[2026] Songs sung by comedians: From the latest tracks to nostalgic classics (91–100)
Don’t give up ~Awakening~ainisuta
It’s hard to tell whether it’s a song or a bit, but Sanshirō’s Ainista provokes a kind of surreal laughter.
Ainista is a fictional unit that appeared on the TV show “Ariyoshi no Kabe.” Their piece “Don’t give up ~Awakening~,” which feels part song-gag, part translation, part commentary, features the two dressed like deities, with Komiya holding a guitar and singing.
It’s really fun to see all kinds of new styles showcased as a fresh form of comedy, different from traditional sketches or manzai.
Love fitsurutorazu
Ultras is a three-piece band born from JaruJaru’s sketch “A Guy Influenced by Ulfuls.” Their first album, “Dassa!,” which drew attention for including a track produced by Ulfuls’ Tortoise Matsumoto, also features the song “Ai ga Au.” The contrast between the acoustic guitar–only ensemble and its lyrical melody is wonderfully pleasant.
While it includes phrases that are quintessentially JaruJaru, the heartwarming lyrics are moving enough to make you forget it’s a song by comedians.
It’s a catchy number you’ll want to check out—including the alternate versions.
Friend’s Songharisenbon
This is a song released in March 2007 by Harisenbon, a duo popular in the comedy world.
Set to a bright, poppy melody, the lyrics center on themes of friendship and bonds with companions.
It features phrases about clapping hands and dancing in a circle, giving listeners a sense of familiarity.
The track was used as the theme song for the film “Chibi Kero: The Secret of the Kero Ball!?” and was released as a CD-and-DVD set.
The DVD also includes choreography lesson footage.
With Harisenbon’s signature comedic and fun vibe, the song exudes positivity about meeting new friends and adapting to changing environments.
It’s a tune likely to be loved by a wide range of listeners, from children to adults.
The Day Love Was BornOishi Madoka · Dandy Sakano
Dandy Sakano, who became a huge hit with gags like “Get’s!” and “Niooka!”, and Madoka Oishi, the original ‘entertainment idol,’ have earnestly covered and remade the nostalgic classic ‘Ai ga Umareta Hi’ without any comedy.
For those in their 50s and up, the title likely brings to mind the original duet by Miwako Fujitani and Yoshiaki Ouchi.
This version by Dandy and Oishi is every bit as sultry as the original, and above all, Dandy’s singing voice is exceptionally pleasing.
It’s a highly recommended track that I hope many more people will listen to.
The Burdock SongKojima Yoshio
Isn’t a song themed around burdock root interesting all by itself? It’s a piece by Yoshio Kojima, and if you listen closely, it even packs in nutrition facts and history—I’m genuinely impressed.
Released in July 2016, this track is included on the album Yoshio no Uta.
While it’s aimed at children, adults might find themselves humming along too.
It seems great for food education as well.
It’s such an addictive tune that every time you see burdock, you’ll want to sing, “Go! Go! Go!”
My beloved little demonHoshino Kazunari
Did you know that Hoshino Disco from the comedy duo “Parpar,” managed by Maseki Geinosha, has made his debut as a singer under the name Kazunari Hoshino? His clear, three-octave voice has even earned praise from Ariyoshi.
The song “My Beloved Little Devil” is a poignant breakup ballad about still having feelings for the girlfriend who dumped him—a lingering attachment to a love that’s over.
The drama-style music video is also a must-see.
Keep an eye on Hoshino’s beautiful singing voice, which shows a different side from his sketch comedy persona!
in limbo / hanging in the air / unresolvedsoshina
When it comes to Soshina from Shimofuri Myojo, he’s known not only as a comedian but also for his work as a musician.
His style is diverse—he’s even tried his hand as a Vocaloid producer—but “Chuburarin” is a straight-up rock band-style track, with Soshina on vocals and guitar.
The rough guitar sound, urgent rhythm, spit-out lyrics, and distinctive vocal tone drew a lot of attention.
With a very simple chord progression and song structure, the melody is easy to remember, and if you’re feeling stressed, belting this song out at full volume might be a great way to blow off steam.
