Karaoke Songs That Hype Up a Wedding After-Party (41–50)

Boys & GirlsHamasaki Ayumi

Ayumi Hamasaki / Boys & Girls (Short Ver.)
Boys & GirlsHamasaki Ayumi

Released in 1999 as her ninth single, this is one of her signature songs.

As a classic that defined its era, it’s so famous that you could say there’s hardly anyone who hasn’t heard it.

The high notes make it tough to sing at karaoke, but it’s guaranteed to liven up any atmosphere as background music, so it’s definitely a track worth remembering.

It’s not an outright upbeat song, but if you want to feel that live-show sense of unity, this is the one.

When the chorus hits, everyone lift your heads and raise your hands high.

You’ll naturally feel more positive.

With lyrics anyone can relate to, it’s sure to get everyone pumped up.

A signature classic by The High-Lows.

Some say this song was written about Hitoshi Matsumoto, and even people who aren’t into rock have probably heard it at least once.

I’ve even seen it performed at a wedding.

It’s simply a great song and fun to sing, so I highly recommend it for after-parties and the like.

This is the perfect song I recommend for women in their 20s.

It’s a track that lets you fully enjoy Miwa’s charm.

It might be a bit on the difficult side to sing, but if you ask everyone to clap along, it’ll definitely liven things up.

The key is to keep it bright, energetic, and cute!

Joyfulikimonogakari

Known for numerous tie-ins, Ikimono-gakari is a two-member band so familiar that no J-POP fan could fail to recognize their name.

Their 15th single Joyful, released as a double A-side with YELL, was written as the CM song for Ezaki Glico’s Pocky Chocolate.

The lyrics, which focus more on sound than meaning, have an irresistible appeal that lets people cut loose without overthinking—even at a wedding after-party.

It’s a high-energy uptempo tune that invites everyone to sing and dance together.

Lullaby of a Serrated HeartChekkāzu

The Checkers - “Lullaby of a Zigzag Heart”
Lullaby of a Serrated HeartChekkāzu

A song released in 1983 as their debut single.

The lyrics—especially the “lullaby” part—are memorable even for those who aren’t from that generation.

The instrumental break has a distinctly ’80s vibe that gives it a great flavor, so it’s a track I definitely want younger people to sing.

If you want everyone to dance together, this is the one song to play.

The “na-na-na-na” part has choreography that’s very easy even for beginners, so it’s recommended for everyone.

Some of the lyrics are a bit risqué, so it might be safer to avoid it in front of sensitive girls…
