Mieharu Karaoke Late Summer Ver. 'Songs with Lyrics That Hit Home'

Whoa! You startled me!
I was thinking, 'Oh my, that sounds fun,' as I heard singing voices echoing here and there, and then it came to me! 🤣

A baton tossed my way by my dear friend Miyu-chan.
I wonder if I can properly pass it on to the next person.

Nice to meet you, Mieharu-san and Chainner-san.
You might be wondering who I am, but I look forward to getting to know you! 💦

With that said, let's sing!
Here are my personal top 5 'songs with lyrics that hit home' 🎤


LIAR by Akina Nakamori

With one lie, I tell another.
I can't forgive selfish people.

I don't want you to see me as a woman
who thinks it's enough just to cry.

Waking up alone the next morning—is that what freedom is?

LIAR / Akina Nakamori

A strong woman. A woman trying to be strong.
But she's a LIAR, isn't she...
It's heartbreaking.

Hotel Without Time by Yumi Matsutoya

Serious news is soon forgotten,
only gossip remains.

If you turn the revolving door a little,
the outside air flows in, but
a bellboy in uniform rushes over to stop it.

Invisible to the eye, all over the world,
violent rivers are swirling.

This is the hotel without time, left behind,
a place to enjoy the 20th century.
The guests who have had their beards plucked
must never leave this place.

Hotel Without Time / Yumi Matsutoya

It's a song released in 1999, but it has an eeriness that still resonates today.
Even now, it feels like we're trapped in a hotel without time...

Habit by SEKAI NO OWARI

You guys want to classify, distinguish, and categorize everything.
I'm an adult, so I shouldn't say this, but

preaching is honestly a pleasure.
The world is immediately about money, love, luck, or fate.

Why do you sum it all up in two characters?

Habit / SEKAI NO OWARI

Refreshing venom.
A stinging punch to us, who became the very adults we swore we wouldn't become!
Ouch! 😭

Peace and Highlight by Southern All Stars

There are many circumstances, but
let's try to know each other's good points.

Let's plant seeds of hope.
Let's grow love on this earth.
Born on this wonderful planet (homeland),
why do humans forget
the sad past and foolish acts?

Don't hesitate to love.

Peace and Highlight / Southern All Stars

A message that is just so direct!
I can only nod in agreement.
We should have learned our lesson in the 20th century, right? 😔

Tanjo (Birth) - Miyuki Nakajima

Like a child born crying,
you came here crying to live once more.

Remember, when you were born, everyone must have been told
Listen closely and remember,
the first thing you heard: Welcome.

Remember, but if you can't remember,
I will always say to you,
Thank you for being born, Welcome.

Tanjo / Miyuki Nakajima

Finally, it has to be this song.
I was probably born a little earlier than all of you, so let me say this:
"Thank you for being born, Welcome!!!"


With that said, I would like to pass the baton to these people!

I always enjoy reading your wonderful tanka poems.
I gathered that you must love karaoke as well... 😍

I'm grateful for your help at the Haiku Kindergarten.
Since we are from the same generation, I wonder if our song choices are similar? ...I would love to hear them! 😍


If you are busy or feel it might be a bit difficult, there is a baton relay return system available.
I will post Chainner-san's article below.

[Return System ①]
If you received the baton but don't want to write a 'Mieharu Karaoke Late Summer Version', please return the baton to me (Chainner) or Mieharu-san!

Here are the two methods:
① Write a note saying "I'm returning it to Chainner" or "I'm returning it to Mieharu-san" and share this note, and either I or Mieharu-san will take it over and write the 'Mieharu Karaoke Late Summer Version'!Please feel free to return the baton to us without hesitation!
② Alternatively,
without writing a note, you can just write in the comments of this note of mine that you are returning the baton, and that is also OK.Please do it in a way that is not a burden for you!

[Return System ②]
If you received the baton and wrote a note, but don't want to pass the baton to anyone else, please return the baton to me (Chainner) or Mieharu-san!

Since it is a baton received from a precious noter, I will participate, but passing the baton would be a burden to other noters, so I don't want to pass it on...
That is also a valid decision.
In that case, if you write in your note, "I'm returning it to Chainner" or "I'm returning it to Mieharu-san", then I or Mieharu-san will take it over and write another 'Mieharu Karaoke Late Summer Version'!
Please feel free to return the baton to us without hesitation!

[Return System ③]
Anchor Declaration

If you participate in the "Mieharu Karaoke Late Summer Version" and passing the baton would be a burden to other noters, so you don't want to pass it on...
as another method for such people, there is an Anchor Declaration.
After you write your "Mieharu Karaoke Late Summer Version", make an "Anchor Declaration" and cross the finish line as is!
The baton will not be passed on to me or Mieharu-san, and it will end there!
This is a method for those who feel bad about passing it on to me or Mieharu-san!

Well then, thank you very much! 🤗
