Don’t Look Back in AngerOasis
That song—released in 1996 and now a staple among Western karaoke classics.
Its distinctive melody begins with a piano intro, layered with Noel Gallagher’s clear, resonant vocals that draw you right in.
The message of not looking back and moving forward is sure to strike a deep chord with men in their 40s as well.
So popular it’s often called the UK’s unofficial national anthem, it was also sung in remembrance after the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing.
It’s a tune you’ll find yourself humming in all kinds of moments—out drinking with friends or standing at a crossroads in life.
Don’t Look Back in AngerOasis
Don’t Look Back in Anger can be called not just Oasis’s signature song, but one of the great global rock anthems.
It’s a track that really hypes up the end of a karaoke session, so I think it feels even better if everyone sings along together on the chorus.
Radio Ga GaQueen
The song “Radio Ga Ga,” included on their 11th album The Works and also a worldwide hit single, features lyrics that liken the band to radio—then said to be in decline—conveying a strong determination that they’re far from finished.
With its simple melody, minimal inflection, and relaxed tempo, it’s easy to sing even for those who feel uneasy about Western pop.
The chorus is guaranteed to turn into a massive sing-along—a timeless number loved across generations.
Because I Love YouStevie B
It’s a song by Stevie B that was a big hit in 1990.
It’s what you’d call a one-hit wonder, and I’m not sure what Stevie B has been up to since, but the song was used in Japanese commercials, so I think many people know it.
It takes quite a bit of technique to sing at karaoke, but if you can belt it out, it’s the kind of song that will bring the house down and earn a big round of applause.

Yesterday Once MoreCarpenters
The song “Yesterday Once More” is extremely popular in Japan as well.
For many people, the Carpenters are synonymous with this track.
The key feature of this piece is, without a doubt, the chorus.
While it’s not insanely high, some people may find it a bit difficult to sing.
In many cases, those who struggle to hit the notes in the chorus tend to tilt their heads upward as they sing.
If you can’t reach higher notes and you look up, it actually makes it harder to produce sound.
Try to be mindful not to force your voice, and attempt to sing while keeping your head slightly tilted downward.
My SharonaThe Knack
Famous as the opening theme for “Ametalk,” this song is a work by The Knack, renowned as a one-hit wonder.
If you sing it at karaoke, everyone will recognize it, so if you hype up your companions, you’re sure to get a response.
Even younger people know it, so I think it’s an easy song to get the crowd going.
We Are the WorldUSA For Africa
A signature song of the ’80s, “We Are the World.” To put it plainly, it’s a piece created by gathering a lot of famous singers of the time, with Michael (Jackson), Lionel Richie, and Quincy Jones making the song.
It was the original track that brought together star artists for charity.
The melody is catchy and the tempo is on the slower side, so I think it’s easy to sing.
