encoreHey! Say! JUMP
This song really brings out the best in the group! With lots of unison and harmonies, it’s fun both to sing and to listen to.
Idol groups don’t usually have a strong image of using harmonies, but lately everyone’s vocal skills have been improving, so instead of just unison, there are members who handle harmonies too, which makes it more enjoyable to listen to! The harmonies in this song mostly move a third above, so they’re easy to understand and sing.
Since it’s a group song, I think it would be fun to split the parts among your favorite members and sing it that way!
language of flowersA.B.C-Z
This is a heartwarming ballad by A.B.C-Z themed around the sweet and bittersweet language of flowers.
It conveys a delicate and beautiful message, entrusting feelings for a loved one to flowers.
Released in March 2016 as a bonus track on a DVD, the song was also chosen as the theme song for a program on Iwate Menkoi Television.
With a gentle melody line and a chorus in a comfortable vocal range, it’s easy to try singing at karaoke.
It’s a song you’ll want to sing with feelings for someone special or listen to in the springtime, and it can be recommended to listeners of all ages.
Eat some sushi!Shibugakitai
A unique song with a sushi theme that’s sure to get the crowd going at karaoke! Released in February 1986, this track emerged as a fresh challenge at a time when rap was just beginning to gain recognition in Japan.
It drew major media attention, including broadcasts on NHK’s “Minna no Uta” and a performance at the 36th NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen.
The lyrics feature a variety of sushi toppings and depict the fun atmosphere of dining at a sushi restaurant.
With its upbeat tempo and rhythmic, easy-to-remember lyrics, even karaoke beginners can enjoy it without worry.
It’s the perfect song for hyping up a group or playfully expressing Japan’s food culture.
Paradise GalaxyHikaru GENJI
Hikaru Genji was a legendary idol group that enjoyed explosive popularity, to the point of becoming a social phenomenon, until their disbandment in 1995.
Their third single, Paradise Ginga, written by Ryo Asuka (formerly of CHAGE and ASKA), was used as an insert song in the film A Mysterious Baby and became Hikaru Genji’s biggest hit.
Despite the song’s driving momentum, the melody is laid-back, and it isn’t particularly demanding in terms of key or vocal range, making it approachable even for those who aren’t confident singers.
It’s a classic from years past that we especially hope those of that generation will sing with an awareness of its sparkling atmosphere.
Wonderful Worldarashi
A song that continues to be loved as one of Arashi’s hidden gems.
It was included on their 2005 album “One” and is also known as the ending theme for the variety show “Mago Mago Arashi.” The lyrics, which portray the struggle and loneliness of everyday life while still striving toward the future, are deeply moving.
Although it was never released as a single, its beautiful and easy-to-remember melody has made it a popular choice for karaoke.
The vocal range isn’t too wide and it’s comfortable to sing, so why not pick it when you want a gentle, heartfelt moment with friends or when you want to convey the message of the song with care?

Beyond the Night SkySMAP
Despite the years since its release, SMAP’s “Yozora no Mukō” remains a beloved classic that people of all generations can enjoy singing together.
With lyrics by Shikao Suga and music by Yuka Kawamura—an exceptional creative team—it continues to be cherished as one of SMAP’s signature songs without losing its luster.
Its warm melody and pop rhythm are pleasant to the ear, and its approachable nature makes even those who aren’t confident singers find themselves humming along.
It’s likely an easy choice to sing at karaoke without strain.
Sexy ZoneSexy Zone
Sexy Zone is a four-member idol group whose name was inspired by the idea of having a “Michael Jackson-like sexiness.” Their debut single, “Sexy Zone,” was selected as the image song for Fuji TV’s World Cup Volleyball 2011.
Since all the members were still teenagers at the time, the song was produced as an energetic cheer anthem.
While the melody features many leaps, the overall vocal range isn’t very wide, making it a good choice even for those who aren’t confident singers.
However, the key is somewhat high, so it may be easier for women to sing and a bit challenging for men.
When singing it at karaoke, be sure to adjust the settings to suit your voice.
