Relieve stress with karaoke! A special selection of songs that make you feel refreshed when you sing (11–20)
A Naked Heartaimyon
This song honestly expresses the emotions deep in the heart.
Released in June 2020, it was written and composed by Aimyon, who infused it with her own experiences and feelings.
It was also used as the theme song for the TBS drama “My Housekeeper Nagisa-san,” resonating with many listeners.
Featuring an arrangement centered on piano and melodica, its sound is modern yet nostalgic.
It’s a track that those struggling with love can relate to.
Why not belt it out at karaoke and blow off some of that everyday frustration?
will-illTK from RIN TO SHITE SIGURE
An emotional rock ballad where despair and beauty intertwine.
It’s the ending theme for the Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion 15th anniversary rebroadcast project.
If you can pull it off at karaoke, it’s a song that lets your expressive power shine as if you’ve lived in the world of Code Geass! I’ve written a lot about TK’s appeal in my karaoke articles, but I even find his death growls beautiful.
In particular, “will-ill” is tough to learn to begin with, and I’m really struggling with it myself.
There are multiple sections with death growls, and compared to other songs, the tone of the growls is different, making it quite difficult to sing well.
In any case, focus on your vocal cords and try not to use your throat as much when you sing!
IRIS OUTYonezu Kenshi
It’s the theme song for the Chainsaw Man: Reze Arc movie—rather than something you “shout out loud,” it’s a fierce song that feels like you’re “screaming with your heart.” Its themes are fragility, destruction, love, and parting.
It alternates between Kenshi Yonezu’s signature whispery delivery and explosive emotional singing.
That might make it seem difficult, but the range isn’t very wide, so most male singers should be able to sing it in the original key.
There are also rap-like sections and parts closer to whispering than singing, so if you’re not used to those, you may need some practice.
If you pay attention to accents, it’s easier to lock into the rhythm, so give it a try.
For those flip-into-falsetto moments, it’s easier to produce the sound if you imagine pulling the voice up and back toward the rear of your head.
SufferOkazaki Taiiku
Male singer-songwriter Taiiku Okazaki, who has gained popularity with his unique lyrics and catchy melodies.
He’s also highly popular among male listeners and has produced many classic songs, but among them, “Suffer” is especially recommended.
For an Okazaki song, it’s unusual in that it’s rooted in punk rock, featuring melodies that lean toward hardcore punk within the punk genre.
Assuming you sing it full-throttle with some shouts mixed in, it’s a perfect pick for karaoke among male friends.
Gather round! Party people!Yabai T-shatsu Yasan
A rock band from Osaka, Yabai T-Shirts Yasan.
Their song “Atsumare! Party People” is, just like the title says, perfect when you want to enjoy karaoke with a party vibe.
True to punk rock, this uptempo track drives forward with energetic guitar strumming, and singing it will instantly boost your excitement! There are call-and-response parts from start to finish, so it’s great for getting everyone hyped—even people hearing it for the first time.
Since it’s not a particularly melodious song, you don’t need to worry if you’re not confident in your vocals.
Don’t overthink it—just sing and go all out!
Crimson Lotus FlowerLiSA
It’s a song filled with passion and strong will.
Released in April 2019 as the opening theme for the anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba, it powerfully conveys the protagonist’s inner struggles and determination.
LiSA’s soaring vocals pair perfectly with the rock-infused, powerful sound, stirring listeners’ hearts.
Loved not only by anime fans but by a wide audience, it climbed high on various music charts.
It’s the perfect track when you need the courage to face difficulties or to fire yourself up.
How about belting it out at karaoke to blow off some everyday stress?
