Experienced with a variety of instruments: marching band in elementary school, clarinet in junior high school wind ensemble, and drums in a band from high school onward. Drawing on my own musical activities and the experience gained through my work, I produce daily articles, including various song introductions, features on music festivals around the country, and live reports. In music, I enjoy not only rock from Japan and abroad but, lately, a wide range of J-pop as well.

Koji Tamaki, who rose to fame as the vocalist of the rock band Anzen Chitai and is also a popular solo singer-songwriter.

With his overwhelming vocal ability and expressive power, he’s a renowned singer who has moved music fans all across Japan.

He has so many truly wonderful songs, and I’m sure many fans want to sing his tracks at karaoke—but a lot of them are quite difficult…

So in this article, we’ll introduce some of Koji Tamaki’s more singable songs.

By “singable,” we mean melodies that are easier to follow—it doesn’t mean they’re easy.

We hope this helps you choose songs for karaoke, and if you’re confident in your singing, give them a try!

Anzen Chitai - Wine Red no Kokoro (Wine-Red Heart)

Wine Red Heartanzenchitai

With lyrics by Yosui Inoue and music by Koji Tamaki, this is one of Anzenchitai’s signature songs.

Many people born in the early Heisei era or the Showa era have probably sung it.

Since it’s sung in a generally calm tone and range, it’s easy to sing at karaoke.

There are a few spots where the melody rises.

Belting those parts can sound cool, and singing in a composed tone like Tamaki does also gives it a tasteful charm.

From the high point of the chorus to where the melody drops slightly, the pitch can be tricky, so it may help to focus on the lower notes and sing them carefully.

It’s a recommended song when you want to deliver a gentle, heartfelt performance.

In conclusion

I introduced some Koji Tamaki songs that are easier to sing.

Many of Tamaki’s songs are challenging in terms of expressiveness, so there weren’t many I could readily recommend.

The songs featured in this article aren’t necessarily easy either; I presented them as easier to sing because their melodies are easier to follow.

I hope this article helps you enjoy singing them at karaoke.
