Guaranteed Laughs: Best Parody Songs to Hype Up Karaoke! (41–50)
PerfumeEito
In 2020, singer-songwriter Eito took Japan’s pop music scene by storm after going viral on social media.
His song “Perfume,” built around the warm tone of an acoustic guitar and a relaxed tempo, is very easy to sing at karaoke.
Since it’s a slow ballad, making a parody version is simple, too.
The key to parodying this song is to land a solid punchline at the end of the chorus.
What matters is whether you can skillfully convey the backstory and the buildup to that punchline in the first half of the song!
asking for the moonKANA-BOON
This is a parody of KANA-BOON’s “Naimono Nedari.” It’s about a boy without a girlfriend who feels jealous when he sees couples.
The lyrics convey emotions you can’t help but relate to.
With its easy-to-sing melody and popularity, it’s sure to get everyone excited.
Wellerman (Sea Shanty)Nathan Evans
Some people find it hard to come up with parody lyrics for Japanese songs.
That might be because they’re too bound by the original lyrics’ imagery.
In that case, I recommend making parodies of Western songs.
If the song has gone viral on social media, you’re likely familiar with it, which makes it easier to sing.
One especially parody-friendly song is Nathan Evans’s “Wellerman.” The tempo is slow, so it’s okay even if you change the lyrics a bit forcefully.
Chu, diversity.ano
Set to ano’s song “Chu, Diversity,” it sings about the sorrow of losing at gambling and sinking deeper into debt.
A key point is that the lyrics incorporate some of Soshina’s real-life experiences, which makes the anguish of debt feel even more pronounced.
It’s also easy on the ears where it echoes the original’s sound—for instance, opening the chorus with “Get on make,” a play on “geromake,” mirrors the phonetics of the source.
While it preserves the original’s light, breezy feel, the lyrics are packed with suffering, creating an enjoyable contrast that makes for a fun parody.
240 Million EyesGō Hiromi
This is a parody of Hiromi Go’s “24 Million Eyes” that thoroughly describes, down to the fine details, the kinds of issues you find in low-rent apartments.
The sample rent used for the cheap apartment is “24,000 yen,” echoing the original song’s title, which clearly conveys both how inexpensive it is and what kind of environment comes with that price.
It doesn’t just say the room is small; it also depicts psychological anxieties in detail—like the presence of talismanic paper charms—adding to the unease.
The fact that it’s presumed to be set in Tokyo further underscores the anxiety about the rent level.
It’s a parody that makes you feel that only those who can tolerate these conditions get to choose a low rent.
budKobukuro
It’s a hit ballad by the musical duo Kobukuro.
The song was written specifically as the theme for the drama “Tokyo Tower: Mom and Me, and Sometimes Dad,” and was released in 2007 as their 14th single.
Each word seems to gently seep into the depths of your heart, which is exactly why it lends itself well to parody lyrics.
In the featured video, the lyrics are replaced with the names of baseball players.
Thanks to how good the song is, it somehow ends up sounding moving.
For the First Time in ForeverKanda Sayaka, Matsu Takako
Singing songs from Frozen at karaoke is a guaranteed hit! Lots of people know them, and the call-and-response is fun, too.
This parody version sings the lyrics in Kansai dialect.
Even if you sing it perfectly, it’s funny when Kansai-ben slips in, right? Since it’s easy to tweak the lyrics, it’s a great pick for parody beginners!
