swayingSuda Masaki
While fast songs where you can’t quite keep up with the lyrics can sometimes be glossed over with sheer momentum, many people find them difficult.
On the other hand, this song, “Yurayura,” is perfect for those moments when a somber ballad doesn’t feel right either.
Written and composed by Masaki Suda, its lyrics—said to capture everyday trifles and scenes that caught his eye—feel relatable.
It’s also appealing in that you can sing it gently without forcing your voice, and its approachable, naturally unspooling delivery should make it easy to sing.
YoursSuda Masaki
Masaki Suda’s hit tune “Yours.” Since falsetto appears right from the intro, many people probably feel this song is difficult.
It’s true the overall range is high and it uses a lot of falsetto and mixed voice, but lowering the key can solve those issues fairly easily.
There’s also a key change partway through, but it’s not the kind that makes it hard to sing; if you learn the vocal line well, you should be able to sing it without problems.
As a rule, you adjust the key around the highest phrase.
However, in the latter half of this song the energy ramps up, so you don’t need to deliver perfectly clean high notes.
For that reason, it’s also recommended to set the key based on the falsetto in the opening.
A love letter written in the snowKikuchi Momoko
This is one of Momoko Kikuchi’s signature songs, created during her rise as a pure, girl-next-door idol, and set against the backdrop of a white Christmas Eve.
Through the image of entrusting hidden feelings to the falling snow, it conveys the purity, bittersweetness, and single-minded devotion of being in love.
Released in 1984 as Kikuchi’s third single, it reached No.
3 on the Oricon weekly chart and became a hit, selling around 350,000 copies.
Gently singing of the ache of wintertime love and the yearning for unattainable dreams, this song is recommended for quiet moments spent alone in the cold season or when you find yourself thinking of someone special.
Sound of SnowAoi Shota
“Yuki no Oto,” sung by Shouta Aoi—who is also active as a voice actor and stage actor—is a song that depicts a heartbroken man whose emotions are stirred by the fleeting nature of snow.
It’s a pop track with a beautiful blend of strings and synths, and his androgynous voice creates a richly immersive world.
Many listeners will relate to the growing pangs of ache and loneliness amid a wintry landscape blanketed with snow.
It’s a winter song that gives voice to precious feelings that can’t be forgotten, even after a lover has disappeared from right before your eyes.
Dream-foretelling birdFujii Kaori
Enka singer Kaori Fujii, from Nakano Ward in Tokyo.
From a young age, she admired Namie Amuro and SPEED, and starting in second grade she devoted herself to dance lessons and vocal training.
She later enrolled at Toho Gakuen High School (Specialized Training), which allows students to engage in show-business activities, and during high school she worked as a reader model for magazines such as egg.
After stints as an idol and a guide vocalist, she made a late-blooming debut as an enka singer in 2018.
Her appeal lies in performances that are a feast for the eyes as well: her shows mix kayōkyoku and dance, and together with her beautiful looks, they offer enjoyment for both the ears and the eyes.
Lured to Edentatsumi yūto
This is a signature song that represents Yuto Tatsumi’s “kayōkyoku” side, as he masterfully sings both enka and kayōkyoku.
It’s a classic that lets you fully enjoy a different facet of him from his enka singer persona—his sultry, sweet vocals.
Released in 2021, his fourth single, “Sasowarete Eden,” follows the pop-to-kayōkyoku direction of its predecessor, “Sentimental Heart,” and fully capitalizes on Tatsumi’s “prince” character.
The compatibility of kayōkyoku with Latin-flavored arrangements has been proven since the Showa era, and if you’re used to that style, you’ll likely find it very easy to sing.
Conversely, those unfamiliar with it might feel a bit puzzled by the rhythm of the melodic lines, but if you listen to the original over and over and learn it, it’s not that difficult—so definitely give it a try!
