Feeling in lovemihimaru GT

mihimaru GT is a musical duo known for many upbeat, pop-style tracks that raise your energy.

While they’re often associated with high tones and fast tempos, “Koisuru Kimochi” is different.

This song features an unusually gentle vocal line for mihimaru GT and is arranged to be easy to sing throughout.

Although it includes plenty of long notes, the overall range is narrow, making it a piece you can comfortably tackle even when your stamina is running low.

STARSNakajima Mika

Mika Nakashima is a female singer who has left many masterpieces with her distinctive vocal technique and catchy J-pop.

Because she’s an artist with many high-pitched phrases, you might be inclined to avoid her songs if you’re aiming for a high score.

Even so, there are surely people who still want to go for a high score with her tracks.

In that case, we recommend STARS.

It’s a mature-sounding ballad with a very high frequency of long tones, but the vocal range is relatively narrow, and the pitch movement isn’t overly dramatic.

If you can hold steady long notes without wavering, you should be able to sing it without issue.

You can also take advantage of the abundance of long tones to rack up extra points with vibrato.

Songs Women in Their 30s Will Want to Sing: 1990s–2000s (31–40)

Kaela Kimura is a female singer-songwriter who remains popular today.

She has many great songs, but the one I especially recommend for aiming at a high score is “happiness!!!.” It’s known as a classic from her early career.

While it contains quite a few slightly high phrases, there are almost no long sustained notes, so if you sing it in an appropriate key, you shouldn’t have trouble with the high range.

There are some English lyrics sprinkled in, but the vocal line itself is simple, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

Ko Shibasaki has been highly active not only as an actress but also as an artist.

Many women in their 30s may have admired her as an icon.

Among her songs, one I especially recommend for aiming at a high score is Hito Koi Meguri.

While it has a distinctive melody, the pitch doesn’t fluctuate drastically, making it surprisingly smooth and easy to sing.

The vocal range isn’t particularly wide either, so it doesn’t depend heavily on the singer’s voice type—another factor that makes it a strong choice for high scores.

Ayumi Hamasaki / STEP you (Short Ver.)
STEP youHamasaki Ayumi

Ayumi Hamasaki’s classic “STEP you” carries an atmosphere reminiscent of gothic rock.

The world it creates—born from sharp synths and melodies with a dark pop or gothic rock vibe—is truly stunning.

Interestingly, despite the character of the melody, the vocal line is relatively straightforward.

The A section sits a bit low, but the chorus doesn’t push the voltage much either, so the overall range is narrow and there are well-placed rests.

Definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

Released by Hitomi Shimatani in May 2002, this song is a celebrated piece that portrays a refreshing romance.

It expresses a young girl’s feelings of love through dreamlike imagery, beautifully harmonizing with scenes of landscape and nature.

The lyrics, imbued with youth and purity, are complemented by her clear, translucent vocals, capturing the brilliance of innocent love in full.

Featured in a commercial for Kao Essential Damage Care Shampoo, it became a major hit, peaking at No.

4 on the Oricon Weekly Chart.

With its broad, expansive melody and an elegant tone that sways like hair in the wind, it carries a familiar charm that invites everyone to hum along.

I’m ProudKahara Tomomi

A masterpiece of self-affirmation from 1996 and one of Tomomi Kahala’s signature songs, featuring a powerful yet wistful melody and emotionally rich lyrics.

It vividly portrays a protagonist grappling with loneliness and anxiety who confronts herself and reexamines her identity through encounters with others.

Chosen as the song for a TBC commercial, it also led to an appearance at that year’s NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen.

This legendary track reached No.

2 on the Oricon weekly chart and topped the annual karaoke rankings.

Though it’s a song that tests one’s vocal ability, it’s highly recommended for moments when you want to boost your confidence or take a new step forward.
