Karaoke songs recommended for men with low voices or who are good at singing in a low register

In recent years, Japan’s music scene has seen an increase in songs with lots of high notes, influenced by K-pop.

As a result, it’s become harder for men with lower voices to find songs that suit them.

So! We’ve selected recommended tracks specifically for men with deep voices.

We also considered how well these songs go over at karaoke, so if you’re planning to go with a group soon, be sure to check them out.

Karaoke songs recommended for men with low voices or strong lower registers (81–90)

SaraiKayama Yūzō & Tanimura Shinji

Some of you reading this article may be a bit older.

For you, I recommend Sarai.

It’s a song well known even among younger generations thanks to its association with 24-Hour TV.

The real charm of this piece lies in its deep, mature vocal line.

Although the arrangement feels grand, the vocal range is very narrow—mid1 A to mid2 F—so men with lower voices should be able to sing it smoothly while making the most of their low tones.

Be sure to check it out.

POISON ~A world where you can’t even say what you want to say~Sorimachi Takashi

This is a song famous as the theme for the TV drama GTO.

The low-pitched vocals sung by the lead actor, Takashi Sorimachi, are incredibly cool.

The key is low and there aren’t any particularly difficult parts, so I think it’s easy to sing even for people who don’t go to karaoke very often.

It’s a song that people of any generation would do well to remember.

Nothing I do goes well.meiyo

Nothing I do goes well.meiyo

A debut work by meiyo, whose deep, mellow low tones resonate with the heart.

Far more than just a song that trended on social media, it’s a masterpiece that vividly captures the feelings of today’s youth.

With a sharp eye, it portrays the true emotions of modern people—putting on a brave face while tormented by inferiority, and confronting self-loathing.

The vocal range is set on the lower side at C3–A#4, making it very comfortable for low-voiced male singers.

As you listen, you’ll notice sections with octave-above backing vocals, so when singing, be careful not to get pulled up into the higher register.

Farewell, tearsKetsumeishi

Released in March 2016, this is Ketsumeishi’s 28th single.

As you’d expect from a Ketsumeishi track with its appealing slightly husky vocals, it’s an ideal song for lower-voiced men to sing at karaoke.

The song follows a classic J-pop single structure, with a catchy chorus melody and lyrics that repeatedly include the title—making it an easy pick for a casual karaoke number.

The key to nailing this song is, above all, how coolly you can deliver the rap-style sections.

First, memorize the lyrics well, then try singing while paying attention to phrase breaks and rests.

Number_i is a dance-vocal group supported by women across a wide range of ages.

Their sophisticated dance performances and hip-hop-centered sound are striking.

From their tracks, the one I especially recommend for men with lower voices is GOD_i.

It’s a hip-hop-focused piece, and the hook features very low vocals.

While the rap itself is slightly on the challenging side, the vocal range makes it relatively easy to perform—so consider adding it to your repertoire.

fatalGEMN

Fatal / GEMN – Fatal / GEMN
fatalGEMN

A track that captivates with its heavy, resonant low end and striking melody.

The destined love portrayed by GEMN, the unit formed by Tatsuya Kitani and Kento Nakajima, stirs intense emotions hidden within.

With powerful low tones that convey the light and shadow of humanity, maddening love, and the irony of fate, the soul-shaking vocals bring even greater depth to the piece.

It’s a song that sounds great solo, but is especially cool as a duet—so be sure to let those low notes ring out when you sing it!

SOUVENIRBUMP OF CHICKEN

This is BUMP OF CHICKEN’s 19th digital single, released on September 29, 2022.

A CD single release is also planned for April 2023.

The song was reportedly written as the opening theme for the second cour of the TV Tokyo anime SPY×FAMILY.

BUMP OF CHICKEN’s vocalist, Motoo Fujiwara, is a singer with a wonderfully rich set of higher overtones in his voice, but the range used in this song isn’t that high, so I think it’s quite singable even for men with lower voices.

When you actually sing it, try placing your voice against your upper palate.

You’ll likely produce a tone with more high overtones and get closer to his sound.

Singing a bit curtly might bring you even closer to his style.
