Yuzu’s greatest and most popular songs

We’d like to introduce songs by Yuzu, a classic J-pop artist.

Their music is now heard in a variety of settings, and they’re a very popular act.

As a folk duo that performs with just instruments like acoustic guitar and tambourine plus vocals, many people likely practiced their songs when they first started doing acoustic covers.

It’s said that their unit name, Yuzu, comes from the yuzu sherbet they ate at a staff meal for a part-time job they worked at together.

They have many bright, catchy tunes, and plenty you’ll recognize, making them perfect for karaoke.

Why not try practicing with this playlist?

When it comes to acoustic units known for their high-tone vocals, isn’t Yuzu the first that comes to mind? The folk duo of Yujin Kitagawa and Koji Iwasawa is popular across a wide range of generations, regardless of age or gender.

Their soaring high notes are captivating, and their beautiful high-tone harmonies are powerful as well.

“Imasara” is a song with a slightly different flavor from Yuzu’s usual style.

With an ethnic mood that hints at the influence of Indian music, it’s perfect for changing up the stale atmosphere of a karaoke session!

Many of Yuzu’s songs evoke a fresh, summery vibe.

Released in 1999, the track “Sentimental” is also a great summer song to get the crowd going at karaoke.

While it paints scenes of midsummer in full swing, true to its title “Sentimental,” it also hints at emotional, nostalgic moments—reminiscent of an old romance, as if recalling some summer from the past.

With relatively few high notes, a simple melodic line, and a distinctive kayōkyoku-inspired feel, the chorus’s gradual build and the higher parts should be easy to hum along to.

Yuzu “Two Words” by Warabeuta

It’s a moving message song packed tightly with feelings for someone precious.

It’s a track by the musical duo Yuzu, who have produced numerous hit songs like “Eikou no Kakehashi” and “Muscat,” and it’s included on their ninth album, FURUSATO, released in 2009.

It’s said to have taken a long time to make, so it’s surely a song that means a lot to the two members of Yuzu.

As for what the “two words” in the title are, try inserting your own words and give it a listen.

A perfect song for a fresh start is Yuzu’s “Sakamichi.” Let’s let this tune’s lively rhythm and bright melody give us a hand.

If things get awkward, if the party vibe turns chilly—just blast it and power through.

Feel free to rattle a tambourine, too.
