Top 10 Vocaloid Songs for 2023

Hi, im Jakob Cobb and I enjoy a good vocaloid song.

Inspired by a certain someone posting about it monthly, I've decided to compile a top 10 list of my favorite vocaloid songs of the year. There is no rhyme or reason about them and it’s 100% just decided on the fact that I love the song for one reason or another

Without much else to say, I will say that this has been an awesome year of vocaloid music and I hope next year continues to be great.

Thanks for reading! Full playlist here, rankings under the cut:

HONORABLE MENTIONS: 花隈の歌は可愛いし小春六花はマジでうるさい - Gyari Honestly just makes the list purely on the fact it makes me happy that Gyari released two vocaloid songs in the year, which is something I thought they never might do again after they dedicated themselves to vtuber creation and management (?) かまぼこかまほろかまことか -  yuro mashima A song im very sad to cut out of the top ten, all due to the fact this song was released on December 30 last year. This song introduced me to yuro mashima, who has released some incredibly good songs in the year (i'm a big fan of the song about brushing your teeth) フランスパンのうた (cover) - world elec. Decided against the inclusion of this song on the top ten over the fact its A) A cover and B) Of an old song at that, regardless, it's really good to hear both OG Teto and New Teto together in a song and making both of them sound good, it also includes a MIDI kazoo solo 少女レイ (remix) - Haru-Ichiban The reason for not including this one in the top ten is due to it being a remix of an already popular vocaloid song, however I feel like it bears to mention how outstanding Haru-Ichiban’s remix is. This song just tickles my brain in the right way and uses the basis of the original to create its own feel サカサカバンバンバスピスピス - Yakomochi The first of three、 absolutely different songs that Yakomochi has become known for. I love the simple silliness this song has an continues to shine on the future works that Yakomochi has made since then 10. TEN: モミアゲヲシャカアゲヲ - Nu^16 Like one of the top comments of the video mentions (by the aptly named @mnmnmmnmmmmmm), the price Nu^16 pays for being a prodigious composer, lyricist and artist/painter is that they can only make joke-y silly songs, despite this and honestly adding to it, the fact that these songs are very funny but still legit good songs really makes it click for me 9. NINE: おどロボ - Umicha The fact that Umicha has only really made three songs in their career (the other two being also amazing), goes to show that some amazing producers have shown up in recent years and that they’ll hopefully continue to make amazing music for the years to come (and as will be shown later, Umicha isn't the only producer with three amazing songs under their belt as their first three) 8. EIGHT:

怪電話 - r-906 This song made me learn about ROSE and POPY, the bandori voice synths, and I think that alone should make this song rank highly. r-906 is a really good producer and they’ve been around for a bit but this song just hits an absolute home run for me with the way its paced and the phone samples 7. SEVEN: 機械少女と三十路OL - Ro2noki Can a song cement a ship in your brain? It can for me! Ro2noki’s awesome song rewired my brain in such a way that Rei and Teto are almost inseparable and are dating, it does help that both their twitter accounts have leaned into it heavily, along with the heaps and heaps of wonderful art of them together 6. SIX: オーバーライド - Yoshida Yasei This became a pretty popular niconico MAD song for some reason, but honestly I get it, everyone enjoys a high energy and tempo song with a really good looking but simple video. Something about this song just works for me wonderfully and it really makes the New Teto sound incredibly nice 5. FIVE:

太陽ポカポカで草 - namigroove Namigroove was a surprise to me this year, they made a bunch of really good songs and my favorite is the one song that sounds like a Vulfpeck song. They're also one of the realest producers out there, their taste in music is insane and so is their choice of voice synths 4. FOUR: 焦燥 - kinoue64 Sometimes certain songs awaken you to understanding that there is so many different things voice synths can do and this is for sure one of them. The Miku shoegaze song is a crazy good song and so is the rest of the album it comes from, if you have the chance do listen to it 3. THREE:

ホントノ - Haraguchi Sasuke It's rare that a commercial producer goes into vocaloid (at least in my experience, it's usually the reverse that happens), but Sasuke has not only knocked it out of the park with the three or so songs he’s made using vocaloid, it only looks like he’s getting started and I look forward to all new songs he’ll make 2. TWO:

ちっちゃな私 - Masarada New Teto release was bound to create new producers for her but no one could’ve anticipated that one would show up and deliver amazing and very distinct songs out of nowhere. Masarada is a producer that I believe will become a household name with some of the greatest vocaloid producers to ever do it if they manage to continue releasing the high quality and chock full of personality songs they’ve managed to release so far, with the song i'm choosing as my top two song of the year being my favorite of them 1. ONE:

KEEP YOUR HEADACHES - Ryo Iogi Teto Hyperpop!!! Not only did this song basically put me on to enjoying hyperpop more but also became one of my most listened to songs of the year period. I hope the Ryo Iogi will eventually make more hyperpop style songs using voice synths (although I will say their grungy Chis-A song is also awesome), because they clearly have a talent for making the style of music and how to blend it with the intricacies of working voice synths

