Songs with titles starting with “To.” Introducing picks from popular tracks across generations! (371–380)
door; doorway; gate; title page (context-dependent)reina
Reina, the winner of the next-generation singer discovery audition by SHOWROOM and Virgin Music.
She’s a newcomer drawing industry attention as someone who could make a big impact on the future J-pop scene.
Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is Tobira.
While it doesn’t have a narrow vocal range, there are few parts where you need to belt, and there’s only one spot with falsetto at the end of the chorus, so it’s a good pick even for those who lack confidence in their singing.
passing showerren
Ren is a singer-songwriter who mainly works on social media, with a singing voice that conveys gentleness within strength.
The song “Passing Shower,” released on November 22, 2023, was produced as part of the promotion for the novel “Love, Obsession, People Die.” Its delicate ensemble, tinged with shadow, links exquisitely with lyrics that evoke a certain sense of danger.
It’s a sentimental pop tune, marked by a fragile yet spacious melody and sound that leave a lasting impression.

Tori-chan Passaidoru torigoe
Idol Torigoe, a comedian who also performs as an active underground idol, caused a big stir in 2023 with a song that joked about how she resembles Westland’s Iguchi.
Her 3rd single, “Torichan-tsū,” sticks in your head with its hysteric synth sound and idol-style melody.
The catchy, rapid-fire chorus will make you want to sing along before you know it.
It’s an impactful number, and you should also pay attention to the poppy dance featured in the music video.
Anonymous StratagemAtsukitaketomo
Singer-songwriter Atsuki Taketomo, known for his striking rock-flavored musical style.
He has many hit tunes, but the one I especially recommend for men with higher voices is AnonyMysterious.
This isn’t just another high-pitched song; it demands power.
It prioritizes mixed voice over falsetto, and with its touches of metal, the difficulty level rises considerably—but it’s perfect for showcasing the appeal of high notes.
Give it a try.
The time will never come.Amerika min’yō kenkyūkai
If you want to fully immerse yourself in sonic depth, give this track a listen.
It’s a piece by Haniwa, also known as the American Folk Song Research Society, released in March 2025.
The sound has a lo-fi texture while incorporating elements of breakbeats and shoegaze.
The vocal work is distinctive as well, layering poetry reading, singing, and voice libraries multiple times.
This work shines with experimental sound design—be sure to take your time and listen closely.
Friendship HymnAmerika min’yō (sakushi: Sakata Hiroo)
A heartwarming melody that gently portrays the bonds between people.
Based on an American folk tune, this piece features Japanese lyrics by poet and author Hiroo Sakata, conveying to children the importance of friendship and unity.
Since its introduction on NHK’s “Okaasan to Issho,” it has continued to be loved in many settings, including school music materials and children’s events.
The lyrics, which express the joy of holding hands with friends around the world and singing together with smiles, teach us the beauty of friendship that transcends borders.
When everyone stands in a circle and sings, smiles are sure to come naturally.
How about singing it together at kindergarten or nursery school gatherings, or in settings for exchange and interaction?
I’ve got friends.Elefanto Kashimashi
I think this song by The Elephant Kashimashi is a classic that sings about the importance of friendship.
In the hustle and bustle of the city, it’s a great chance to convey the warmth of having friends to those who feel lonely! First, let Hiroji Miyamoto’s powerful vocals move their hearts, get them interested in the lyrics that make you reflect on friendship, and let even those who want to listen alone enjoy it.
Released in September 2004, the song was also used as the ending theme for TV Asahi’s “Suzuki Timer.”
