Lend me your hands! One more time!Shimoda Misaki
This is a recommended track for anyone who wants to liven up a drinking party.
Delivered by Misaki Shimoda, this energetic 4-minute-32-second song features a brisk 160 BPM tempo in the key of C minor.
It was released in July 2013 and was also included on a DVD+CD in December of the same year.
The lyrics depict scenes of enjoying drinks and those moments when people come together and get excited, putting listeners in a fun mood.
Play it at a drinking party or any gathering, and it’s sure to instantly amp up the atmosphere! Combined with Shimoda’s uniquely expressive vocals, it’s a song everyone can enjoy together.
New Treasure IslandSakanakushon
Shin Takarajima, Sakanaction’s super catchy dance tune released in 2015.
It somehow feels a bit nostalgic yet fresh at the same time.
On social media, mash-up joke videos with other clips have also become a hot topic, and it’s fun that Ichiro Yamaguchi, the vocalist himself, sometimes picks them up and comments on them.
And of course, beyond the music itself, a big part of the song’s appeal is the music video, which pays homage to the classic comedy show The Drifters’ All-Star Family Get-Together.
It’s a reliable crowd-pleaser that’s guaranteed to hype things up when you sing it while doing the Drifters dance.
Effeminate; overly sentimental; being clingy/whiny (context-dependent)Gōruden Bonbā
If you’re looking for a guaranteed crowd-pleaser for karaoke, I recommend “Memeshikute” by Golden Bomber! This song was a huge hit in 2009 and is often performed on TV shows, so many people have probably heard it.
The chorus has simple hand choreography and parts where you jump up and down, making it perfect for getting into the rhythm and amping up the energy.
loveHoshino Gen
At karaoke, it’s fine to steadily trade songs by singing your personal favorites, but since this is a drinking-party karaoke, you want tracks everyone can get excited about.
In times like that, this song is perfect: “Koi” by Gen Hoshino, released in 2016 and a huge hit.
It was the theme song for the drama “We Married as a Job” (Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu), and the so-called “Koi Dance” performed in the ending drew attention and became popular.
It’s a song that’s been danced to at many events like school festivals and weddings, so lots of people can dance to it—that’s one of the great things about this track!
poopMoriyama Naotaro
Naotaro Moriyama’s song “Unko” has a shocking title, but it’s a simple, down-to-earth tune.
With his gentle voice and the sound of an acoustic guitar, he sings it with a refreshing touch.
If you sing it at karaoke, it’ll be a crowd-pleaser aiming for laughs.
The song itself is very short, so you can sing a single phrase, get a big laugh, and then pass the baton to the next song.
It’s a fun track with an amusing gap between the soft intro and the title.
Izakaya (feat. Tokkuri)SKRYU
Delivered by SKRYU, this track is a hip-hop song that captures upbeat vibes and good times at an izakaya.
Featured on the album “Transform -Charcoal side-,” it was released in July 2023.
Boosted by its popularity on TikTok, it reached No.
4 on Billboard JAPAN’s TikTok Weekly Top 20.
The lyrics portray fueling up at an izakaya before a live show and soaking in the lively atmosphere.
It’s a perfect pick for anyone looking to hype up a drinking party.
Blending SKRYU’s signature humor with Noconoco’s aggressive beat, this addictive tune is one you’ll definitely want to enjoy together.
