Hey there, as the title says, I’m looking for some songs suggestions. To be more specific, I’m looking for male singed japanese songs, that possibly are not too difficult to sing (tokyo ghoul’s op. for example ). The reason is that singing always made me feel very good, and I can’t really explain why but it’s something that’s always been a great stimulus in learning languages.
The vast majority of songs I love are singed by female singers, and I don’t like to dub those ones. My absolute favorite ones to sing are the most famous ones of the 君の名は movie soundtrack, especially Dream Lantern and Sparkle (special mention to Itomori high school which is instrumental but piano and violin are fire ).
Please suggest your favorites!
I like singing too! Since you mentioned male singers, here are some of the tunes I like that are sung by male singers:
(lyrics: romaji and kanji)
(I personally like this version better: 【VY1V4】Fairytale,【カバー】 - YouTube)
(lyrics: romaji and kanji)
Any of the songs by the band One Ok Rock! Here’s a whole playlist of their songs:
Listening to them now as I’m stuck in traffic and I love the first one already!
I can’t find it on apple music, can you give me the proper full japanese name and author? (In japanese not romaji)
I’m referring to 言の葉の庭
Of course! Glad you like it
Song: Rain
Singer: 秦基博
Mood I hadn’t heard the second one but it’s often as accurate to my daily existence as the first one:p Thanks for sharing:)
On a different song request thread a while back, someone recommended 「上を向いて歩こう」 by 坂本 九
Not modern, but nice and slow and sung by a male singer. Easy to learn. I have it in my karaoke rotation. Allegedly will endear you to the older おじさん and おばさん
Lots of good Radwimps songs, though I prefer the not anime songs.
proceeds to list a bunch of anime songs
Thank you all for the songs, this thread is my official playlist
Let’s go!! Thanks for the suggestion brother
Some oldies (sorry if that’s not your cup of tea):
careful, there’s some rap(ish?) in the middle:
If you don’t have confidence in your singing tone, but can sing fast, I also like a lot of songs by BUMP OF CHICKEN (they do have some slower songs, too, but the fast ones are more fun):
And a few more modern songs I just like:
probably actually really hard to sing (falsetto parts, really fast), but fun:
I just listened to a couple of them and I really like the genres speed is not my strength when I’m learning a language actually, but I’m pretty confident of my tone (I mean, I’m pretty confident it’s shit but still dgaf and enjoy it
Thanks for the suggestions! Playlist grew up a lot and got way more suggestions that I’d expected so it’ll take a while to listen to all but def got a nice pool where to pick the favourites
