Three Men in Traveling Attiredikku mine
Dick Mine’s “Tabisugata Sannin Otoko” is a classic Showa-era song that depicts Japan’s beautiful scenery and the passion of men.
It extols the grandeur of Mount Fuji and the beauty of clear streams, and its lyrics celebrating masculine pride and courage resonate deeply.
Released in 1938, the song became a signature work in the career of Dick Mine, who was a top moneymaking star for Teichiku Records.
It’s a perfect choice to sing when enjoying karaoke with seniors or sharing nostalgic memories.
It’s your birthday, huh.Tōtasu Matsumoto
Tortoise Matsumoto’s “Tanjoubi Yane” gives you power with lyrics that resonate with the soul.
Released in 2011, this is a song I hope parents will sing to celebrate a new chapter for their beloved child.
The sound is fun and simple, and the message that overflows from the lyrics—“Thank you for being born” and “It’s normal for life to have ups and downs, so live joyfully”—is gentle yet empowering, giving strength for the first step of a child setting out on their journey.
Treasure ~Until This Voice Fades Away~Naoto Intiraymi
Singer-songwriter Naoto Inti Raymi hails from Kameyama City in Mie Prefecture.
True to the meaning of his name Inti Raymi—“Festival of the Sun”—his distinctive singing voice warmly embraces listeners.
He made his major debut in 2001 under the name Naoto with the release of “Growing up !!.” After traveling the world, he debuted a second time in 2005 under the name NAOTO INTI RAYMI, and then made a third debut in 2010 under the name Naoto Inti Raymi with the single “Carnival↑?” He is also highly skilled at soccer, having played for the Kashiwa Reysol junior youth team, and has participated in futsal tournaments and appeared frequently on soccer-related TV programs.
Song of Treasuresnana-iro
Nana-iro made their major debut in 2006 with the single “Takaramonono Uta.” The group was formed when Ai Utsumi from Aichi Prefecture and Michiko Iwahori from Fukui Prefecture met in a club at the University of Fukui, where they both enrolled.
Their 2007 single “Blanket” was featured as an insert song in the Kansai TV drama “Oniyome Nikki: Ii Yu Dana,” and in 2013 they released their second album “ten” to commemorate the 10th anniversary of their formation.
Solar System Disco (ft. Hatsune Miku)Nayutan Seijin
Nayutan Seijin, who works as a “Vocaloid producer from outer space.” Have you checked out his album, Object Y from Planet Nayutan? The album features tracks related to space, and the one I especially want to highlight is Solar System Disco.
It’s a song that likens the entire solar system to a disco, complete with powerful male chorus parts, giving it a festive vibe.
Give it a listen if you want a track that really gets you hyped while letting you feel the cosmos.
However, background musicNigami 17-sai
Nigami 17sai is a band formed around Yusuke Iwashita, formerly of Uso Tsuki Barbie (Liar Barbie).
They operate under a meticulously crafted concept: expressing a fictional 17-year-old named “Nigami-chan” through the band.
True to their self-professed motto of delivering “stylish yet perverse” music, their appeal becomes apparent the moment you listen.
Some may find them hard to approach at first, but the more you listen, the more addictive they become.
They’re likely to be a critical hit with listeners who want music that offers a different kind of allure from bands trending in the mainstream.
