Cool songs that will be a hit at karaoke (41–50)
Together forever!Kitanitatsuya
Singer-songwriter Tatsuya Kitani, who enjoys overwhelming support from young listeners.
While he has many catchy songs, he also has some technically demanding ones.
Among them, the one I especially recommend is Zuutto Issho! This piece requires a wide vocal range from mid1 A# to high A, with quite dramatic pitch movement up and down.
That alone makes it difficult, but it also has few breathing points and many rapid-fire phrases, so in addition to pitch control, strong lung capacity is needed.
It’s a song that demands comprehensive vocal ability, so definitely give it a try.
Cool songs that will be a hit at karaoke (51–60)
Ooochie KoochieOoochie Koochie
Ooochie Koochie is a unit formed by Koji Kikkawa and Tamio Okuda.
Their teaming up—two rock musicians who defined an era—drew major attention when they first formed.
Among their songs, the one I especially recommend for men with low voices is GOLD.
It’s not that the song has a particularly narrow range, but because the low register vocals are mixed to be quite loud, it’s a perfect track for bringing out the appeal of a deep voice.
to youMONGOL800
It’s one of the all-time greatest songs by Mongol800 that everyone in their 20s and 30s went crazy for.
The “Anata ni~” part in the chorus is something everyone can sing—and probably harmonize, too.
Even if you’re a bit tone-deaf, you can cover it with the vibe.
A top-notch song.
HANABIMr.Children
I think choosing a Mr.Children song at karaoke probably takes a lot of courage for men.
The songs are quite difficult to sing, the lyrics carry strong messages, and they’re very well-known, so there’s this fixed notion that “there’s no way you can pick this song and miss the mark.”
TEKKEN IISEX MACHINEGUNS
From the intro, you can sense something extraordinary.
The genre is metal, but you can also enjoy the lyrics at karaoke.
With Sex Machineguns’ humor-filled, amusing lyrics and cool guitar riffs and beats, it’s a track that gets you pumped while staying fun.
CHE.R.RYYUI
YUI has temporarily put her solo activities on hold.
Nevertheless, the overwhelming support from women for “CHE.R.RY” shows no signs of fading.
This song, which straightforwardly sings about a girl’s cute feelings of being in love, always gets the crowd going at karaoke.
flying boatKing Gnu
This song was written specifically for an ANA commercial.
Its lyrics, which reject society’s prescribed “rightness” and conventional wisdom, are infused with a strong will to spread your own wings and soar freely into the future—like an anthem for taking a bold first step.
Released by King Gnu in August 2019, the track reached No.
3 on both the Oricon and Billboard Japan charts and is a song that gives a push to anyone facing a challenge.
If you can casually pull off this piece at karaoke—with its distinctive rhythm and interweaving high notes—you’ll definitely earn some serious respect.
