Victim of LoveAyaka feat. Taka
“Victim of Love feat.
Taka,” a lavish collaboration between Ayaka and ONE OK ROCK’s vocalist Taka, was first released digitally in 2022 and later included on Ayaka’s album LOVE CYCLE.
The lyrics portray two people who need nothing but each other, sinking deeper into mutual love.
The harmonies between Ayaka and Taka are striking—tender and serene, yet brimming with a passionate intensity that seems to rise from within.
If you’re a couple who truly care for each other, be sure to try singing it together!

Likewise, Daichi Miura has tracks such as “(RE)PLAY” that are also karaoke favorites.
Their duet song “Heart Up” is perfect when you want to sing a gentle ballad.
Since both are highly recognized artists, it’s also a safe pick when you go to karaoke with a group—another great selling point!
LOVERSWakadanna feat. Katō Miriya
This song features Wakadanna and Miliyah Kato.
Right from the start, Wakadanna’s powerful, husky voice feels like it jumps straight into your ears.
That’s exactly why Miliyah Kato’s clear, beautiful vocals shine even more.
It’s a track where two distinct personalities support each other.
Try singing this solid, heavy-rhythm number as a duet—man and woman—in an emotive, passionate style at karaoke.
Blue MountainsFujiyama Ichirō, Nara Mitsue
This song, widely beloved as an iconic piece representing postwar Japan, was performed as a duet by Ichiro Fujiyama and Mitsue Nara and released in 1949 as the theme song for a film.
Its lyrics, depicting a yearning for the Blue Mountains and the start of a journey, are imbued with hopes and dreams for a new era.
Its popularity has been proven by topping numerous rankings, including TBS’s “National Popular Songs Grand Survey” and NHK’s “Songs of the Showa Era: 200 Unforgettable Songs.” It’s a recommended choice for those who want to enjoy a duet at karaoke.
Handcuffs (duet with Daisuke Hirakawa)Fujita Maiko
A beautiful, heart-piercing ballad that sings of the pain of lost love.
The bittersweet sound woven by the aching vocals and piano accompaniment is simply irresistible.
This song is included on the album “The One I Can’t Forget.” The moments when Maiko Fujita and Daisuke Hirakawa’s voices overlap are truly tear-inducing.
If you’re looking for a gentle, intimate duet, this is the one.
Try singing it while thinking of someone special.
The Day Love Was BornFujitani Miwako / Ouchi Yoshiaki
A collaboration between actress Miwako Fujitani, who was active on screen, and singer-composer Yoshiaki Ouchi.
Steeped in a Showa-era mood, this song was used as an insert track in the drama “To You Who Will Marry Someday,” starring Miwako Fujitani.
Remarkably, Yasushi Akimoto handled both the original story for the drama and the lyrics for this song.
It has been covered by many artists, including May J with Demon Kakka, and Tiara with Kyogo Kawaguchi.
The song’s melancholy truly shines in a male-female duet, especially by those who watched the drama or heard the song in real time back then.
Adults, please let us hear that poignant wistfulness that young people just can’t quite capture!
same age (colloquial; regional variant of onai-doshi)Nomiya Maki
This duet “Onaidoshi,” performed by Maki Nomiya and Ken Yokoyama, has a comfortable city-pop sound that evokes the ’80s.
Included on the album “New Beautiful,” the song commemorates Nomiya’s 40th anniversary since her debut and her collaboration with Yokoyama.
The relationship between the two characters in the lyrics is more than friends but not quite lovers… that vibe is sweetly bittersweet and a little heart-thumping.
How about trying a same-age duo duet yourselves, just like in the song?
