Renowned as a classic of the Showa era, “Ai Sansan” is a song by Hibari Misora released in 1986.

The composer Keisuke Ogura, who created numerous beloved hits, wrote both the lyrics and music, crafting it specifically for a commercial song for the seasoning brand Ajinomoto.

Released in 1995, the song “A Cruel Angel’s Thesis.” It’s widely known for becoming a hit as the theme song of the anime Evangelion, and it’s also a karaoke staple.

Not just as an anime song, it holds the top spot in the ranking of the most-sung karaoke songs of the Heisei era.

Beloved across genders and generations, it’s a track that gets everyone hyped in any setting.

Precisely because it’s such a classic, being able to sing it well makes it a really cool number.

PINK BLOODUtada Hikaru

A digital-only single by Hikaru Utada, released on June 2, 2021.

It was selected as the opening theme for the NHK Educational TV anime “To Your Eternity.” As you’d expect from a Hikaru Utada track—she’s renowned for her vocal prowess—this song also demands considerable singing skill and expressive ability if you attempt it at karaoke.

Right from the beginning, she surprises with a soft delivery using mixed voice.

Achieving high notes without sounding piercing is extremely difficult.

Despite the slow tempo, her phrasing avoids monotony, and her performance clearly conveys the off-beats down to the sixteenth-note subdivisions.

It’s a song I highly recommend to confident vocalists who want a challenge.

riveriri

iri – river (Music Video)
riveriri

iri is a female R&B singer-songwriter known for her stylish musicality.

Among Japanese female singers, she has a notably low vocal timbre.

When people think of songs with a wide vocal range, they might picture singers with high voices, but artists with lower voices often have significant dips as well, which naturally leads to a broader range.

This track is one such example: in addition to high phrases, it also features distinctly low phrases, making it a song with a quite wide range.

With strong Western pop influences, it’s also a piece that’s difficult to deliver in a straightforward, simple manner.

thorn; brambleAdo

Ado’s 20th digital-only single, released in May 2023.

It was chosen as the theme song for Fuji TV’s “Mezamashi TV.” With a chorus melody that jumps dramatically in pitch, Ado’s somewhat hysteric-sounding vocals, and densely packed, slightly rapid-fire lyrics, it’s quite a formidable challenge for the average person to sing at karaoke! Be sure to listen closely to Ado’s original performance to study the details of the song before giving it a try.

MEOWSTAYC

STAYC is a K-pop idol group with an adorable style and performances that leave a strong impression.

They’re a classic idol group known for their catchy musicality, and lately they’ve been rapidly gaining popularity in Japan as well.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is MEOW.

It may seem catchy and easy to sing, but it surprisingly has many high-pitched parts, and they come one after another.

On top of that, the mood changes drastically in the rap section, so a wide expressive range and solid fundamental vocal skills are required.

Letter ~To You at Fifteen~Anjura Aki

A signature song by Angela Aki.

It’s an innovative track that turns a letter exchange between my 15-year-old self and my present self directly into a song.

Angela Aki’s gentle voice really touches the heart.

I think it’s classified as a ballad, but since it has a bright feel, it should be fine to sing at karaoke! The key isn’t that high, so I’d say it’s an easy song to sing.
