This is the song that became famous as the commercial jingle for Ezaki Glico’s “Pocky Chocolate,” and I think it left a strong impression on anyone who watched those ads back then! It’s a rhythm-focused song, so you don’t have to worry much about pitch—just get into the groove and it’s a lot of fun! It’s perfect for karaoke beginners or when you want to liven up the mood! There may be a part from the middle where the melody feels a bit high if you sing it in chest voice… but don’t worry! For the high notes, just crank up your energy and project your voice as if you’re aiming far away, and the sound will come out.

Engaging your facial muscles and using gestures is important too.

Above all, have fun!

100% Couragenaniwa danshi

For anyone in their 30s or younger, the popular anime Nintama Rantarō is something you’ve probably seen at least once.

This song, “Yuuki 100%,” is a cover of Nintama Rantarō’s theme, and it matches perfectly with Naniwa Danshi’s upbeat vocals.

Since it’s an older song, the vocal line is far easier to sing than most recent J-pop.

You might feel it’s on the higher side, but the range is quite narrow—mid2A to mid2F#—so there’s plenty of room to lower the key.

Overall singability is top-notch, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

A smash-hit motivational song by the artist BLUE ENCOUNT, whose unforgettable powerful vocals and bright musical worldview have earned strong support from younger generations.

The song conveys that you can overcome any hardship, and its simple melody makes it an easy number to sing.

HONEYL’Arc〜en〜Ciel

HONEY [15th L’Anniversary Live]
HONEYL'Arc〜en〜Ciel

When it comes to artists that men in their 40s often listened to, doesn’t L’Arc~en~Ciel come to mind? This time, I’d like to introduce “HONEY.” One of my students practiced this song too.

L’Arc~en~Ciel’s vocal range is surprisingly on the lower side.

I think it’s easy to sing for people with a typical male range plus the ability to use falsetto.

The chorus is very clear and uplifting, so it’s easy to add dynamics, and rock fans will love it! On the flip side, the key might be how to keep the low notes from getting muffled.

If you’re not used to a certain range, both low and high notes can require a lot of breath.

When singing low notes, imagine releasing a slow, steady mass of air—your body will resonate more easily and you’ll hear your own voice better.

And above all, the groove matters! It also makes it easier to project your voice, so sing with energy and get into the groove!

GUTS!arashi

Isn’t “GUTS!” the perfect song to give you a push when you’re feeling down or want to do your best? It was used as the theme song for the drama “Even If You’re Weak, You Can Win: Teacher Aoshi and the Clumsy High School Baseball Players’ Ambition,” starring group member Kazunari Ninomiya.

Since it’s a cheer song, I think it’s easy to sing even for those who aren’t into love songs.

There are some high notes that might be a bit tough for men, but you can handle that by adjusting the key.

The melody is relatively relaxed, so please give it a try and sing it sometime.

KobukuroIma, sakihokoru hanatachi yo

Kobukuro – Oh flowers now in full bloom
KobukuroIma, sakihokoru hanatachi yo

This is a song that was used as the theme for NHK’s Sochi Olympics in 2014.

Many of you are probably familiar with it.

Although it’s a song by Kobukuro, “Ima, Saki Hokoru Hanatachi yo” has a very clear vocal melody, making it easy to sing even solo.

As for how to feel the rhythm, taking it slowly and relaxed works well, but doubling the tempo also makes it easier to sing and is recommended.

The overall vocal range of the song is C3 to F#4, so most men should be able to sing it comfortably in chest voice.

Also, since it’s a ballad, creating contrast between the lower parts of the verses (A and B sections) and the lift in the chorus will enhance expressiveness and help boost your score.

Try to keep your facial muscles lifted so your pitch doesn’t drop while you sing!

An uplifting anthem by the artist Sukima Switch—known for their beautiful, captivating vocals and lyrics filled with positivity, and for creating theme songs for hugely popular anime.

The song encourages living true to yourself without being bound by society’s rules, and its recurring, similar melody makes it an easy number to sing.
