DRESSING ROOMnatori
Born in 2003, Natori began posting songs on TikTok in his teens, and his 2022 release “Overdose” became a massive viral hit that quickly raised his profile as a much-anticipated singer-songwriter.
Whether it’s a stylish city-pop-inspired track or an intense, rock-tinged number, his unique low register—rich with a distinctive allure—anchors his vocals and melodies, creating a world that’s unmistakably his.
For those who want to sing like Natori, I recommend “DRESSING ROOM,” released in February 2025.
It’s a chic track with a characteristically danceable, groovy production and sultry melodies—perfect for a nighttime drive.
Because the pitch sits low, it’s especially great for people who struggle with high notes and want to give it a try.
The rapid phrasing and the way the lyrics fit the melody, as well as the rhythmic feel, aren’t exactly easy, but if you listen to the original repeatedly and let both the melody and rhythm sink into your body, you’ll be well-prepared for the performance!
Eeny, meeny, miny, moeHirate Yurina
Since leaving Keyakizaka46, Yurina Hirate has been forging her own path as a solo artist, active in music and acting, with every move she makes drawing attention.
Released in March 2025, “Eeny Meeny Miny Moe” puts tech-house elements front and center, blending coolness and pop sensibility to superb effect, and the striking visual image Hirate presents in the music video also drew a lot of buzz.
Melodically, it isn’t particularly difficult and sits in a range that men can sing as well, but with this kind of track, simply singing it can feel too flat.
It’s best to immerse yourself in the song’s world and perform with the mindset of becoming Hirate herself.
HAPPY BIRTHDAYback number
An emotionally moving medium-tempo ballad that portrays the complex feelings of unrequited love—from the faint expectations on the eve of a birthday to the ache of emotions that never reach their destination.
In contrast to the happiness of a birthday, the loneliness and the sorrow of being unable to express one’s feelings straightforwardly resonate with a delicate melodic line.
Released in February 2019, the song was featured as the theme for the TBS drama “A Story to Read When You First Fall in Love,” and was also included on the album “MAGIC.” With vocals that gently embrace the bittersweet emotions of love that everyone has experienced, it’s a song well-suited for karaoke, where it can be performed in a calm, composed manner.
Heroineback number
A winter love song that delicately portrays the protagonist’s aching feelings.
Its faint, tender romance is supported by back number’s signature nuanced storytelling and warm musicality, resonating deeply with listeners.
Released as a single in January 2015, it also became well known as the campaign song for JR East’s “JR SKISKI.” Later, in 2020, Shimizu Iyori’s stripped-down solo version was featured in a commercial for Kirin’s Tanrei Green Label.
Singing of a bittersweet winter love, the song’s relatable lyrics and gentle melody appeal to all genders, and its singability is part of its charm.
At karaoke, make the most of its comfortable range for a soft, heartfelt performance.
Bubbles and Sheepback number
This heartwarming song portrays a protagonist who, after repeated failures in love and everyday life, gradually learns to accept themselves as they are.
Shifting from serious lyrics to a fresh, spring-like melody and the warm tones characteristic of back number, it gently conveys an uplifting message.
Released on the May 2015 single “SISTER” and included on the December 2015 album “Chandelier,” the track also became well-known as the tie-in song for the men’s shampoo “SUNSTAR TONIC.” With its relatable message and comfortable vocal range, it’s an easy choice to try at karaoke.
amberSEKAI NO OWAR
SEKAI NO OWARI hadn’t been in the spotlight for a while, but they’ve just dropped a hit tune: Kohaku.
When you think of SEKAI NO OWARI, the high-tone vocals by fukase are memorable, but that element is more restrained in this track.
As a result, the overall vocal range is relatively narrow for a SEKAI NO OWARI song.
Men with an average vocal range should be able to sing it comfortably in the original key.

bergamotTomonari Sora
Sora Tomonari is a singer-songwriter who enjoys overwhelming popularity among young people.
His voice is characterized by a low register with a hint of youthfulness, and his downbeat musical style has produced many hit songs to date.
Among his tracks, the one I especially recommend is Bergamot.
With a groove-driven, stylish vocal line, the song’s range is set quite narrowly.
Depending on your vocal range, it may be a song that’s easy to sing an octave higher.
