ALL I WANTHirate Yurina
Yurina Hirate’s hit song “ALL I WANT.” Among her recent releases, this track has been a particularly big success, so I imagine many people discovered her solo work through this song.
The melody has a slightly Heisei-era feel, and the rap-like vocal parts especially evoke artists like Kana Nishino and Miliyah Kato from the 2010s.
Because there are relatively few rests, the breathing can be a bit tricky, but the range is low and the melodic movement is gentle, making it a song that’s definitely easy to score highly on.
ColorfulAMUGIRI
Popular YouTubers, Komudotto.
They may not be as explosively popular as they once were, but they are still widely supported—especially by teenage girls—so many teenage boys are likely familiar with them as well.
Among the songs by AMUGIRI, a member of Komudotto, the one I particularly recommend for men with lower voices is “Colorful.” It has a narrow vocal range, and the vocal lines are gently constructed with little fluctuation.
If you adjust it to the appropriate key, even boys going through voice change should be able to sing it without issue, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
Don’t cheat on me.Koresawa
Among female listeners, especially those in their 20s, singer-songwriter Koresawa enjoys overwhelming support.
Although she has built a considerable career since her debut, her sweet-and-sour style remains intact, and in “Uwaki Shitara Akan de” (“Don’t You Dare Cheat”), she delivers a cute message that literally warns her boyfriend not to cheat.
The vocal line in this track features very few long tones and stays within a narrow range.
Since Koresawa’s songs often sit in higher registers, this is a must-listen for women seeking an easier Koresawa track to sing.
Last live showBurandē Senki
Brandy Senki is a girls’ band gaining popularity for their sophisticated musicality.
While their foundation is rock, it’s striking how they weave in a variety of genres, starting with Black music.
Their new track, Last Live, is unusually pure and orthodox rock for them, with no additives.
The riff has a cool edge, but the vocal line undulates gently and the range is relatively narrow, making it an easier song to sing than its impactful energy might suggest.
PredatorAKASAKI
Starting her career as a singer-songwriter at the young age of 16, AKASAKI skyrocketed to fame when her 2024 release “Bunny Girl” became a massive viral hit.
Her songs, woven from the fresh sensibility unique to a teenager, a mature perspective, and outstanding songwriting talent, are all remarkable—so much so that not only her peers but also working adults in their 20s and beyond will find themselves wanting to sing them at karaoke.
The same goes for “Predator,” released in May 2025: it’s a killer tune that showcases AKASAKI’s signature taste, deftly blending a J-pop vibe reminiscent of the early Heisei era with a stylish, 2020s feel.
Its catchy hook will have you humming along after just one listen.
When singing it at karaoke, try delivering it lightly without overexerting, but avoid sounding too flat—be mindful of your breathing spots and aim for a smooth, flowing performance!
Gimme GimmickRADWIMPS
The track “Gimi Gimmick,” included on “RADWIMPS 4: Okazu no Gohan,” is a quintessential gem of the late 2000s Japanese rock scene, marked by a strikingly arresting guitar riff in the intro.
Despite being a short song of about two and a half minutes, its overall technically intricate ensemble really stands out.
By Noda’s standards, the vocals aren’t particularly fast, and the range is fairly average and not especially wide, so try singing it while locking into its rhythmic groove.
freesiaMarushii
Marcy is a band that’s won popularity with moving lyrics and catchy melodies.
While they’re categorized as a rock band, they lean more toward J-pop, and they’re especially known for uplifting songs and ballads.
Among their tracks, the one I particularly recommend is Freesia.
It’s a positive song with a touch of strength, but the overall vocal range isn’t that wide, so anyone with an above-average range should be able to sing it comfortably in the original key.
