Cool Songs That Are Impressive When Sung by Men (31–40)
Until the World Ends…WANDS
A classic released on June 8, 1994, it became a huge hit as the second ending theme for the anime SLAM DUNK.
It’s a crowd-pleaser that’s especially popular among men at karaoke! When you actually try singing it, the tempo isn’t very fast, so any pitch deviations tend to stand out.
If you’re using scoring mode, it’s important to calmly track the pitch bar.
Also, for the long notes, not matching the pitch bar all the way to the end will cost you points.
If you sing with a grand, liberating feel—really letting your voice out—you’ll find your voice flows smoothly and comfortably.
In any case, it might be best to sing carefully right from the A melody!
You’re the Only…Ono Masatoshi
Masatoshi Ono is known in Japan as one of the top masters of high-tone vocals.
In addition to his falsetto, he is highly regarded for his mixed voice, and he’s famous for delivering solid sound pressure even at high pitches.
Speaking of Ono’s most challenging songs, “You’re the Only…” is probably at the top of the list.
This piece features an exceptionally wide range from mid1 G# to hi B, and it does not use falsetto.
In other words, because every high-tone phrase has to be sung in chest voice, it’s difficult to pull off unless you possess an unusually specialized vocal range to begin with.
Moreover, as a rock ballad, it also demands vocal power, making it a song of very high difficulty in every respect.
Wherever you areONE OK ROCK
ONE OK ROCK’s signature song “Wherever you are.” Since it’s sung as a love song that vows eternity, you’ll want to use falsetto to really bring out the song’s appeal.
That said, the falsetto in “Wherever you are” appears mainly at the beginning.
The song builds toward the latter half, so about two-thirds is sung in chest voice.
If you sing the initial guitar-backed section firmly in falsetto to create contrast, it lands stylishly.
Many people who like rock and band music seem to want to sing ONE OK ROCK.
The high range can be a hurdle, but ballads let you cover the high notes with falsetto, so they’re recommended.
Open your throat and keep the breath flowing steadily!
absolute zeronatori
Natori is a singer-songwriter whose vocals blend youthful innocence with sexiness, earning her widespread popularity.
She has many classic songs, but the one I especially recommend as a high-difficulty track is Zettai Reido.
While Natori often favors a downer vocal style, this piece is crafted with a much louder sound, and the vocal lines are correspondingly raw and aggressive.
The range spans from mid1 A# to mid2 G#, which isn’t particularly wide, but with few break points and many rapid-fire phrases, it’s certainly a challenging song when it comes to nailing the pitch with precision.
Super Syndromer10-FEET
This song was created as the opening theme for Cour 2 of the anime Uma Musume: Cinderella Gray, released in October 2025! It’s a high-octane rock track bursting with drive and soul, and even if you think you’re tone-deaf, you can power through it on sheer momentum and feeling! 10-FEET’s songs tend to sit in the mid range for male vocals, with almost no super-high notes, so it’s easy to sing even if high notes aren’t your strong suit.
Also, just listening might make you think for a moment, “Is this in English?” But when you look at the lyrics, you’ll see lots of difficult kanji and words.
It’s probably better to learn the lyrics and melody with both your eyes and ears before you sing.
Go ahead and let your emotions fly and sing your heart out!
Cool songs recommended for men to sing (41–50)
absolute zeronatori
A song infused with burning passion and unwavering resolve.
Natori’s powerful vocals ignite the listener’s heart.
Chosen as the opening theme for the TV anime WIND BREAKER, it was released in April 2024.
Standing alongside Natori’s signature tracks like Overdose and Eureka from the album Gekijou, this is a standout work.
It sings of the strength to withstand harsh realities and the hope for the future.
Sing it at karaoke, and its intensity will overwhelm the room.
It’s the perfect track for anyone who wants to sing with confidence.
BetelgeuseYuuri
Yuri’s “Betelgeuse” was practiced by a lot of my students, regardless of gender.
The more lessons I gave on it, the more I thought, “This song is tough,” so it’s perfect for those confident in their vocal skills! The overall range is D3–D5, making it a higher-key song.
The tricky parts are definitely the chorus and the C section.
Once you start singing, there’s no rest, no room to breathe, and many people struggle with switching to falsetto like Yuri does.
Most of Yuri’s songs don’t offer breaks once you begin, so the key is balancing how much volume to use—what percentage of your full power you’re singing with.
As for breath placement, if you hold out every note, you’ll lose track of where to breathe, so try cutting off phrase endings to create small gaps.
Don’t forget to take a breath in those spots! If you want to switch to falsetto, relax and let the sound float upward lightly—this naturally transitions into falsetto, so give it a try!
