Cool songs that will be a hit at karaoke (91–100)
GOD_iNumber_i
Number_i is a dance-vocal group supported by women across a wide range of ages.
Their sophisticated dance performances and hip-hop-centered sound are striking.
From their tracks, the one I especially recommend for men with lower voices is GOD_i.
It’s a hip-hop-focused piece, and the hook features very low vocals.
While the rap itself is slightly on the challenging side, the vocal range makes it relatively easy to perform—so consider adding it to your repertoire.
Lights Off (feat. Natori)TAKU INOUE
Lights Off (feat.
natori) is a collaboration between music producer TAKU INOUE, known for his sophisticated compositions, and singer-songwriter natori, who enjoys overwhelming support from young listeners.
Speaking of natori, his distinctive low voice with a hint of youthfulness leaves a strong impression.
That vocal quality is fully utilized in this track as well, with most of the song built around the mid-to-low register.
There are occasional higher phrases that appear as accents, sharpening the contrast with the lower tones and further enhancing the appeal of a low male voice.
Cool songs that will kill at karaoke (101–110)
Rhyme Wave Phrase DisciplesCHEHON
The classic song “Inbaku-to” has been loved for many years.
It’s a signature work by reggae deejay CHEHON, and when it was released, it became an explosive hit in Osaka, the holy land of Japanese reggae.
Nowadays, with CHEHON active in the MC battle scene, it’s also gaining support from younger generations.
Although the track has a pleasant flow, it doesn’t feature particularly difficult phrases.
The vocal range is very narrow, so most men should be able to sing it without trouble.
RPGSEKAI NO OWARI
Released in May 2013, “RPG” is a fantasy-themed song that portrays two people aiming for the sea, centered around the themes of “companionship,” “adventure,” and “bonds.” It also drew attention as the theme song for the film Crayon Shin-chan: Very Tasty! B-Class Gourmet Survival!!, which came out the same year.
With its strongly message-driven lyrics and an unforgettable pop melody, the track is perfect for karaoke.
Since it’s a song everyone can get hyped about together, if you find the high notes hard to hit, don’t try to power through alone—get everyone involved and enjoy the sense of unity as you sing!
SPECIALZKing Gnu
King Gnu is a rock band dominating the J-pop scene with their one-of-a-kind sound dubbed the Tokyo New Mixture Style.
Their seventh single, “SPECIALZ,” is a dark track chosen as the opening theme for season 2 of the TV anime Jujutsu Kaisen.
The intricate rhythmic melody is challenging, and because the band features twin vocals, the wide range between high and low keys can make it tough to sing solo.
Since the melody doesn’t involve large leaps, though, it’s a rock tune that should be easier to tackle as a duet with a friend.
Hometown of TearsBUMP OF CHICKEN
After seeing Hiro form a band and sing with his friends in the drama version of Koizora, I started a band with my friends too.
I was in my third year of junior high at the time, and my bandmates were boys from a different school.
We’re walking separate paths now, but I will never forget the memories I made with them.
So close like this…Crystal Kay
The image of an independent woman in her thirties singing with a refreshing, empowering vibe fits perfectly.
It’s a song sung by a woman in unrequited love, thinking of the person she loves.
You can even imagine a forbidden love, like one between people of the same sex, where no matter how much she feels, it never gets through.
I can’t even count how many times this song has made my heart flutter.
