Chorus: Carrying YouSuginami Jidō Gasshōdan
When it comes to Castle in the Sky, many people probably think of “Carrying You.” It’s a classic that continues to be loved by many as a choral piece even today.
The song is about a journey to protect someone precious.
The chorus, which swells as if in sync with lyrics conveying a strong resolve to move forward, is a must-hear.
The slightly wistful sound also perfectly matches Laputa’s world.

Featuring Masaki Suda on vocals, it stands out with a nostalgic melody and deeply emotive lyrics.
Set to be included on the album “35,” this piece serves as the final installment of the “NO BORDER” trilogy.
Ska-Para’s seasoned performance meshes perfectly with Suda’s vocals, resulting in a song that truly resonates with listeners.
It’s a perfect tune for a long autumn night—why not listen while thinking of someone special?
A Little MiracleTokyo Joshi Ryu
The ending theme for Season 4 (October–March) is “Chiisana Kiseki” (“A Small Miracle”).
As with “Onnaji Kimochi” and “Taisetsu na Kotoba,” the vocals are performed by the girls’ dance and vocal group Tokyo Girls’ Style.
This song is a pep anthem you’ll want to listen to when things aren’t going well or when you’re facing an insurmountable wall.
While the melody is a bit more mature for a Hanakappa song, its positive lyrics are something we definitely want children to hear!

Chuo FreewayMatsutōya Yumi
A famous song included on the album “The 14th Moon.” Back then, it was popular to go for drives on the Chuo Expressway while listening to this track, taking in sights like Suntory’s Musashino Brewery and Tokyo Racecourse.
It’s an indispensable piece among Yuming’s masterpieces.
cherry blossomMatsuda Seiko
This was Seiko Matsuda’s fourth single, released in January 1981.
Not limited to this song, many so-called “idol songs” of the 1980s are easier for anyone to hum along to compared to J-pop from the 1990s onward, which leaned more toward artist-driven music.
That makes them great keywords to search when people who aren’t confident singers are looking for karaoke material.
This song is no exception: while it does incorporate some elements of the so-called New Music that was popular at the time, it’s crafted as a classic, straight-ahead idol song.
So most people should be able to sing it at a decent level without any trouble.
You can even have fun with it as a “bit” by doing a playful impersonation!
Cherish ChristmasHayashibara Megumi
This song conveys the overflowing excitement of spending Christmas together for the first time.
It’s a Christmas track included on voice actress Megumi Hayashibara’s 1996 album bertemu.
The album reached No.
3 on the Oricon weekly chart—quite an achievement! I remember she had a huge fanbase back then, and her singing was of a very high caliber.
little oneHayashi Asuka
This is singer-songwriter Asuca Hayashi’s third single, released in July 2003.
It was chosen as the theme song for the film Pokémon: Advanced Generation the Movie – Jirachi: Wish Maker.
As for Asuca Hayashi, she’s a vocalist whose appeal lies in her powerful, full-bodied voice and high level of expressive singing.
In this beautiful ballad introduced here, you can fully enjoy her captivating vocals.
As a female vocal piece, there are many sections—especially in the A and B verses—that require singing in the lower register, so whether you can handle those parts well will likely be the key to succeeding with this song at karaoke.
Of course, there’s also a wide range of expressive techniques used in the higher register, making it a very challenging choice for karaoke.
