USD feat. NENEKid Fresino
A track by KID FRESINO, who, together with Shokuhin Matsuri, rebuilt the beat using Denki Groove’s “Upside Down” as source material.
Released in December 2025, this ambitious work translates the dynamism of dance music into a contemporary hip-hop sensibility.
KID FRESINO’s dry, monologue-like delivery intersects with NENE’s razor-sharp flow, yielding a result that, while gazing at the same motif, conveys distinctly different temperatures.
It’s a must-listen for anyone seeking a musical experience that transcends genre boundaries.
the world of dreamssakushi: furō akiko / sakkyoku: hashimoto shōji
Memories of treading on fallen leaves, an avenue bathed in the glow of the setting sun, the chirping of small birds, and the clear scene of a babbling brook.
Interweaving these tangible touches of nature, this song calls on friends to share their dreams together.
Born from an NHK music program in the 1970s and later arranged as a choral piece, it was composed by Yoshimichi Hashimoto, who, while deeply involved in creating educational materials at Kyoiku Geijutsu Sha, left behind many works that balance singability with evocative imagery.
Its gentle, swaying 6/8 rhythm naturally supports a sense of walking and the flow of scenery, and the structure—expanding from unison in the first half to full chorus in the latter—is a highlight.
It is a song that quietly encourages children to take a new step on the special day of graduation, as they look back on memories with their friends.
pinky promiseSakushi: Shinzawa Toshihiko / Sakkyoku: Nakagawa Hirotaka
The song “Yubikiri” makes you want to promise, “We’ll be friends forever,” as you remember days spent with friends.
The lyrics are by Toshihiko Shinzawa and the music is by Hirotaka Nakagawa.
Set against everyday, simple scenes, the song warmly and movingly portrays children’s shifting emotions and unchanging friendship.
Although it was originally released around 2007, it was included in the best-of album “Toshihiko Shinzawa & Hirotaka Nakagawa: Full of Songs,” released in July 2017, and has since become beloved at many preschools and kindergartens.
It’s also lovely to sing while making the pinky-swear gesture and looking at each other’s faces.
Please consider choosing this piece for important occasions like graduation or farewell ceremonies to deepen the bonds between friends.
U.S.A.DA PUMP
A comeback hit by DA PUMP that popularized the term “so uncool it’s cool.” It’s easy for anyone to get into, and the choreography isn’t difficult, so it’s easy to copy! That said, since vocalist ISSA has a relatively high range, the song’s overall range is narrow at B3–B4, but the chorus stays high.
If you’re good at sustained high notes in chest voice, you’ll be able to sing the whole thing comfortably.
If high notes are tough for you, try moving your body while you sing—matching your movement to your timing should help you lock in those high notes more and more.
Songs with titles starting with “Yu” (61–70)
The sunset is your canvas.Inagaki Junichi
This is a love story that begins with a greedy woman murmuring that she wants to see a rainbow while bathed in the sunset.
The song was used in December 2016 as the commercial theme for the Daihatsu Move Canbus, and once the ad aired, inquiries poured in; responding to strong listener demand, it was released digitally.
The lyrics, crafted by Tetsurō Asō, gently paint the bittersweetness and wishes directed at a lover whose expressions and feelings change from moment to moment, likening the sunset to a canvas.
The spatial resonance known as the Wall of Sound highlights the sweet, enveloping vocals, while Junichi Inagaki’s signature urban mellowness spreads pleasantly.
Also included on the album HARVEST, this piece is perfect for those moments of watching the sunset from a car window during a drive.
U MINEINI
Included on the single “THE WINTER MAGIC,” released in November 2025, this track also drew attention for featuring member Fengfan Xu’s participation in the lyrics.
Its lyrics interweave the crisp, transparent feeling of winter with devoted love, reminding you of the warm emotions you hold for someone special.
With high tones and an exhilarating sound that resonate in your ears and your heart, it’s a pop tune perfect for winter listening.
youthful daysMr.Children
It’s a track driven by a exhilarating, fast-paced band sound, with lyrics that vividly capture everyday moments and strike right at the heart.
Released as a Mr.Children single in November 2001, many may remember it as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “Antique: Western Confectionery.” Its worldview—depicting the conflicts of youth and the fleeting nature of time that vanishes in an instant—shines with Kazutoshi Sakurai’s uniquely sharp sensibility.
The melody, like water soaking into a parched heart, is perfect for a sunny-day drive or those moments when you feel like looking back on the past.
