ImagineJohn Lennon
An ultra-famous solo number by former Beatle John Lennon.
People in their 50s probably all know this song.
Sing it at karaoke when everyone’s starting to get a little tired; if you sing it while the energy is high, it might dampen the mood a bit.
Still, the melody is exceptionally easy to sing, so lean into the vibe and perform it with feeling!
Never Ending StoryLimahl
A solo song by Limahl, the vocalist of Kajagoogoo, a group often considered a one-hit wonder of the ’80s.
Many of you have probably seen the movie as well, right? This track, which for many leaves a stronger impression than the film itself, is highly melodic and easy to sing.
It’s a number I’d love to hear performed by someone with a great voice.
And for the chorus, make it a duet with a female singer!
I Just Called To Say I Love YouStevie Wonder
Stevie Wonder’s 1984 release that became a No.
1 hit ballad in the U.S.
It was originally said to have been intended for the Japanese folk duo Bread & Butter.
In Japan, it was also used in commercials and as a TV drama theme song.
It’s a highly melodic number that lingers in both the ear and the heart.
If you’re confident in your singing, put your cellphone to your ear and belt it out to get everyone hyped!
Hey JudeThe Beatles
A signature late-period Beatles number sung by Paul McCartney.
It’s said that Paul originally wrote the song to encourage John Lennon’s son, Julian.
Its running time of over seven minutes was unusually long for a pop song at the time.
At karaoke, let’s wrap things up by everyone belting out together at the very end: “na na na, na na na na…
Hey Jude♪”
My SharonaThe Knack
That ultra-famous number by The Knack that makes you go “Ah!” the moment the intro starts.
You’ve heard it in all kinds of places, right? People tend to think of The Knack as a one-hit wonder, but if you listen to their albums all the way through, they’re packed with hard-hitting yet poppy rock tracks with no filler.
What’s more, back in the day they were even hyped as “the second Beatles.” Perfect for a karaoke opener!
Can’t take my eyes off youBoys Town Gang
This number is famous in Japan under the title “Kimi no Hitomi ni Koishiteru.” The 1982 disco-style cover by Boys Town Gang is probably the most well-known version.
It’s extremely poppy and makes you want to start dancing.
The song also has a kind of “youthful days” vibe.
Let’s all dance and sing together!
