep inside to see them again.
That’s a big no-no☆eroaki P
Speaking of cute songs, you can’t leave out Eroaki-P! This track is all about love for the Master.
It’s a love-filled song, but the rather harsh words here and there might make your heart waver a bit (lol).
Still, as the saying goes, “Playing hard to get is part of liking someone,” and in this song the singer states it outright, so the love is definitely there.
With its sparkling sound and lyrics that tease while saying “I love you,” any Master would surely feel their heart skip a beat.
Sky-Colored Raceo hoi pi
This is a track I really want you to listen to with headphones or earphones.
It’s a piece by Ossan Hoihoi P—also known as Okkhoi P—released in 2013.
It sings of the excitement that wells up on a sunny day with clear blue skies, along with the sweet, slightly bittersweet feelings of love.
The sound arrangement is fun to listen to, with a variety of tones appearing throughout.
The soft, plucky percussion sounds are satisfying too.
You might even find yourself thinking, “Wow, I was really tense without realizing it.” I recommend listening to it while taking a aimless stroll.
Just like that, just like that—stay just like that forever.kikuo
It’s a song with an eerie atmosphere and profound meaning.
It fully showcases Kikuo’s unique worldview and was released in August 2023.
It expresses the desire to escape the pressures of everyday life, clearly conveying the protagonist’s longing for rest.
I think those who feel tired or suffocated by daily life will relate.
Somehow like a nursery rhyme, yet somehow mad—be sure to add this track to your playlist.
The Tale of a World Being Dyedgibson
This is a driving rock number with grand, string-laden tones.
It’s a track by Vocaloid producer Gibson—renowned both as a skilled guitarist and for providing songs to other artists—and it’s included on the compilation album “Learning Junior High School Science with Vocaloid.” The song covers topics like the continuity of life and genes.
The lyrics project a bittersweet worldview that really hits you.
Honestly, it’s wonderful not just as a study song, but as a standalone piece of music.
That line is the horizon.kururi
This track is included on Quruli’s 12th studio album, Songline, which was released in September 2018.
It has a medium-to-slow tempo with a slightly languid vibe, and I feel that’s the song’s greatest appeal.
Even when you listen closely to the vocal melody, there aren’t any particularly complex lines or ranges that would make it hard to sing, so it’s very singable.
That also means it’s likely easier to aim for a high score if you select it in karaoke with a scoring feature.
The only concern when trying to score high would be letting the rhythm rush because you can’t resist the original track’s “languid atmosphere.” If you do that, you’ll spoil the very mood the original song has.
Keep that in mind and give it a try.
