I don’t want to let go.T-BOLAN
This is T-BOLAN’s second single, released as a single in December 1991, cut from their first album, “T-BOLAN.” A cover by Gackt was later released as well.
It’s a very beautiful ballad; the intro, led mainly by piano and vocals, might be a bit challenging for those who aren’t confident singers to tackle at karaoke.
However, if you can gently deliver that opening, then for the chorus and beyond, just sing with all the heat and passion—like the original—and it should come together quite nicely.
If your voice cracks on the high notes, it can ruin the whole performance, so if you plan to sing this at karaoke, it’s best to figure out a key that suits you beforehand.
Give it a try and showcase a passionate, emotion-filled vocal!
Runnerbakufū suranpu
The 12th single by Bakufu Slump, released in October 1988.
Even many years after its release, this song is still used as a cheer song in various sports scenes, starting with high school baseball, so I think it’s probably familiar even to people who aren’t interested in Bakufu Slump.
This track is my top recommendation for people who aren’t good at singing to try at karaoke! You don’t need any vocal skill at all—just ride the rhythm and power through to the end! For the high notes (though there aren’t really any that high), you don’t need to produce a clean, ringing tone; belt it out in a rough, shouted style to hype up the song!

Like tonight’s moonElefanto Kashimashi
“Koyoi no Tsuki no Yō ni” is the 15th single by the rock band Elephant Kashimashi, led by Hiroji Miyamoto, who exudes a unique aura.
Chosen as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “Tsuki no Kagayaku Yoru Dakara” starring Makiko Esumi, it became one of their signature hits, marking their first entry into the Oricon Top 10 for a single.
It’s a masterpiece with Miyamoto’s straightforward vocals that stir the heart.
The lyrics, which express the desire to shine someday like the moon, resonate especially with men in their 40s.
The melody has few dynamic shifts, making it easy to sing even for those who aren’t confident singers.
Sorrow like snowHamada Shogo
This was Shogo Hamada’s 14th single, released on November 21, 1981.
In 1992, it was used as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “Ai to Iu Na no Moto ni,” which led to it being re-released on February 1 of the same year as his 23rd single.
Hamada himself has a very husky and appealing voice, so in that sense, this might be one of the best choices for people who aren’t confident singers—especially those who struggle with high notes—to pick for karaoke.
The vocal melody is very simple and easy to sing, so even if you’re not good at singing, please give this one a try and enjoy it.
Don’t worry about the details; just focus on the vibe, and you’ll likely make it sound really good!
That paper airplane splits the cloudy sky19
People in their 40s might be a bit outside the target generation, but with these lyrics, they’ll surely recall their school days and relate.
As you’d expect from a duo that loves old, classic folk songs, it’s been skillfully arranged in a modern style.
It’s easy to remember and easy to sing!
You are in full color.Ohtaki Eiichi
Eiichi Ohtaki’s seventh single overall, released on March 21, 1981.
The song has been used in many commercials, including Rohto Pharmaceutical’s “New V Rohto” (1981), Kirin Beverage’s “Namacha” (2004), and Asahi Breweries’ “Asahi Slat” (2010), so many of you have probably heard it through those ads.
It features an extremely poppy, straightforward melody, with no musically or rhythmically difficult sections, so even those who aren’t confident singers should be able to handle it at karaoke with little trouble.
Just be careful not to let the bouncy rhythm get too heavy!
Super Syndromer10-FEET
This song was created as the opening theme for Cour 2 of the anime Uma Musume: Cinderella Gray, released in October 2025! It’s a high-octane rock track bursting with drive and soul, and even if you think you’re tone-deaf, you can power through it on sheer momentum and feeling! 10-FEET’s songs tend to sit in the mid range for male vocals, with almost no super-high notes, so it’s easy to sing even if high notes aren’t your strong suit.
Also, just listening might make you think for a moment, “Is this in English?” But when you look at the lyrics, you’ll see lots of difficult kanji and words.
It’s probably better to learn the lyrics and melody with both your eyes and ears before you sing.
Go ahead and let your emotions fly and sing your heart out!
