[2026] Songs I Want to Sing at Karaoke! A Roundup of Easy-to-Sing Johnny’s Songs (41–50)
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.
I wish you lots of happinessnaniwa danshi

Naniwa Danshi’s classic “Sachiare” is memorable for its poppy melody.
Although the range is on the higher side at mid1D to hiD, it’s not particularly difficult for female singers.
For male singers, the B-melody before the final chorus may feel high, so it’s a good idea to lower the key with that section as the reference point.
The vocal line itself is straightforward without quirks, so as long as you can handle the range, it shouldn’t feel difficult to sing.
monsterarashi

A love song about a bittersweet desire to transform into a monster and whisk a lover away to the world of darkness—this is Arashi’s 30th single, released in May 2010.
Chosen as the theme song for the drama Kaibutsu-kun starring Satoshi Ohno, the track was a massive hit, selling 543,000 copies in its first week.
The song is characterized by a sparkling, quintessential Johnny’s pop melody.
Every member except Kazunari Ninomiya has a solo part, making it especially fun in karaoke to showcase each of the five members’ unique personalities.
From the string-laden intro onward, it brims with charm that instantly grabs the listener’s heart.
Doki itnaniwa danshi

This is a powerful rock tune by Naniwa Danshi that brightly cheers on young people starting a new chapter in life.
Released in February 2025 as the CM song for AOKI’s “Freshers Fair,” it carries a warm message that “being yourself is what’s truly wonderful,” with forward-looking lyrics full of a spirit of challenge that resonate deeply.
This track fully showcases the vocal and performance strengths of the group’s seven uniquely talented members.
The dance scenes, featuring refreshingly simple outfits of white shirts and denim, are also striking.
It’s a song that will gently nudge anyone taking their first step into something new.
Labyrinth Love Songarashi

A heartfelt, bittersweet love song that expresses a fateful encounter with a rhythm like the ticking of a second hand.
The form of love Arashi portrays brims with a powerful bond that feels like a connection from a past life, and with the determination to protect the one you love.
Released in November 2011, the song drew attention as the theme for the Fuji TV drama “Nazotoki wa Dinner no Ato de” starring Sho Sakurai, selling 240,000 copies on the Oricon daily singles chart the day before its release.
It was later used as the theme for the film “Nazotoki wa Dinner no Ato de,” and included on the acclaimed albums “Popcorn” and “5×20 All the BEST!! 1999-2019.” It’s a track to listen to in moments when you want to etch into your heart the time you spend with someone special, while feeling deep love and trust for the one you cherish.
hometownarashi

Included in the standard edition of the album “Japonism,” released in October 2015, this song was originally unveiled as part of a special segment on the 61st NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen in December 2010.
Since then, it has been lovingly performed in various forms.
In 2013, it was even selected as the compulsory piece for the elementary school division of the NHK National School Music Competition, helping it gain popularity across generations.
The lyrics, which depict nostalgic scenery and bonds with loved ones, paired with a warm melody designed for choral singing, gently envelop the listener’s heart.
With minimal leaps in vocal range and a relaxed tempo, it’s very easy to sing.
How about it as a closing number for karaoke?
era; age; time; periodarashi

This is a single released in August 2001, known as the theme song for the drama “The Kindaichi Case Files,” starring group member Jun Matsumoto.
It’s an undeniably cool track that fuses rock guitar with rap.
The lyrics convey a strong determination to make decisions with one’s own heart and not be swept along, precisely because the world is so convenient.
This was also their last release under Pony Canyon, making it a song that symbolizes a turning point for the group.
At karaoke, it’s sure to get the crowd going if everyone splits up the rap parts.
The key sits in a comfortable range for male singers, but rhythm is crucial—so listen closely and then give it a try.
