Open! TulipAkiyama Kanpei
Kanpei Hazama, beloved across generations for his lighthearted gags, released “Hirake! Tulip” in 1975.
Its comical lyrics about pachinko leave a strong impression.
With its somewhat retro vibe, it’s perfect for karaoke with senior colleagues or your boss.
Try singing it coolly to the rhythmic accompaniment.
It’s also fun to have everyone sing the phrase at the end of the chorus together.
Since the song doesn’t require a wide vocal range and has an easy-to-follow beat, it’s a comic song that even those lacking confidence in their singing can tackle with ease.
phantom vibrationKyūso Nekokami
When it comes to songs that humorously depict smartphone addiction, this is the one! Released by Kyuso Nekokami in October 2013, this track satirically sings about issues facing modern society.
It portrays people today, so dependent on their phones that they feel like vital organs, all set to an upbeat melody.
The music video—featuring sounds inspired by the iPhone’s ringtone—also drew attention.
It’s become a staple at live shows and a fan favorite.
If you can’t let go of your smartphone, why not sing it together at karaoke, share a laugh, and take a moment to reflect on your own life?
Theme of KOUGU IshinKOUGU ishin
The music unit KOUGU Ishin, which sprang from the popular comedy show “Ariyoshi no Kabe,” has a hilarious track, “KOUGU Ishin no Theme”! KOUGU refers to tools like screwdrivers and hammers.
KOUGU Ishin is what you get when you apply the recent trend of personification to tools.
The main members are the comedy duo Kitsune.
Seeing Tom Brown’s Michio and Nunokawa keeping straight faces really hits the spot, too.
It’s also charming how they cleverly weave the character backstories into the lyrics.
And don’t underestimate them—the rap part that kicks in just after the one-minute mark is legit enough to draw you in, far from a throwaway unit!

Taxi driverSha ran Q
Sharan Q is a band that has produced numerous hit songs, led by tracks like “Single Bed.” While they’re often associated with classic, mainstream tunes, they actually have some quirky works too.
One of those is “Taxi Driver.” This song was created as the opening theme for the talk segment of the popular comedy show “Downtown no Gaki no Tsukai ya Arahende.” With lyrics written by Hitoshi Matsumoto, it features exceptionally unique lines.
Give it a try at karaoke!
Classic otaku thingriaru akiba boizu
The Real Akiba Boyz have been getting more exposure on YouTube, TikTok, and other media lately, and I absolutely love them! They can sing, they deliver laugh-out-loud comedy like pro comedians, and above all, their razor-sharp dance performances will blow you away.
Their song “Otakuni Arigacchi” is basically a rap set to a light, catchy beat about classic “otaku moments,” and every line will make you chuckle.
Spinning gacha endlessly for your fave, watching late-night anime every night and being dead tired in the morning… totally relatable otaku stuff, right? It might go over even better when you sing it at casual get-togethers rather than official events—especially at gatherings of fellow otaku!
SO.YA.NAWest End X Yuki
It’s a parody song that covers EAST END×YURI’s track “DA.YO.NE” in regional dialects.
It’s performed by a trio: comedians Koji Imada and Koji Higashino, joined by Yukiko Takeuchi, formerly of Osaka Performance Doll.
Highly recommended for people from the Kansai region!
DubiDubidu （Chipi Chipi Chapa Chapa）Christell
A song so full of fun it’ll make you smile without thinking! Featured on Christell’s debut album “Christell,” this energetic track centers on the joy of playing with friends and the delight of singing and dancing.
Released in November 2003, the album became a smash hit, earning eight platinum discs.
With its bright, catchy melody and rhythmic lyrics, it’s loved by a wide range of listeners, from kids to adults.
In 2023, it resurged as an internet meme and became a hot topic on social media.
It’s the perfect song for livening up a karaoke session or singing together with everyone.