28MAY2023

体調を崩して、身体を戻すのに一苦労する。学生時代、客室乗務員になりたかったのだけど、こんな身体じゃ持たなかったはずなので神様はよく見ているってことだ。

ここ数日で使ったクレジットカードの明細やレシートを見て、やっぱりわたしはお金を使う行為が得意だと思った。よくインスタグラムでは節約女子が「物欲を抑えるために、欲しいと思ったら一旦ほしいものリストに書き留めてあとでもう一回考えます！大体あとで見返すと本当に欲しい物は少しだけです！」といった内容のことを書いているのを読んで実践した場合、わたしはほしいものリストに書いたものを全部手に入れる天才なのだ。何も参考にならない。ここまでくると買い物依存症なのかと自分自身を疑ってしまう。

体内時計が狂ってしまって、夜になっても眠れず、パジャマに着替えても眠れず、ホットミルクを飲んでも眠れず、Netflix でマイリストに入れていた韓国ドラマを5話くらい見たらやっと眠くなってきて寝た。これが朝の 6:00。

ちなみに見ていたのは『青春の記録』というドラマ。

韓国ドラマをいくつか見て学んだことは IMF 危機とか、就職活動が難しいとか、そういう時代背景のこともあるけど、各作品で取り上げられる登場人物たちのお仕事が字幕翻訳家やヘアメイクアップアーティスト、出版社、美術館のキュレーターなど文化的要素がとても多いことである。わたしが日本のドラマとは大きく違うなと感覚的に感じるところだ。薄っぺらい言葉で書いてしまうと「文化的なお仕事」をていねいに書けるか書けないかが違うのではないかと思う。完全に単なる主観でしかない��れど。

Twitter の裏アカウントに「眠れない」とツイートしたら親友がホットアイマスクをおすすめしてくれた。たしかに。持っていたのになぜ思いつかなかったのだろう。

月曜日は雨だけど、適度に歩いて身体を動かそうと思う。やっぱり身体もある程度疲れていないと眠くならないだろうし。

そろそろ梅雨入りかしら。都会のアスファルトにきれいな青を差し色してくれる紫陽花がたくさん見れる季節。

Meningococcal meningitis

Description:

Maybe you will meet him under the rotten spring sun. He talks and laughs happily, is kind and enthusiastic, making you ignore the scar on his forehead without knowing it.

[I am doing a small experiment, are you interested in helping? ] You who promised him, the last thing you remember is the name on the laboratory

Description (Traditional Chinese):

你成許會在爛的春陽下與他相遇 他談笑風生，親切而熱情，讓你不和不覺中忽略了他額上的傷疤 【我正在做個小實驗，你有興趣幫忙嗎？】 答應了他的你，最後記得的是實驗室上掛著的名字

Character: Epidemic Cerebrospinal Meningitis

Release: September 2021

Artist: Luo Peishan Quan Lo

Nickname: Epidemic Meningitis

Gender: Male

Height: 184cm

Weight: 68kg

Birthdate: 10/23 (Libra)

Personality: With a gentle appearance to cover up the madness of the experiment in his heart, only people with high vigilance can see that something is wrong in his mind. A human scientist who loves experiments to the point of obsession, specializing in brain mechanisms, and also has a lot of research in hematology. He likes to have one-on-one talks with the subjects before the human experiment begins, hoping to get to know them better. Contrary to the somewhat crazy appearance, he unexpectedly got along well with children, but it seems that some subjects never came out after entering his laboratory. . . .

Likes: All human beings, sunny spring, exercis, puzzle games of the brain

Dislikes: Rainy seasons, vaccines, antibiotics

More J-Pop :P

Yep, doing this again. I've discovered so many more songs that I wanna share.

Yorushika/ヨルシカ

Yorushika has become my favourite band in the past few... months? idk when my last post was. The vocalist is awesome and I really love their guitar and piano instrumentals.

Parade/パレード - I discovered this song yesterday so I haven't had the time to look into the lyrics yet. Will update when I do. I really love the instrumentals though. The violin is just awesome, and like in every other song, the piano is perfection. This is from the album That's Why I Gave Up On Music though, so it's sure to have deep lyrics, since the whole album is telling a story

Algernon/アルジャーノン - The music video doesn't have translations :(, so I didn't look into the meaning of this song either, but the music video looks awesome.

The next few songs I don't have too much to remark upon. (yet)

Say It./ヨルシカ- Okay I haven't looked into the meaning to most of these lmao. Gotta get on that. Has great guitars though.

Ghost In A Flower/花に亡霊- Awesome piano and guitar.

Setting Sun/斜陽

Spring Thief/春泥棒

That's Why I Gave Up On Music/だから僕は音楽を辞めた- Title track from the album. The album tells a story (that I haven't read yet) that concludes with this track. I especially love the piano-guitar duet after the opening verse, it's just, wow. Suis (the vocalist) did an exceptional job on this track, and lyrics are also just so good. The music video is just too good and you should read the lyrics so I'm dropping the youtube link for this one.

