Carefully Selected, Easy-to-Sing Songs by Takuro Yoshida! Enjoy Classic Folk Masterpieces (21–30)
My PathNEW!yoshida takurou
The straight, powerful classic “Boku no Michi” (“My Path”).
As the title suggests, it’s filled with the resolve to “live your own way,” “not be swayed by others,” and “keep moving forward,” expressing a distinctly masculine outlook on life.
It’s also recommended for when you want to switch your mindset or when you’re feeling down—the key is believing in your own path.
The vocal range isn’t high, so many people should find it easy to sing.
And since it’s a bit long at around six minutes, don’t go all-out from the start—pace yourself to keep balance to the end.
If you project your voice at the key moments, you’ll add contrast and keep the song engaging without letting listeners lose interest.
Outside, it’s a night of white snow.NEW!yoshida takurou
With lyrics by Takashi Matsumoto and music by Takuro Yoshida, it’s a story depicting a breakup between a man and a woman in a café.
The lyrics alternate between the perspectives of the man and the woman, using symbols like snow, cigarettes, and tears to delicately portray the complex emotions of a selfish man and a woman who accepts everything, as well as their world drifting apart.
It’s a song that continues to be performed live.
It feels far more natural to “narrate” than to “sing.” Because the tempo is a bit quick, I think it’s easier to ride the rhythm and sing if you shape each phrase in an arch right from the opening.
Don’t rush—sing as if you’re speaking the lyrics.
Tell me an eternal lieNEW!yoshida takurou
This is a masterpiece that Miyuki Nakajima wrote for Takuro in 1995 as a message to a “middle-aged man without dreams,” into which she infused the sentiment, “Let me keep dreaming forever,” and “You must not lie about facts, but it’s okay to lie about the truth.” It has a refreshing feel, so from the start, lift your eyebrows and facial muscles and sing with a bright spirit! For the fast passages, the beginning is crucial.
If you pronounce the first sound clearly, the words should flow naturally.
Be mindful of expressiveness and sing with a smile, tinged with heartache!
Friday morningyoshida takurou
It’s a song that conveys both the warmth of days spent with someone special and the loneliness that follows after losing them.
The way everyday sights trigger images of the departed lover really brings out feelings of confusion and regret.
The layered chorus and instrumentation that create a warm atmosphere also evoke an inability to accept reality.
If you focus on a calm tempo and vocal delivery, as if gazing at a landscape, it should be a song that’s easy to sing.
After the Festivalyoshida takurou
This song sings about the loneliness and emptiness that arrive after a big wave of excitement—a kind of festival—has ended.
It was included on the 1972 album “Genki Desu,” and later appeared as the B-side to the single “Rakuyō.” It’s often described as depicting the atmosphere after the decline of the student movement, evoking an image of turning inward and facing one’s own heart precisely because the major upheaval has passed.
To convey the passage of time and emphasize the loneliness, the key is to sing in a relaxed manner.
With a gentle tempo and a conversational feel, it should be a relatively approachable song to perform.
setting sunyoshida takurou
Takuro Yoshida is a trailblazing figure among Japanese singer-songwriters.
As an artist who brought folk music into the mainstream, he has many fans.
Among his songs, the one I’d like to recommend is Rakuyō (Setting Sun).
Although this piece spans a fairly wide vocal range for a male vocal work—from mid1 B to hi G—its tempo is an unusually relaxed BPM 87, which makes it, overall, a relatively easy song to sing.
Which platform is for the train to Osaka?yoshida takurou
A medium-tempo tune whose lyrics, depicting the transience of life and love, gently sink in.
It’s included on the classic 1984 album FOREVER YOUNG.
While the song has a sentimental yet bright atmosphere that wraps around you, and it may seem very easy to sing, in reality its wide vocal range and sharp rises and falls in pitch make it quite challenging.
Even so, the confessional style of singing feels approachable, and with a bit of teamwork among fellow fans or friends, it can become easier and more fun to perform.
It’s a song that can strengthen bonds and inspire the feeling of taking a fresh step forward!
