[Get Laughs with This!] Hilarious Karaoke Gag Songs (111–120)

Automobile Show SongKobayashi Akira

This song by Akira Kobayashi is a humorous piece that weaves puns on the names of famous cars into the lyrics.

It was also used on the hugely popular show “How Do You Like Wednesday?”, so it seems like it would get a crowd going even when younger people sing it.

There’s also an anecdote that the original lyrics were banned from broadcast because certain phrases were deemed problematic, and this is the re-released version with the altered lyrics.

Kyuso Nekokami has lots of fun, upbeat tracks you can really get into.

From the title alone, Giri Showa sounds intriguing, and it’s a song that reflects the half-lives of members born right at the tail end of the Showa era and their feelings toward the Heisei era.

The word “Reiwa” appears in the lyrics, and the music video released right after the new era name was announced also drew attention.

If you’re from the same generation as Kyuso—often called the “Yutori generation”—this is a track you’ll likely relate to and get hyped for.

The call-and-response with the era names really gets the crowd going!

There’s a perfect song for people who aren’t great with karaoke.

It’s “You Can’t Remove Viruses Unless You Wash Your Hands for More Than 30 Seconds,” released in 2020 by Evening-Darkness-Enticed Jet-Black Angels.

While delivering an important message about preventing the spread of infections, it lives up to its title by finishing in just 30 seconds—combining convenience with practicality.

It actually gets the crowd going in a karaoke box, and I think both the singer and the listeners can enjoy it together.

It’s a song that leaves a strong impact in a short time.

Released in 2019, this was Dempagumi.inc’s first single since becoming a six-member group: “Rat♡Ox♡Tiger♡Rabbit♡Dragon♡Snake♡.” As the title suggests, it’s a Zodiac-themed song, and the fusion of its unique lyrics featuring the twelve zodiac signs with idol pop is impressive.

It might be fun to sing along by emphasizing the part for your own zodiac sign.

The lyrics and music are by singer-songwriter Noriyuki Makihara, and the choreography is by world-renowned dancer Kenichi “Ken” Mori, making for a lavish collaboration.

It’s a novelty song created earnestly and sincerely.

This is one of Kiyoshi Hikawa’s signature songs released in 2004, “Kiyoshi no Zundoko-bushi.” The catchy chorus makes you want to hum along without thinking, doesn’t it? Be sure to include the call-and-response parts.

You could even swap in your own name.

DIES IN NO TIMEFukuyama Jun

Jun Fukuyama’s “DIES IN NO TIME” is his fourth single, released in 2021, and it serves as the opening theme for the TV anime “The Vampire Dies in No Time.” Fukuyama himself also stars as the character Draluc.

As you can tell from the title, the anime is a gag comedy, and while the song title is simply written in English, it’s actually pretty cool.

Isn’t something that’s both funny and cool the ultimate combo? It’s a highly recommended track that delivers big laughs along with a frantic, high-speed energy!
