Wait & See ~Risk~Utada Hikaru
The 5th single “Wait & See ~Risk~,” which also made headlines for featuring American producer duo Jam & Lewis, became a million seller despite having no tie-in, symbolizing Hikaru Utada’s momentum at the time.
While the song is characterized by a wide vocal range and a complex melody, its catchy hooks make it easy to remember and fun to try at karaoke.
It’s a catchy pop tune that I highly recommend tackling in the original key if you’re confident in your high notes.

It’s also used as the theme song for the drama “Miss Target.” This track is perfect for anyone who has experienced heartbreak or carries bittersweet memories of love.
Ieiri’s clear, transparent vocals gently embrace the ache of a wistful heart.

One more time, One more chance PIANO ver.Yamazaki Masayoshi
“One more time, One more chance,” the theme song of 5 Centimeters per Second.
Did you know that this deeply stirring song by Masayoshi Yamazaki is included on the soundtrack in a piano arrangement? This version is a clear departure from a simple piano cover, offering a mysterious feeling that differs from the original’s image.
Listening to this arrangement makes me feel as if I’m slowly sinking to the bottom of a cold, sorrowful sea, and I can’t help but shed tears.
Since it’s the same length as the original, I recommend closing your eyes and immersing yourself in its world for the five minutes it plays.
parting snowYamakawa Yutaka
Among Yutaka Yamakawa’s songs, the especially melancholic masterpiece “Wakare Yuki.” This piece falls on the wider side in terms of vocal range for his repertoire.
However, it does not demand a broad range throughout the entire song.
The only truly high section comes at the end of the chorus; the rest centers on the mid to low register.
The use of kobushi (ornamental scoops common in enka) is also less frequent than in typical enka, and the tempo is relaxed, so despite the wide range, it remains a relatively easy enka song to sing.
Farewell at a Rain-Soaked InnYamakawa Yutaka
Wakare no Shigure Yado, the song featured on the B-side of Yutaka Yamakawa’s renowned classic Aniki, is beloved among fans as a hidden gem.
Among Yamakawa’s works, it especially stands out for its expressive vocals.
While the range isn’t particularly wide, it features techniques such as kobushi embellished with hiccup-like voice flips and an opening delivered with a shout-like intensity.
However, the tempo is very slow and there are a fair number of rests, allowing ample time to prepare for the challenging spots.
Overall, it can be considered a relatively easy song to sing.
