I’ll call your name.SUPER BEAVER
A song by SUPER BEAVER known for its powerful rock sound and emotional lyrics.
It was released in July 2021 as the theme song for the film Tokyo Revengers.
Conveying a message about human connections and linking the past to the future, this work resonates deeply with listeners.
Characterized by an energetic yet richly emotive style, it strikes an exquisite balance between ballad and rock.
The first-press limited edition also includes footage from their 15th-anniversary live show, making it a must-see for fans.
For karaoke, it’s recommended both for getting pumped up with friends and for moments when you want to reflect on life.
mirrorFRUITS ZIPPER
Following CUTIE STREET, FRUITS ZIPPER is another popular group from ASOBISYSTEM.
They’re known for a classic idol style and have gained popularity with their catchy sound.
Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is “Kagami.” It’s a bright, slightly uptempo track, but the vocal range is on the narrower side, and the melody doesn’t require drastic jumps in pitch.
You can sing it just fine with basic vocal skills, so be sure to add it to your repertoire.
rendezvousshaitoopu
Dreaming of an impossible reunion with a lost lover, they break into a run through the rain.
It’s a song by Shytoop that evokes a bittersweet yet romantic scene.
Listening to it, the protagonist’s pain comes through so vividly that it’s hard to imagine anyone not having their own restless memories of love stirred up.
The lyrics, which capture everyday feelings of loss through distinctive metaphors, pair perfectly with vocalist So Sasaki’s sweet, languid voice.
Released in April 2023, the track resonated widely on social media and has surpassed 300 million total streams.
It was later included on the album “Hors d’oeuvre.” If you sing it with feeling at karaoke while nursing the pain of a broken heart, your friends will likely be drawn into its poignant world before they know it.
Let’s kiss.shounen kizzu boui
Shonen Kids Boy is a band whose musicality evokes a sense of lightness.
Because they lean strongly toward J-pop, they don’t require the powerful vocals typical of rock.
Their song “Let’s Kiss,” as expected, is an easy piece to sing without using a forceful voice.
The bridge has the highest range, and the chorus drops to a lower range, resulting in a relatively narrow overall vocal span.
Since it’s a pop track, it’s better to express the pop feel through articulation rather than by emphasizing contrasts in vocal range.
EdisonSuiyōbi no Campanella
Speaking of Wednesday Campanella since Shiina took over as vocalist, isn’t “Edison” the track that leaves the strongest impression? In this song, the highest note is a hi C#—but that only appears in a few falsetto phrases.
If we look at just the chest voice, it spans from mid2 B to hi A, which is relatively narrow for a female vocal piece.
Thanks to its addictive catchiness and singability striking just the right balance, it’s a song many women will likely want to add to their repertoire.
catDISH//
This is a song by the dance-rock band DISH//, written and composed by singer-songwriter Aimyon.
The lyrics, which liken a dearly loved person who has left to a cat and portray a desperate longing that won’t fade despite wanting to forget, captivate listeners and won’t let go.
The track was included on the single “Bokutachi ga Yarimashita,” released in August 2017, and was later used as an insert song in the TV drama “Neko.” Warm yet powerful vocals combined with a beautiful melody make it a work so moving it could bring you to tears.
Although it’s a gentle ballad, it’s also a karaoke favorite, which is why it can create a sense of unity as everyone listens together.
Why not sing it with care and heartfelt emotion?

Bunny GirlAKASAKI
As one of the songs that went viral in 2024, many people will surely remember “Bunny Girl.” The talent of AKASAKI, who created this track at the young age of a high school student, is truly remarkable, and I’m sure there are people practicing it to add this masterpiece by a young artist to their karaoke repertoire.
The use of 7th chords that pops up throughout is stylish, and while it may sound understated at first, the melody line is actually very catchy and easy to remember, with no extreme high notes—so even those who struggle with high pitches should find it easy to sing.
Try approaching it at karaoke with a slightly cool, playfully suave vibe, and you’ll do great!
