For Men in Their 40s: Easy-to-Sing Karaoke Tracks and Guaranteed Crowd-Pleasers (81–90)

POISONSorimachi Takashi

Maverick Teacher GTO Theme Song – POISON (Takashi Sorimachi)
POISONSorimachi Takashi

The theme song of the smash-hit drama GTO starring Takashi Sorimachi.

The lyrics, written by Sorimachi himself, are so impactful that even some younger people who don’t know the original song still recognize the chorus.

His voice has a lower timbre, and the melody sits in a low key, so try tackling it with a cool, deep delivery.

Rainy BlueTokunaga Hideaki

This is Hideaki Tokunaga’s debut single, released in 1986.

With his distinctive husky timbre and sweet, slightly higher register, he sings of lingering feelings for a woman he parted with.

As the title suggests, the rain deepens the sense of loneliness, poignancy, and sorrow.

As one of Tokunaga’s signature songs, it has been covered by many artists and remains a popular choice for karaoke.

TemptationGLAY

This song topped the Oricon annual singles chart in 1998 and achieved million-seller status.

It’s a blast to sing while striking cool poses and playing air guitar.

If possible, go all-in on the costume and makeup to fully become GLAY—it’ll hype things up even more.

Try singing it stylishly at karaoke.

Love will winKAN

This is a signature song by a renowned singer-songwriter who was a massive hit in the early ’90s.

The simple, straightforward title lands right at the end of the chorus with an unforgettable punch—hear it once and it sticks.

The lyrics are so direct they’re almost hard to say out loud, but don’t be shy—sing it proudly and with confidence!

[Official] Noriyuki Makihara “Winter Begins” (Music Video) [4th Single] (1991) / Fuyu ga Hajimaru yo
Winter is starting.Makihara Noriyuki

This is a classic winter song by Noriyuki Makihara, a renowned singer-songwriter who has remained at the forefront of the music scene.

It beautifully captures the scenes of lovers welcoming winter with superb lyrics and a nostalgic melody.

Many younger listeners have probably heard the chorus, too.

It’s easy and satisfying to sing, so why not try it not only at karaoke with friends in their 40s, but also at your company’s year-end party?

In addition to mainstream rock, Macaroni Enpitsu is a band with a wide musical range from psychedelic to hard rock.

For men who like Japanese rock, you could say they’re an extremely popular band.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is Itsuka Nani mo Nai Sekai de.

While the vocal range sits comfortably in mid1A to hiA, the song still provides a solid point to get hyped; in the chorus, you can let out a big, near-shouted voice.

Since the scat-like section at the end of the chorus starts with a shout, it’s good to aim for a slightly more ferocious singing style.

Get WildTM NETWORK

This is TM NETWORK’s 10th single overall, released in April 1987.

It was produced with the intention of being used as the ending theme for the anime City Hunter, which is why it was crafted into a very fast-paced, driving track.

In addition to having a very singable tempo, the vocal melody stays within a range that’s relatively easy for most people to sing, which is a key feature.

The melody is also highly impactful and easy to remember, making it a great choice to sing casually at karaoke.

When you sing it, just be sure to lock into the rhythm and deliver it powerfully, like in the original recording!
