It’s included on the 1985 album Youthquake.
A six-piece from Liverpool formed in 1980.
The ominous Eurobeat rhythms that were popular in Japan at the time and the synthesizer tones are addictive.
Pete’s low vocals might seem mismatched with the bright melody, but they actually fit perfectly and sound great.
Never Gonna Give You UpRick Astley
It’s included on the 1987 album “Whenever You Need Somebody.” Born in 1966, he’s a British singer-songwriter.
Over a mid-tempo, synth-forward pop track with a catchy melody, his baritone voice delivers an attractive performance that’s utterly enchanting.

Born in the U.S.A.Bruce Springsteen
It’s included on the 1984 album “Born in the U.S.A.” Born in 1949, he’s a singer-songwriter from New Jersey.
From the powerful impact of the intro drums to the Boss’s voice shouting the chorus with force and repetition, the song is overwhelmingly powerful to listen to.
Pumping your fist and singing along feels great.
Every Breath You TakeThe Police
The Police are a British three-piece band.
Their 1983 hit song was “Every Breath You Take.” When they debuted, they showcased a sharp, reggae-based sound, but on this track they deliver a calm, understated performance that naturally draws listeners in.
It’s one of the defining songs of the 1980s.
LightsBTS
A song by BTS (Bangtan Sonyeondan) performed in Japanese, featuring strikingly cool visuals as their popularity rises around the world.
The movement of Asian languages spreading globally feels fresh, and since they sing in Japanese, it’s a track where I want to read the message of the lyrics and interpret it in my own way.
Both the rap and the emotional chorus make it an exceptionally compelling listen.
Call Me MaybeCarly Rae Jepsen
Carly Rae Jepsen is a Canadian singer-songwriter who’s popular in Japan as well.
Among her songs, “Call Me Baby” is especially popular in Japan.
It’s said that the boom there started when a video of the popular talent Rola showing off a dance was uploaded to YouTube.
It’s also a karaoke staple, so you’ve probably heard it at least once.
BAILA BAILA BAILAOzuna
“Baila Baila Baila” by Ozuna, a leading artist of reggaeton—a club sound based on Latin music like reggae and salsa.
Just like the title says, the hip-swaying rhythm makes your body move on its own, and the vocals repeating “dance, dance” are irresistible.
It brings to mind the hot beaches of South America and sexy ladies.
Not that I’ve ever been there.
