Released in 2023 by DECO*27—known for numerous signature hits—and PinocchioP—renowned for his unique musical worldview—“I’m Not a Devil.” Over a driving electro sound, Hatsune Miku’s agile, expressive vocals unfold.

The song is structured like a dialogue between two selves within the heart, portraying a cute persona that evokes a strong-willed girl.

Seikai-chan and Kafu-chan’s Errand CapriccioMinami no Minami

There’s no doubt it would hype up the crowd if you could sing it, but actually getting through it is insanely tough! It’s a track by Vocaloid producer Minaminominami, released in 2022.

This denpa-style song took 2nd place in the TOP 100 ranking of Vocalo Collection Autumn 2022.

Its theme of “going to buy ingredients for curry udon” connects to the world of Kafu-chan’s Curry Udon Rhapsody, which was released for Vocalo Collection Spring 2022.

Many people probably recognized it as a Minaminominami song just from the title.

Since it has call-and-response parts, it’s also great for a duet with a friend who loves Vocaloid!

Unlike the mainstream Japanese music scene, the Vocaloid community tends to be more welcoming to novelty/comedic songs.

Among recent meme tracks, many of you might immediately think of the particularly striking “Still Waiting for Your Reply?💦 The Middle-Aged Man Texting Style😁❗️,” right? While this piece features the trademark rapid-fire delivery typical of Vocaloid, its vocal range isn’t especially wide, nor does it have extreme melodic leaps.

As a novelty song, it’s a guaranteed crowd-pleaser, and on top of that, it’s relatively easy to sing—making it a smart addition to your repertoire.

With its cute melody and lyrics, this is a song that really suits a female vocalist.

It’s fun whether you sing it solo or with a group.

The tempo is relaxed, and since it doesn’t have the high notes typical of many Vocaloid songs, it’s easy to sing.

It’s especially sure to liven things up at karaoke when there are lots of women.

Boo-hoo, yodel! (a playful ghostly greeting)Wada Takeaki

Here’s a track that’s guaranteed to get everyone hyped.

Wada Takeaki’s songs are loved not only for their cool sound, but also for lyrics that, while pop, carry a slightly mysterious world view.

The fresh lyrics packed with onomatopoeia will grow on you the more you listen.

If you sing it at karaoke, the lyrics themselves might get the crowd going, too…
