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.

Recommended karaoke songs for men with low voices and those good at singing in the lower register (231–240)

California ConnectionMizutani Yutaka

This was Yutaka Mizutani’s fifth single overall, released on April 21, 1979.

It was produced as the theme song for the popular drama “Netchū Jidai: Keiji-hen,” in which Mizutani starred.

Since it was such a hit show, I imagine quite a few people who are now in their late 40s, as of when this piece was written in 2022, were glued to their TVs watching it back then.

Listening to the song again now, I’m struck by how Mizutani’s vocals showcase an attractive low register while never feeling heavy—he keeps it light and breezy.

If you sing this at karaoke, try to preserve that buoyant, nonchalant vibe as you perform it!

Easy★RiderOkuda Tamio

Okuda Tamio’s sixth single, released in June 1996.

It’s a song where you can fully enjoy Okuda’s vocals, which are rugged and masculine in a good way.

In an era when many male singers tout a high, almost feminine falsetto, this feels like the kind of track you don’t often hear anymore.

It’s a tune you can sing and enjoy with a very relaxed feel, so don’t sweat the details—prioritize the vibe and you’ll be fine! Pronouncing the lyrics with a slightly spit-out, throwaway delivery throughout might also be a key to making it sound authentic.

WANIMA’s new song “Sonzai” (“Existence”).

Since WANIMA often releases upbeat tracks, many people associate them with a wide vocal range.

While that’s true for many of their songs, this piece falls into the narrower-range category for them.

It’s not a low song per se, but it’s built mainly around a thick, midrange register with powerful shouts, making it relatively easy to sing for men with lower voices.

Consider adding it to your repertoire.

If you want to sing a Masaki Suda song at karaoke but aren’t very confident in your singing, I recommend “Long Hope Philia.” This track doesn’t have many high notes and is notably easy to sing.

The melody line is beautiful yet simply constructed, so even those who struggle with singing can pick up the knack more easily.

It’s a song that brings out the beauty of both mid-low and high tones.

It was also used as the theme song for the anime film “My Hero Academia: Two Heroes,” so it’s a great pick for gatherings of anime song fans!

GO!!!FLOW

FLOW 『GO!!!』(Music Video Short Ver.)
GO!!!FLOW

An upbeat rock tune that became a hit after being chosen as an opening theme for the anime NARUTO.

It’s the fourth major-label single by the rock band FLOW, released in 2004.

Its positive, briskly rhythmic lyrics and driving sound captured listeners’ hearts.

With two male vocalists, it’s easy to pick a comfortable part—so be sure to try singing it with a friend.

Go for it!Urufuruzu

This is “Guts da ze!”—a lively song by Ulfuls released in 1996.

As the lyrics suggest, it’s a powerful track and a soulful song that’s easy for men with lower voices to sing.

It’s a fun song everyone can sing together to get the crowd going.

Southern All Stars – Bon-giri Love Song [Official Music Video]

It’s Southern All Stars’ fourth digital-only single, released in July 2023.

The track has an exotic feel that makes you think, “This is exactly Southern!” and it really lets you feel how their signature style has reached a mature peak.

Within this refined sound, you can fully enjoy Kuwata’s trademark vocal style in its seasoned form.

That rich, low-register singing from Kuwata is practically a special privilege for those who are good at low notes when it comes to karaoke! By all means, have fun doing your best Kuwata impression!
