Sun of Lovekururi
A single by Quruli released in March 2023.
It was pre-released in February and was also chosen as the theme song for the Netflix film “Call Me Chihiro.” It’s a simple, medium-tempo pop-rock song that’s very easy to groove to.
The vocal melody line is also very straightforward and easy to hum, so it should be relatively manageable for anyone to shoot for a perfect 100 at karaoke.
Listen closely to the original, study where to sustain notes, where to cut them off, and how to do so, and give that perfect score a try.
KanadeSukima Suichi
A classic by Sukima Switch that continues to move countless hearts with its touching melody and deeply resonant lyrics.
Centered on themes of parting, reunion, and unchanging bonds, the words truly strike a chord with listeners.
Released in March 2004 and included on the album “Natsu Kumo Noise,” it was also used as an insert song for the film “Rough” and as the theme song for the drama “Sotsu Uta,” earning love from a wide audience.
Popular at karaoke, it’s a song that accompanies life’s milestones, such as graduation or moving away.
This work is recommended for those who, after experiencing a farewell with someone precious, are trying to look forward while carrying those memories in their hearts.
HAPPYSaitō Kazuyoshi
Kazuyoshi Saito is a renowned singer-songwriter with a career spanning over 30 years, admired by many fellow musicians for his unique, uncompromising stance that resists trends.
A devoted Loudness fan and former metalhead in his youth, Saito possesses a broad musical range that defies categorization, excelling in rock, pop, and ballads alike.
His subtly awkward, deeply expressive vocals and lyrics are also irresistibly appealing.
Released in April 2025, Saito’s “HAPPY” is an anthemic track propelled by rough-edged guitar sounds, written as the theme song for the TV program “Saturday LIVE News Zigzag.” It’s a song you’ll definitely want to try at karaoke: its wistfully moving melody is sure to resonate across generations.
The rapid-fire vocal line that appears in the chorus takes a bit of practice, but once you get used to it, it isn’t difficult—so sing it repeatedly until you can deliver it smoothly!
When the cherry blossoms bloomFujimaki Ryota
Ryota Fujimaki, known as the vocalist of Remioromen, is now also actively working as a solo artist and has produced several notable songs.
Among his tracks, the one I especially recommend is Sakura no Hana ga Saku Koro (When the Cherry Blossoms Bloom).
Perhaps because his musical style hasn’t changed, this piece has a classic J-pop finish.
The vocal range is about average, and since there are no sudden pitch jumps or advanced techniques required, it’s definitely a song where it’s easy to aim for a perfect score.

A gem of a ballad inspired by the film’s protagonist, who keeps writing love letters to his wife.
Hata Motohiro’s warm, gentle vocals beautifully express the unwavering love of a long-married couple.
Our feelings for a lifelong partner deepen day by day, and their presence brings new colors to life.
This moving work spins an inexhaustible form of love into a beautiful melody.
Written as the theme song for the film “Love Letter: Year 35,” released in February 2025, it was issued as a CD single in March of the same year.
Reflecting the film’s worldview in vivid detail, the song will surely offer a lovely time—both as a prompt to face someone dear to you and as a heartwarming companion to your moviegoing experience.
the red threadKobukuro
This is a long ballad that carefully depicts the feelings of a young person entering a rough patch with their partner, unfolding over seven minutes.

It’s a song you’ll want to sing with all your heart at solo karaoke or in the company of close friends.

Known as a masterpiece that likens the pain of heartbreak to a tsunami, this work is a moving love song celebrated as one of Southern All Stars’ signature pieces.
It’s a gem of a ballad that expresses the sorrow of losing someone dear through a grand melody, fully showcasing Keisuke Kuwata’s exceptional songwriting and composing talent.
