Glass BoyKinKi Kids
This was KinKi Kids’ debut single, released in July 1997.
The composer was Tatsuro Yamashita.
It was a million-seller at the time and was chosen as the entrance march for the 70th National High School Baseball Invitational Tournament in the year following its release (1998).
As such a massive hit, most people in their 40s as of 2023, when this article is being written, have probably heard it at least once.
The melody, tinged with a wistful, slightly sentimental feel, is truly memorable.
There aren’t any particularly challenging parts to sing throughout the song, so it’s a recommended karaoke pick for anyone.
Enjoy it with its lively rhythm.
1000 ViolinsTHE BLUE HEARTS
Recut from the 6th album “STICK OUT,” the 15th single “1000 no Violin” had its orchestral version featured in 2006—13 years after its original release—as the CM song for Asahi Soft Drinks’ “WONDA 100-nen Black.” The lyrics, which evoke the pure feelings of one’s boyhood, stir the heart alongside a driving ensemble.
Because many of the melodies repeat the same pitch, it’s hard to go off-key, and the vocal range isn’t very wide, making it easy to sing at karaoke.
The key is also low, so it’s a recommended rock tune even for those who aren’t very confident in their singing.
Bon-giri Love SongSazan Ōrusutāzu
This is the fourth song released exclusively as a digital single by Southern All Stars, released in July 2023.
It’s one of their signature summer tunes, featuring a slightly bouncy, funky beat that really stands out! For many men in their 40s as of 2023, the phrase “summer means Southern!!” probably rings true.
The vocal melody doesn’t cover a very wide range, and the tune itself is easy to sing along to casually, so even those who don’t often have chances to sing or who feel they’re not good at singing should find it very singable.
The key to making it sound good is to avoid letting the rhythm of your singing become flat.
HouyouKawaharada Shinichi
This is the sixth single overall by singer and actor Shinichi Kawaharada, released in November 2021.
As for Kawaharada, who performs this song—actually, this track was produced by me.
I handled the composition, arrangement, keyboard performance, and direction during recording.
In creating it, I focused on crafting a melody that’s easy to sing, since the song is meant first and foremost for Kawaharada, whose main profession is acting.
I believe it will be easy to sing even for those who aren’t confident in their singing.
Try to keep a gentle touch throughout the entire song!
The Beatles I saw were inside the TV.Saitō Kazuyoshi
It’s a message song that sings, with both irony and sincerity, about one’s feelings toward the era they live in—an honest, true-to-life piece.
“The Beatles I Saw Were on TV” is the debut single, released in 1993.
After appearing on the music audition program “Saturday My Family’s TV: Yuji Miyake’s Tenka Gomen ne!”, Saito won the right to make a major-label debut, and this was the track that came out of it.
The song carries a bittersweet mood, yet somehow leaves you feeling refreshingly clear at the end.
It’s a male-vocal number, but I think it’s easy for women to sing as well.
I like your face.Saitō Kazuyoshi
I think quite a few people have had the experience of thinking, “I can’t put it into words, but I just really like this person.” The third single, ‘Kimi no Kao ga Suki da,’ released in 1994, was featured in heavy rotation on radio stations at the time and became a hot topic.
Because the lyrics are so straightforward and unadorned—single-minded, even—you can’t help but trust that the singer really means it.
Maybe being this direct actually feels more human and appealing.
How about trying it at karaoke with your partner?
The White LoversKuwata Keisuke
As a solo artist, Keisuke Kuwata’s seventh single overall, released in October 2001.
It was used as the song for Coca-Cola’s “No Reason” campaign commercials, in which Kuwata himself appeared, as well as for UNIQLO’s “LifeWear/HEATTECH: Winter Is the Time to Go Outside” commercials.
You could truly call this a staple of late-’90s to early-2000s J-pop.
Many songs from that era are very easy to sing, and this ballad is no exception—it’s something anyone can casually sing and enjoy.
It might even be fun to sing it while doing a Kuwata-style impression, don’t you think?
