The last kindnessNEW!JAY’ED
An exquisite R&B ballad with a gentle melody that evokes the stillness before dawn, offering pure listening comfort.
The lyrics quietly reflect not only the lingering attachment and inner conflict after a breakup, but also the warmth that remains in a fading relationship, deeply moving the listener.
JAY’ED’s voice—combining sweetness with a firm core—is incredibly captivating.
Released in February 2009, the track was also included on the October album “MUSICATION,” and it continues to enjoy enduring popularity.
Though it demands high expressive skill, if you practice on the sly and deliver it smoothly at karaoke, you’re sure to captivate the one you fancy.
Goodbye ElegySuda Masaki
This is Masaki Suda’s third single—he’s not only an actor but also an artist who’s incredibly active.
It’s the theme song for the drama “Kiss that Kills.” It’s already cool from the very first guitar part, isn’t it? I think the key to this song is the ebb and flow of emotion.
It’s best to sing it so that the emotion gradually builds toward the chorus.
The lyrics are poetic, and if you sing it at karaoke, your popularity is sure to rise!
Your Song for YouKawasaki Takaya
This is a warm love song crafted by singer-songwriter Takaya Kawasaki, who shot to popularity after going viral on social media.
Conveying feelings by stacking up everyday moments and expressions of gratitude, the track is packed with elements women would love to hear men sing.
Released in March 2018 as a track on the album “I believe in you,” it was also featured in a TV commercial limited to the Kansai region.
Later, in June 2023, a rearranged version was included on the album “Nukumori.” With a conversational melody that doesn’t rely on over-the-top production, this song is recommended for men going to karaoke with someone they’re interested in.
Adding it to your repertoire will be a great boost.
Kaiju no Hanabuta (Monster’s Flower Song)Vaundy
A digital-only single by singer-songwriter Vaundy, released in May 2020.
It was issued as a pre-release single from his first album, “strobo.” The song has quite an eye-catching title, doesn’t it? Contrary to the impression the title might give, the track itself is a very classic, up-tempo pop song, letting you fully enjoy Vaundy’s expansive high-toned voice over the backing track.
Since the vocal melody frequently uses a relatively high register, I think it’s also a great choice for higher-voiced male singers to perform at karaoke.
To sing this well, it’s important not to lose the sense of tempo and groove, so make sure you really feel the beat and take care not to let the rhythm become flat as you sing.
Uncontrollablesatomi
Satomi, who is also active as a member of the entertainment unit Strawburry Prince (focused on video streaming), released this track from his second full album “S’s” in September 2025.
Many listeners may find themselves relating their own experiences to the lyrics, which depict someone resisting peer pressure and standing firm for what’s right.
The heavy, hard‑driving band sound and vocals laced with shouts are sure to set your heart ablaze.
It’s an aggressive rock tune where uncontrollable impulses erupt.
Promise of SunflowersHata Motohiro
A gem of a ballad by Motohiro Hata that sings of deep bonds with loved ones and the universal message that hearts remain connected even when apart.
Released in August 2014 as his 17th single, it moved many as the theme song for the 3DCG animated film “STAND BY ME Doraemon.” It debuted at No.
10 on the Oricon weekly chart and stayed on the charts for an astonishing 64 weeks in total! As a beloved national hit, it continues to be cherished to this day.
If you sing this song— which straightforwardly conveys gratitude to those by your side—gently and with feeling at karaoke, you’re sure to earn instant respect.
KusushikiMrs. GREEN APPLE
This is the opening theme for the second cour of Season 2 of the Nippon TV anime “The Apothecary Diaries,” which skillfully expresses the mystery and wonder of kotodama—the spiritual power of words.
Created by Mrs.
GREEN APPLE in April 2025, the piece brilliantly fuses an oriental atmosphere with band-driven sound.
Interweaving contrasting elements like the moon and the sun, love and apology, it powerfully sings of an eternal love that lasts into the next life.
Like a medicine that can both heal and harm, this grand work delves deeply into the duality of emotions and the power inherent in words.
For karaoke, we recommend singing with heartfelt emotion, keeping in mind vocalist Motoki Omori’s richly expressive delivery.
