[2026] Songs You’ll Want to Sing at Karaoke! A Collection of Easy-to-Sing Johnny’s Songs (51–60)
The truthKamenashi Kazuya
It’s a song released in August 2025, and amazingly, it’s their first solo track in about two years! Listening to it, the range centers around low-mid to high-mid, so it might feel a bit high for those not used to higher notes.
That said, the melody is simple with no particularly difficult parts, and the chorus repeats the same phrase, making it very easy to remember.
For singing style: deliver the verse (A section) in a spoken, unforced way without belting; in the pre-chorus (B section), there’s a spot that rises to D4—accenting that part will let the notes come out nicely! In the chorus, there’s a small leap from C4 to A4—hit that confidently as an accent! The range should be relatively comfortable for the average male singer, and with its rock feel, it should be really satisfying to sing.
It’s a passionate theme, so definitely give it a try!
Koisuru Hikarinaniwa danshi
A fresh rock number that vividly captures the sparkle of a moment in love.
It’s packed with youthful scenes everyone can relate to—your heart racing when your eyes meet, the ache of passing by each other, and the frustration of feelings you can’t put into words.
Released in August 2024, the song was chosen as the theme for the film “Koi wo Shiranai Bokutachi wa” (We Who Don’t Know Love), starring Ryusei Onishi of Naniwa Danshi.
It’s the perfect track for those moments when your feelings for someone are growing or when you need the courage to confess.
It’s love.V6
A V6 classic that evokes nostalgia while still retaining a timeless charm.
Composed by Koji Tamaki, this song sings about loneliness, the complexities of human relationships, and the importance of love.
Released in January 1997 and included on the album “NATURE RHYTHM,” it has long been beloved as one of V6’s signature tracks.
The connection born from their collaboration on the drama “Coach” led to the creation of this masterpiece.
For karaoke, the 2001 version—where every member has a solo part—is recommended.
Its warm lyrics and approachable melody are likely to resonate with listeners of all ages.
VenusTakkī & Tsubasa
This song features distinctive Latin rhythms and melodies, themed around a passionate romance.
Released in January 2006, it reached No.
1 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart and stayed on the charts for 22 weeks—a true fan favorite.
It was also used as the CM song for Avex Marketing’s “mu-mo.” The repeated phrase in the chorus, “Atsuku Venus” (“Hot, Venus”), is memorable, and the lyrics evoke the flames of love.
It’s a great choice for karaoke to amp up the passionate mood, and its rhythmic vibe makes it fun to sing with plenty of energy.
Join us !naniwa danshi
One of the tracks included on the sixth single “I Wish,” “Join us!” Despite being a B-side, it has enjoyed exceptional popularity, even receiving a music video.
It features the refreshing, bright melodies that are a hallmark of Naniwa Danshi.
The vocal range is mid1 E to mid2 G#, which is fairly narrow for a Naniwa Danshi song, so it should be easy for men to sing.
However, the chorus contains prolonged mid-to-high phrases, so be sure to choose a key that doesn’t strain your throat or temples.
