Dreams are to be seen and to be fulfilled.Hayashi Miwako
Miwa Hayashi, an enka singer who captivates fans with her heart-piercing “sympathetic voice,” released the single “Dreams Are to Be Seen and Fulfilled” in August 2025.
It’s an uplifting anthem for everyone pursuing their dreams, with a lively melody and a positive message that resonates deeply.
Both her vocals and the arrangement carry a warmth that feels like a gentle push forward.
It’s a kayō number brimming with positive energy—perfect for moments when you’re ready to take on a new challenge.
Melancholy and part-time jobyangusukinii
Have you ever found yourself forcing a polite smile at your part-time job, only to feel your heart worn down by all the unfairness? The song by Young Skinny captures the futile, heavy feelings of those working days.
The repeating shifts, dealing with awful customers, and the suffocating act of pretending to be cheerful—this inescapable gloom pairs with vocalist Kayayu’s exquisitely bittersweet high tone to resonate deeply with listeners.
Released in October 2021 and later included on the mini-album “If I Have to Act, I’d Rather Just Be Myself,” this track gently reminds overworked hearts that you’re not alone.
You might find yourself nodding along to its painfully relatable depictions.
EuterpeEGOIST
With a translucent singing voice that lights a single beam of hope in a ruined world, this is a song by EGOIST.
The fundamental question of why people hurt and fight each other is quietly posed to a flower blooming in the field.
The track was included on the single Departures ~Anata ni Okuru Ai no Uta~ released in November 2011, and, as an insert song in episode 1 of the TV anime Guilty Crown, it left a striking impression at the opening of the story.
It was later included on the acclaimed album GREATEST HITS 2011-2017 “ALTER EGO.” When your heart is weary from the clamor of everyday life, why not listen to that voice?
yuzusutoorii
I looked it up because I thought, “This sounds really familiar,” and it turned out to be the CM song for Toyota’s Ractis! It’s a single released in 2008.
Since it’s a Yuzu song, the range is higher than the average male vocal range, so if you’re good at high notes, it’s easy to sing and a good candidate to aim for a perfect 100.
The chorus has many sustained endings, so make sure to take a breath for each phrase and pay close attention to the pitch bar.
I always told a student who loved Yuzu and sang them all the time, “It’s high, so keep your facial muscles lifted so your pitch doesn’t drop!” It can be tough until you get used to it, but once your pitch dips even for a moment, it’s hard to correct.
Of course, it’s fine to switch to falsetto—just make sure you can place the pitch solidly around the brow area.
The most important factor in scoring is pitch, so focus on maintaining it!
YuuSenchimirimentaru
A warm love song released under the solo project “Sentimental” by Atsushi Onji.
The track is included on the album “Cafuné,” set for release in August 2025.
Gentle piano and guitar tones highlight the preciousness of everyday moments spent with a loved one, and its simple affection—repainting painful memories in happy colors by staying together—leaves your heart quietly warmed.
It’s a song you’ll want to listen to on nights when you’re thinking of someone special.
Dream GuideYamaguchi Momoe
Momoe Yamaguchi, the legendary idol who left behind many timeless hits.
If you’re in your 60s, regardless of gender, you’ve probably heard her voice.
Among her songs, one I especially recommend for being both exciting and easy to sing is Yumesaki Annainin (Dream Guide).
It’s a bright, quintessentially Showa-era tune, yet the vocal line is very simple, with no phrases that require complex pitch movements.
If you want to liven things up with a song brimming with classic Showa charm, definitely add this one to your repertoire.

I can’t stay a daydreaming girlAikawa Nanase
This is Nanase Aikawa’s debut single, shocking with its razor-sharp intro guitar riff and a powerful shout you’d never expect from such a petite frame.
You can really feel the searing resolve: she refuses to be someone who just keeps dreaming sweet dreams.
The way she sings of the ache of longing for love while vowing to charge through reality without fear of getting hurt must have made a striking impact on the music scene at the time.
Released in November 1995, the song was used as the ending theme for the Fuji TV drama “V no Honō” (Flame of V).
Her first album Red, which includes this track, became a massive hit, selling over 2.45 million copies.
If you’re wishing to break through the status quo and become stronger, listening to it might give you a powerful push forward.