Also an English translated version by Rachie because she did a great job on it.

Minami/美波

Another artist I've come to adore very recently.

DROP - Just sounds really good. Will update if I look into meanings later, goes for every song I don't remark upon here.

Waiting For Rain/アメヲマツ- Words cannot express how much I love this song. One thing I really love about Minami is how expressive their voice is, and that is exemplified in this song. She explained that she did intend for this song to be conveyed through feelings and emotions more than words, and I think she succeeded in that. The lyrics are also awesome, the music video is awesome, the instrumentals are eargasmic. Music video for english translation and awesome animation.

Crying For Rain/カワキヲアメク- The first song I heard by Minami. It also does the same, being very expressive. It's the opening for an anime called uh Domestic Girlfriend. Not gonna be watching it purely for how weird the name itself is, but the song is awesome. As far as I can tell, no relation with Waiting for Rain.

Lilac/ライラック- The depressed gamer in me is in love the lyrics of this song, and the music lover in me loves the instrumentals. Seriously, just read these lyrics.

"Life's rough, Life's tough, It would be great if life could be as simple as a video game. There are even futures that I would like to bet on by pressing the A/B buttons."

yikes that's ugly, not doing that again.

"Life's rough, Life's tough, Genuinely, staying alive would be easier if life's a video gameThen a life where you can change the course of your future using A,B keys would exist."

The instrumentals are deceptively happy.

Monogatari series

It's an anime series I've heard good things about but haven't watched yet. Looks pretty long, but the songs are tantalizing. These songs are uh very cutesy and upbeat in a way I can't explain why I like it.

Chainsaw Man

One of my favourite anime as you already know. The S1 of the anime has 12 episodes, and it also has 12 ending songs. Anime usually have 1 for each season but they went above and beyond. I dislike metal, but I do like insanity so, despite that, I still love most of the tracks here for the sheer insanity. But Time Left by ZUTOMAYO and Chainsaw Blood are still my favourites tho. And can't forget KICK BACK, it's such a banger OP and the opening animatic itself is awesome with its foreshadowing and cinematic references. You can read more about what I think of KICK BACK at Alia's Corner.

Heh I just realised how ridiculous Chainsaw Man looks with chainsaws sprouting out of his hands and head and... a formal shirt and pants and a tie.

Song from Your Lie In April. Just sounds really good.

A jem from Attack On Titan that I somehow overlooked.

I hit the audio limit, damn you Tumblr, why you gotta make this so hard?

Anyways, you can sort by newest and see my newer favourites. Some particular standouts are 色彩/Color by yama, 三時のキス/idfk by Rokudenashi/ロクデナシ, again by YUI, 君のことじゃないよ by ZUTOMAYO, NIGHT DANCER by imase, Massarana Daichi by Higuchi Ai, from the same album as Akuma No Ko, the ED song for AoT Final Season Part 1, the two Natori songs, Overdose especially, Asphyxia, Kyouran Hey Kids!! by THE ORAL CIGARETTES and No Title by Reol.

Watching Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood now, you can read what I think of it in my page, and also updated my AoT thoughts.

Whilst sharing all of our tears and joys, we've left our small, steady footsteps on our way here As we look up at the bright sun shining in the cloudless sky, we'll turn the page and continue on

Our wish draws an arc as it flies on the wind, and we'll prove that it'll surely find its destination through this endless sky

I'll be there for you, you, you; linking my feelings with you, with you It's because we're not alone that we can even grasp miracles I'll be there for you, you, you; let's keep living in this same youth Just the way you are

Wow Wow Wow… Let's embrace our bonds Wow Wow Wow… and continue on forever, towards the future…

Those days where we cheered each other on until our voices grew hoarse will become our confidence to grow stronger We'll continue to search for our answers as we follow our hand-drawn map towards our destination without ever stopping

Look, the gears of fate are turning towards the scenery we saw together, towards the future awoken by our resounding voices through this endless sky

I'll be there for you, you, you; linking my wishes with you, with you With our boundless passion, we'll reach for shining glory I'll be there for you, you, you; let's keep running through the light towards our promised destination

These vivid days will shine on us for countless years to come We are dreaming forever, we are smiling forever That's right, we'll entrust our wishes to you and pass on our dreams as the seasons come and go…

I'll be there for you, you, you; arcing across the sky, you, you I'll be there for you, you, you; linking my feelings with you, with you It's because we're not alone that we can even grasp miracles I'll be there for you, you, you; let's keep living in this same youth Just the way you are

Wow Wow Wow… Our entwined feelings Wow Wow Wow… will continue on forever

Wow Wow Wow… Let's embrace our bonds (and continue on forever) towards the future…

I’ll be there for you, You You 願い繋ぐ You With you 果てなき情熱よ　輝ける栄光へ I’ll be there for you, You You 共に青春(ひかり)の中を走る 約束の場所へ
