Easy-to-sing youth songs for karaoke: recommended classics and popular hits

Shouting “Bakayaro!” toward the sea is a classic scene in coming-of-age dramas.

You might quip, “Nobody actually does that,” but whether you’re young—or even as you get older—there are times when you just want to yell at the top of your lungs.

That said, not many people have a conveniently located (?) beach nearby, so why not blow off steam with some coming-of-age songs at karaoke instead.

It was used as the theme song for the TV drama Dragon Zakura.

It’s a youthful entrance-exam drama known for its striking tagline, “Idiots and jerks should go to the University of Tokyo!” Since it’s been rebroadcast many times, plenty of people will probably find it familiar.

An evocative song that captures the sparkle found in calm, everyday life, it was released in February 2010 as the B-side to Kariyushi 58’s single “Ame nochi Hare.” Its warm acoustic sound and heartfelt message—like reflecting on yourself at the end of the day—are compelling.

The lyrics gently question the finiteness of life and the importance of the everyday.

The song was used as the theme for the 2016 drama “Sanbiki no Ossan 3: Seigi no Mikata, Mitabi!!,” and from October 2024 it has also been featured in a commercial for Japan Manufacturing Service.

It’s a piece I wholeheartedly recommend, one that can stay close to anyone facing a life milestone, such as graduation or a job change.
