Yorushika’s “Kaseijin” (Martian), with its cute intro, was released on May 9, 2025, and was chosen as the opening theme for season 2 of the TV anime “The Deductive Reasoning for Small-Fry” (Shoshimin Series).

With a relaxed tempo of 100 BPM, it’s easy to learn and great for beginners! The song’s range is F3–A4, which sits in a comfortable key for many women, making it easy to sing naturally without strain—that’s a plus! It’s good to aim for smooth transitions between the sung lines and the more spoken-style phrases while keeping the rhythm.

Try to keep the placement of your voice consistent—focus around the space between your eyebrows—and aim for a light, polished “public-facing” tone, both when singing and speaking lightly.

The spot that resonates when you hum is the area between the eyebrows, so practice humming without tension first, then transition that into your singing voice.

The Old Man and the SeaYorushika

Beginning with gentle guitar strains, this song draws inspiration from Ernest Hemingway’s renowned novel and evokes a comforting feeling, as if you were on a quiet seaside.

Suis’s crystalline vocals seem to weave a story that transcends reality and journeys deep into the heart.

It may be centered on the inner strength of humans who refuse to lose hope even in the face of hardship.

Released in August 2021, the piece became widely known as the TV commercial song for Vanish Standard Inc.’s service “STAFF START.” It resonated with many, aligning with the commercial’s message, “A world where you don’t have to give up on what you love.” It’s perfect for moments when you want to spend time leisurely by the sea or quietly sink into contemplation—ideal listening when you’re in the mood to relax.

This is also a recommended track for those who enjoy music with literary depth.

It’s a song that hurls questions at life: “Is it so wrong to want to live doing nothing?” It also sharply calls out the contradictions of this world.

And yet, no one tells you how to fill the hole in your heart.

It captures that frustration and urgency—an empathetic song for those struggling with life.

“Beautiful”—that’s the first word that comes to mind for this song.

It’s rare to find a track that draws you in so much from the intro alone.

And it doesn’t stop there: just when you think it’s a gentle ballad with piano at the forefront, a sudden explosion of strings bursts in.

It’s a very enjoyable and beautiful piece.

The First NightYorushika

A 2023 April single by Yorushika, a Japanese male–female rock duo consisting of composer n-buna and vocalist suis.

It’s a very bittersweet and beautiful ballad built around a piano-centric backing track.

Despite being an excellent piece, the vocal melody doesn’t span a particularly wide range, and the melody itself is relatively simple, making it one of the best choices when you want to aim for a high score in karaoke.

Since the song is sung gently overall, almost like a whisper, be careful not to let your own singing become rough—cherish each word of the lyrics and sing with care.

ElmaYorushika

Elma, which is also the title of Yorushika’s second full album.

As background, it’s a song that grieves for a girl who is no longer here.

The refreshing scenery scattered throughout the lyrics evokes sadness through memories of her.

With Yorushika’s clear voice and beautiful lyrics, it feels as if you’re reading a novel.

Yorushika’s new song is a gem written as the theme for the film “Shoutai” (True Identity).

The world conjured by n-buna’s poetic lyrics and suis’s clear, translucent vocals is breathtaking.

Through natural motifs like butterflies, the sun, deserts, and the sea, it questions the fragility of life and the meaning of human existence.

Released in November 2024, the track has also drawn attention for its music video created in collaboration with art director Tetsuya Nagato.

Seamlessly fusing with the film’s worldview, the song is perfect for quiet nights or reflective moments.

Give it a try at karaoke, too.
