Heavenly Musicyūyū P

Rock music by Yuuyu-P, famous for “Deep Sea Girl.” It’s a great song for male singers who can hit high notes—definitely give it a try.
Wagakki Band has also covered it, so sing whichever version is easier for you.
Since many people say it doesn’t sound very Vocaloid-like, it’s perfect for singing with people you’re meeting for the first time.
Techno Washing Machine and the Kagamine Householdyukatefu

The techno music themed around “the sounds a washing machine makes” pairs perfectly with Kagamine Rin’s vocals.
Released in November 2024, this song is quintessential Yukatefu: a novelty track built on everyday “relatable moments.” It vividly and humorously portrays the lively dynamics of the Kagamine household.
The rhythm is so catchy that your body starts swaying on its own.
Don’t ask yourself “How did we get here?”—just surrender your body and soul to the fun music.

Heavenyuzu

Included on the 2017 EP “Utaou.” A folk duo from Kanagawa Prefecture formed in 1996.
This track was recorded as a one-take live performance with vocals and acoustic guitar.
The tender acoustic guitar tones and well-balanced harmonies seep gently into the heart, creating a beautifully finished piece.
Heaven and Hellrereriri

It’s one of the songs from the cross-media “Kotonoha Project.” Created by the popular Vocaloid producer rerulili—known for continually releasing hits like “Nou Shou Sakuretsu Girl”—it was released in 2017.
It’s an upbeat four-on-the-floor track, and the funky, technically intricate bassline is just irresistibly cool.
The lyrics carry a passionate message: there’s no such thing as perfection in this world, and that’s exactly what makes it interesting—words that really set your heart on fire.
If you focus on delivering the vocals crisply, you might be able to better capture the song’s vibe.
Genius BakabonAidoru Fō

This is the theme song of the anime The Genius Bakabon, which gained popularity in the 1970s.
Sung by The Idol Four, it’s characterized by its catchy melody and humor-filled lyrics.
It portrays everyday, ordinary events through a uniquely quirky worldview.
The single released in October 1971 also included Bakabon’s Papa.
Loved by many alongside the anime itself, it has remained popular across generations.
Celebrating free thinking unconstrained by common sense and delightfully unconventional ideas, this song is perfect when you want to relax and take a little mental break.
Why not hum along and enjoy it with a touch of nostalgia?
Astro Boyatomuzu

This is the opening theme of the 1980 version of the TV anime Astro Boy (Tetsuwan Atom).
It’s sung by the group Atoms.
The original Astro Boy theme song had strong choral elements, but this version features an arrangement by Nariaki Saegusa with a prominent rhythm section, giving it a strong 1980s pop influence.
From the Ceiling Void, With LoveAnjī

Angie is a rock band with a cool, straight-ahead ’80s rock sound.
They made their major debut with “From the Attic With Love,” and many people probably still remember the scene where the audience held up bananas during this song (lol).
That kind of humor is part of their charm, along with their exhilarating, feel-good rock sound and melodies so catchy and familiar you can’t help but sing along.
If you were a fan listening back then, you can probably still sing them today, right?
