Kocchinoken, a multi-creator whose household name skyrocketed with the 2024 hit song “Hai Yorokonde,” released a track in May 2025 titled “Sore mo Ii ne,” written specifically as the theme song for the children’s TV program The Wakey Show.

Because it was composed for kids, it’s extremely catchy and easy to remember, with a melody that even those who aren’t confident singers can enjoy singing.

For example, it would surely be a hit at family karaoke when a dad sings it for the children.

Of course, it’s also great for adults to sing together and feel like kids again!

Shota Araya is a singer-songwriter whose originality-rich musical style—mixing Black music with contemporary J-POP—has earned him widespread popularity.

While he drew attention as the former vocalist of a popular band, his activities have prioritized music over popularity, and he has produced several notable songs.

Among his tracks, the one I especially recommend for men with lower voices is Peanut Butter.

Although it has an R&B vibe, the vocal line is fairly steady and understated, and the song is arranged throughout in the low to low-mid range.

To you, beloved just as you areDISH//

It’s a warm, encouraging song from DISH// that embraces you just as you are.

Written by Takumi Kitamura, its gentle wish for you to “be yourself” slowly seeps into the listener’s heart.

Released in September 2021 as the song for Sunstar’s Ora2 me commercial, it became a hot topic as a refreshing track that perfectly matched the CM’s vibe.

If you sing it to someone important to tell them, “You’re wonderful just the way you are,” your feelings will surely come across, straight and true.

And receiving a message like this through a song—well, it’s the kind that would make any woman’s heart skip a beat.

This is a song that gives you a refreshing sense of elation, like racing down a road that stretches on forever.

It straightforwardly sings about the hidden brilliance in everyday life and the love for someone precious on the journey called life, delivering a powerful message and refreshingly pure expression of love that says any hardship can be lightly overcome as long as the two of us are together.

Written and composed by Fujii Kaze and released in May 2021, it also became widely known as the song for Honda’s VEZEL commercial.

Whether you want to honestly express your feelings to someone you love or liven up the mood at karaoke, the song’s positive energy might just give you that extra push.

When people think of Gen Hoshino, many likely imagine a somewhat lower vocal tone.

While his low register is certainly one of his charms, his falsetto is also a major draw.

His falsetto has more spread than that of typical vocalists and is notably pleasant to the ear.

In his new song “Star,” he uses a slightly lower falsetto with that expansive quality.

If you struggle with head voice, trying to imitate the falsetto in this track could be a good approach.

Marcy, whose lyrics gently capture everyday happiness and sadness and the emotional swings anyone can relate to, paired with melodies that resonate deeply, enjoys immense popularity especially among younger listeners.

Released in April 2025, “Freesia” is quintessentially their style—a medium-tempo ballad that poignantly sings of a woman lost in the depths of love.

Its melody line is very straightforward without dramatic leaps in pitch, making it an easy song to remember and sing, so it’s one you should definitely try at karaoke.

Alexandros is a rock band that has been active since the 2000s.

Since entering the 2020s, they’ve further refined their stylistic breadth, releasing hits that differ in taste each time.

Among their songs, the one I particularly recommend is “Coffee Float (feat.

hard life).” It’s a work that feels like a mix of indie rock and artcore, featuring fast-paced percussion, while the vocal line is relatively monotone and emphasizes the lower register.

It’s exceptionally easy to sing and highlights a deeper voice, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
