Yume YumeONE OK ROCK
I think ONE OK ROCK is the band that every guy dreams of.
I’m always thinking, “If I’m going to do a band, I want to do ONE OK ROCK!” but the reality is it’s hard to find someone who can sing their keys…
That said, this time with “Yume Yume,” the vocal range is E3–C5, and there aren’t a lot of repeated high notes, so I think more people will be able to sing it.
However, it has more rap parts than singing… You might struggle with the rap sections when learning it! Try changing the playback speed on YouTube and practice by following the lyrics slowly.
If you can sing it, it should go over really well at karaoke, so it’s nice to have at least one ONE OK ROCK song in your repertoire!
U R not aloneGReeeeN
Originally written for the male idol group NEWS and later self-covered, this is a moving number.
The lyrics, like a letter to one’s past self, are striking, and many listeners may find courage in the protagonist who keeps pursuing a dream that others once mocked.
You can hear GReeeeN’s version on the album “UreD,” released in April 2018.
When you feel lonely on the path toward your goal or start to doubt your choices, this song will surely become a source of support.
It’s a gem of a cheer song that teaches the importance of believing in yourself to the very end.

Hiroshi Kitaoka’s debut single.
Released in June 1984, it marked a brilliant start, winning numerous newcomer awards including the ABC Kayō Grand Prize Silver Award, the TV Asahi Music Festival Newcomer Award, and the 17th Japan Cable Awards Newcomer Award.
Although he later established a unique style as an onnagata (female-role) singer, this song lets you savor his richly emotional vocals straight up as an enka singer.
It is also included on his best-of album “~Hitohira Kasanete~,” and continues to be beloved by many fans as an essential track when discussing his career.

This song is a pre-release from their second mini-album, “Seasons of LOVE?,” set for release in November 2025.

The artist known as the “King of Soul,” Sam Cooke—once you hear his sweet, velvety voice, it’s hard not to be captivated.
This gem of a ballad celebrates the exhilaration of falling in love, delivered with his elegant tenor.

You Can’t Hurry LoveThe Supremes
A signature work by The Supremes from Motown, it was released as a single in July 1966.
The song is an encouraging anthem that conveys a warm-hearted lesson from a mother: “When it comes to love, it’s important not to rush—wait patiently.” Musically, it blends buoyant pop with soul into that classic Motown sound, wrapped in a catchy melody that lifts your spirits the moment you hear it.
The track is also included on the acclaimed album “The Supremes A’ Go-Go,” and it topped the Billboard Hot 100 for two consecutive weeks.

Dreaming UniverseBUCK-TICK
This is a work that feels as if you’re gently cradled by the vast cosmos, with a dreamy, floating sensation that is deeply soothing.
Atsushi Sakurai weaves words full of compassion that embrace loneliness, softly colored by Hisashi Imai’s spacey effects and shimmering guitar sounds.
Released to the world in May 2012 as the B-side to the single “Für Elise,” it was later reworked as the title track for the album “Yume Miru Uchuu,” commemorating the 25th anniversary of their debut in September of the same year.
