Squid Great King Exercise No. 2Ika Daiō
This is a song that originated from the NHK show “LIFE!—Sketches Dedicated to Life.” It’s sung by Tsukaji from the comedy duo Drunk Dragon, who performs in a squid costume.
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.
Hamburger shopKamon Tatsuo
Speaking of comedy novelty songs, we can’t forget Tatsuo Kamon! From among his many humorous tracks, let me introduce “Hamburger Shop.” Every burger joint has a manual, and staff generally follow it for customer service and food prep.
That’s only natural, but depending on the situation, it can feel a bit off… The lyrics poke fun at this kind of strictly-by-the-manual customer service at burger shops.
Since much of the song is in dialogue, even if you’re not good at singing, you can just read the lyrics in a funny way and you’re set! In any case, with Tatsuo Kamon’s songs, being funny is far more important than vocal prowess!
Steel Frame GirlWashio Isako
This is the song used in a commercial featuring Isako Washio, who is also Tohru Nakamura’s wife.
The piece was originally composed for the commercial, then arranged into a full-length version and released.
The fact that a release was decided afterward is proof of how popular it became.
If you haven’t heard it, give it a try!
Neo-Chara (featuring DJ DEKKA)EXIT
This song “Neo-Chara,” sung by the manzai duo EXIT known for their “charai” (flashy/player-like) vibe, was released digitally in 2018 and features DJ DEKKA—aka the comedian Dekkachan.
Even the credit that would normally say “featuring” is humorously written as “featuraring,” which shows their commitment to the bit, right? Whether you’re into the charai style or not, it’s guaranteed to get everyone hyped together when you sing it at karaoke! It’s an addictive track that makes you want to use youth slang for no good reason.
You can’t eliminate viruses unless you wash your hands for at least 30 seconds.Yuuyami ni izanai shi shikkoku no tenshi-tachi
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.
Dragostea Din Tei (Love’s Mai Ai He)O-Zone
This is a song that sparked a huge boom for a while.
It’s a track by the Romanian music group O-ZONE, released in 2003.
As it started getting featured on Japanese radio and elsewhere, a fan-made “entirely misheard Japanese version” video appeared, which became a big topic online.
The original language is Romanian, so of course it isn’t Japanese.
Still, it’s strange how the lyrics start to sound like Japanese the more you listen.
The song itself has a great upbeat vibe, so it’s sure to liven up a karaoke session.
Funa Funa Funassyi ♪ ~Funassyi Official Theme Song~funasshī
This is the theme song of Funassyi, the unofficial mascot of Funabashi City in Chiba Prefecture.
Its energy level is abnormally high and it can totally drain your stamina, but if you keep pushing while maintaining a falsetto to mimic Funassyi’s voice, you’re sure to get applause from your karaoke group.
