Carefully selected recommendations of Kenshi Yonezu’s songs—unforgettable masterpieces (71–80)
AliceYonezu Kenshi
A well-known example featuring Daiki Tsuneta of King Gnu is “爱丽丝.” This title is Chinese for “Alice,” referring to Alice from “Alice in Wonderland,” and the song depicts a woman who has wandered into a mysterious world.
The track is characterized by a rock-infused sound and raw, rough-edged vocals.
There are parts that call for a shouting style, so keep that in mind when you sing.
At the same time, it’s also a song that makes it easy to use vibrato, making it a great choice when you want to aim for a high score.
Stagnation is almost the same as decline.Yonezu Kenshi
After starting out as a Vocaloid producer, Kenshi Yonezu began his career as a singer-songwriter and has now become an indispensable figure in the J-pop scene.
These are some of the words he once posted on his X account: to gain something, you have to let something go, and it’s better to take action in pursuit of something new than to remain as you are.
They’re words that give you strength when you want to act but can’t take the first step, or when you’re stuck and struggling—moments when you feel like you might come to a halt.
Sand PlanetYonezu Kenshi
Kenshi Yonezu is also well known for his work as a Vocaloid producer under the name “Hachi.” With that in mind, the song I’d like to introduce is Sand Planet.
It was written as the theme song for Magical Mirai 2017 and originally featured Hatsune Miku as the main vocalist, but a self-cover version was later released.
Choose whichever version suits your own vocal quality and is easier for you to sing.
Another appeal is the abundance of catchy phrases that make the lyrics easy to remember.
PlasmaYonezu Kenshi
The world of Kenshi Yonezu woven from imaginative melodies and innovative electronic sounds.
Set against the backdrop of space, this work—depicting life’s choices and fateful encounters—was released in January 2025 as the theme song for the animated film “Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX -Beginning-.” It carries Yonezu’s signature delicate sensibility and straightforward passion, familiar from albums like “diorama” and “BOOTLEG.” Alongside its high-energy musicality, the lyrics powerfully convey the courage to step into new worlds and the drive to face the unknown, leaving a deep impression.
It’s a song I especially recommend to younger listeners who are determined to forge their own path.
I wish I could be a bird.Yonezu Kenshi
It would be really cool to sing a song that only a true fan would choose, right? With that in mind, I’d like to introduce “Even If I Could Become a Bird.” It’s a track included on the second single “MAD HEAD LOVE/Poppin’ Apathy,” and it wasn’t released as a standalone single.
Still, it’s highly popular among fans.
The lyrics convey love from a first-person perspective, which also makes it appealing because it’s easy to put your emotions into it when singing.
FlamingoYonezu Kenshi
Flamingo, whose lyrics make playful use of many archaic expressions, is intriguingly wordplay-like.
It was released in 2018 as a double A-side single together with TEENAGE RIOT.
The lyrics depict how the desire to get closer to an unattainable object of admiration gradually turns into resentment.
Its distinctive rhythms and intricate vocal melodies are challenging, but extremely rewarding to play.
Practice so you can perform it with a good groove while fully capturing the song’s atmosphere!
LADYYonezu Kenshi
“LADY” is a song whose straightforward lyrics about cherishing a special girlfriend make your heart flutter.
Released digitally in 2023, it was featured in a Georgia commercial.
The melody has an urban yet gentle feel that warms the heart.
Since the song is built on a shuffle rhythm, be mindful of how you keep time when performing it.
If you play the chorus melody with a focus on its flow, you can perform it beautifully.
Try to honor the beauty of the melody and the overall soft atmosphere when you play.
