[Karaoke] Singing is great. [Baton Relay Project]

Yuuu passed this on to me!＼(^o^)／

I didn't know note had these kinds of...

projects where circles of people expand! Oh my, how wonderful!!

I have a strong feeling of, 'Is it really okay for someone like me to participate!?' but~
since it's been passed to me, I'll make sure to pass it on! Hey!

Yuuu-san, thank you so much for passing this precious baton to me 🥹

This is my first time receiving a baton, so I'm not really sure about the customs or anything...

It seems the organizers of this karaoke baton project are these two people!

Thank you for such a wonderful project 🙇‍♀️

And to those reading this article, nice to meet you. (For those who don't know me yet)

My name is 'Kuroko'. Born in 1988, 36 years old. Barely the Showa generation!✌︎('ω')✌︎

I was a Heisei-era band girl, and I used to be a snack bar mama, so karaoke and I have an inseparable bond. (?)

Leave the duets to me too 💪

...is what I'd like to say, but

regarding Yuuu-san's request, or rather,'What kind of songs do band girls sing at karaoke?'since you seemed interested in that!

This time, I'd like to choose 5 songs, focusing mainly on V-Kei (Visual Kei) tracks 🙋‍♀️

When I go to karaoke, I sing these 🙋‍♀️

Are you guys still ready to go!? Clang!🥁

Are you ready to go!?!? Clang!🥁

Are you trying to die!?!? Shan!🥁

Bring it oooooon!!! Wooooooooy!!!!

1. I always sing the GazettE songs!🎤

Well, there aren't many songs that can be officially posted...

Among them, this is probably the one I sing most often.

It was the opening theme for the anime 'Black Butler', right? 'SHIVER'!

Actually, I still haven't fully recovered from the death of bassist REITA...

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Heisei-era 'bangya' (visual kei fans) and the GazettE are a set.

It's a band packed with my youth.

Next is this one💁‍♀️

2. I always sing DIR EN GREY songs too!🎤

The one I sing most often is this one! 'Yokan' I guess. The intro alone gets me hyped! I'm getting excited!!!

Most karaoke places have the original music videos anyway.

I sing while admiring the members in their nostalgic visuals, wearing 90s visual kei makeup and costumes.

3. I always sing SID songs too!🎤

Since this was the ending theme for the anime 'Fullmetal Alchemist', I bet a lot of people know it!?

A lot of people know SID even if they aren't visual kei fans! So it's easy to sing along to!!

Vocalist Mao-nyan has a high voice, so the original key is fine, but I'm delivering this with the useless information that I personally find +1 easier to sing💁‍♀️

And as you might have vaguely noticed,

I love anime!!

Or rather, visual kei fans are usually otaku. (According to my research)

I've written this before, but while there are otaku who aren't visual kei fans, I wonder if visual kei fans who aren't otaku even exist...?

I don't know, though.

So, next up is this!

4. Cruel Angel's Thesis! ♬

I've been singing male songs up until now, but I'll reveal the fact here that my natural voice is actually on the higher side, so it's easier for me to sing songs by female vocalists... 🎤 lol

That was my voice trainer-wannabe explanation 💁‍♀️ lol

Oh right, and you see, this song called 'A Cruel Angel's Thesis' is versatile.

It's an anime song that light otaku, people who aren't, and even older generations all know, right?

Also, I often sing this one too because it's accepted by such a wide range of people.

5. Boukyaku no Sora! It's SADS!!

Ikebukuro West Gate Park! IWGP!! So nostalgic!!!

This is also a song everyone knows, even if they aren't visual kei fans!

The key is to channel Kiyoharu a little when singing it☝︎

(Is that true?)

I'll sing it with strong vibrato! And with a lot of character! 🎤

Oh man, the character count!! Sorry for being so long! I'm the type of person who can't stop once I start talking 🙇‍♀️

I could actually keep going, but that's it for today!! (Is there a sequel? lol)

So, those were the 5 songs chosen by a 36-year-old former visual kei fan to sing at karaoke!

Also, I actually wrote an article about karaoke before, so if you'd like, please read it to kill some time!

☝︎This one isn't limited to visual kei, lol

It's full of songs I didn't introduce here~🎤

(And now it's been revealed that the illustration this time is a reuse...)

Well then, since this is a baton relay, I have to pass the baton to the next person, but...

Kaze no Boushi-san!🧢

It has to be you...!

I'm always grateful for your support. I'm constantly hitting the 'like' button.

And congratulations on reaching 1500 followers! 1500 people! That's amazing!! I respect you! 👏

In honor of your 1500 followers (?), I'd love for you to take the baton...!

Here are the rules for the baton🏃

If it seems impossible, there is also a 'return system' to Chainner-san.

So if you can do it, that would be great... no, please, I really hope you do 🙇‍♀️

☝︎Which one is it (lol)
