Refreshing and invigoratingSukotto Erikuson, Gōdon Guddouin
Disney Natsu Matsuri, held at Tokyo Disneyland from 2012 to 2018, was a unique event designed to evoke the atmosphere of a traditional Japanese summer festival.
Among its highlights, Sou Ryo Kabu, performed on the stage in front of Cinderella Castle, featured a dance with a distinctly Japanese flair that blended the charm of classic Japanese festivals with Disney magic.
A simplified version of the choreography uses many linear movements, making it easy to learn; when everyone dances in unison, it creates a powerful, impactful stage.
That’s right!!Takenoko Shounen feat. Hatsune Miku
“That’s Right!!” is known as one of the winning entries in the 4th Song Contest, Project SEKAI NEXT.
This piece was created by Vocaloid producer Takenoko Shounen using Hatsune Miku.
The lyrics express Hatsune Miku’s feelings when she suddenly forgets something important in a brief moment.
Its charm also lies in the inclusion of a few humorous elements.
Another fun aspect is how the sound shifts rapidly—at times taking on an Arabian vibe, and at other times a rock-like feel, depending on the section.
Graduation — Farewells Are for TomorrowTakkī & Tsubasa
The song expresses the sorrow of two people who once walked together becoming separated, and yet still thinking of each other.
Graduating and parting from the friends with whom you have studied and journeyed until now is sad, but it doesn’t change the fact that you are still comrades and friends.
Even when you are apart, someone important remains precious, and thinking of that person gives you the strength to keep going—such is the message of this track.
It was also used as an insert song in episode 124 of the TV anime Inuyasha, “Farewell, My Beloved Kikyo.”
And then I get hungry again.dainamikku jien zu
If you’re looking for a high-energy track, start with this one! It’s a song by Dynamic Jienz, a twin-vocal Vocaloid project by Carlos Hakamada, released in 2021.
Its speed, drive, and soaring high notes are truly one of a kind! It’s an uplifting tune that can pep you up anytime.
Many of Dynamic Jienz’s works have a similar vibe, so if you want to sing something energetic, definitely check them out.
Just be careful not to strain your voice!
GraduationDa Kāpo
When it comes to Da Capo, they’ve had various hit songs, but the first one that comes to mind is, of course, “Is It True You’re Getting Married?” However, the song I’m introducing here is Da Capo’s “Sotsugyo” (“Graduation”).
In addition to its single release, it was also included on the 1977 album Intimate: Da Capo Sings at the Grand Theater.
With lyrics that feel a bit different from a school graduation—more like a “graduation from love”—the song portrays a farewell scene with a refreshing touch, evoking the crispness of spring.
Some listeners may be moved by its friendly melody and the gentle vocals of the two members of Da Capo.
By the way, “da capo” is a musical term meaning “back to the beginning of the piece.”

Song for U.S.A.Chekkāzu
This song expresses a longing for the dazzling towns of America, sung with a grand, expansive mood.
Released as a single in 1986, it was also used as the theme song for the film “The Checkers SONG FOR U.S.A.,” starring members of The Checkers.
Words evoking America are sung over a gentle sound, conjuring an image of that yearning quietly growing.
The overall calm rhythm makes it easy to sing, and the melodic lines are relaxed, making it a track that can be performed comfortably.
SotodenaiCharan Po Rantan
Sotodenai is perfect for a Saturday spent holed up at home.
It’s a song by Charan-Po-Rantan, a sister duo known for their distinctive musical style that blends elements like folk and circus.
It was released in 2016 as a digital-only single.
Some of you might be thinking, “Huh? I feel like I’ve heard this melody somewhere…” And you’d be right.
It’s actually a parody of the famous song Saturday Night by the British band Bay City Rollers.
The wordplay between “Saturday Night” and “Sotodenai” adds a touch of comedic fun.
You want to go out, but, honestly, it’s such a hassle.
This surreal, funky track perfectly speaks for that feeling.
