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 (241–250)

Thanks, pal.supittsu

A track from Spitz’s 16th album “Mikke,” released in October 2019.

It’s introduced as having a “captivating deep voice,” but Masamune Kusano of Spitz doesn’t actually have a particularly low, deep voice.

If anything, it might be better to say it’s a song that’s easy to sing at karaoke even for those who struggle with high notes.

Some people may find the original key a bit high, but if you push your voice too much, you might spoil the atmosphere of the song.

In that case, try lowering the key a little.

I think the key to making it sound good is to keep your voice from getting shrill and to maintain a soft tone throughout.

It was released in 1995 as Tomoyasu Hotei’s 10th single.

The song is also famous as the theme music used when Egashira 2:50 makes his entrance, and it reached No.

1 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.

It drew attention for featuring Fumiya Fujii on backing vocals, and it also showcases Hotei’s guitar technique.

Kaiji OP Full “The Future Is in Our Hands” Kaiji opening full

This is the opening theme of the popular anime Kaiji: Ultimate Survivor, a cover by Kaiji’s voice actor, Masato Hagiwara, of a track from THE BLUE HEARTS’ first album.

The original BLUE HEARTS version is really cool too, but the vocals lean a bit too punk, which can make it a little tricky for karaoke.

So I picked this cover version instead.

That said, it’s still a straight-ahead, up-tempo punk number, so don’t worry about singing perfectly—just belt it out with passion and keep it cool! As long as you don’t lose the groove and momentum, you’ll be fine!

A Good Day to Set Out on a JourneyTanimura Shinji

This time, I’m introducing the self-cover version of a song written by Shinji Tanimura of the folk/new music trio Alice for Momoe Yamaguchi.

As a single by Momoe Yamaguchi, it was released in November 1978 and was also used at the time as a campaign song for the former Japanese National Railways (now JR).

Shinji Tanimura is an incredibly compelling singer whose lower register carries both strength and tenderness, and his soaring high notes alongside that rich low end make you want to say, “As expected!” By all means, use your proud ‘ikebo’—that irresistible cool voice—to sing this mellow ballad and captivate your listeners!

A band from Okinawa, THE BOOM had a hit song whose original version was included on their album “Shishunki,” released in January 1992.

It later became a huge hit after being featured in commercials and other media, and many different versions have been made.

Now, if you’re singing this song at karaoke: it’s true that the A-melody calls for a low, “ikébo”-style voice that makes use of rich lower tones, but the chorus and other sections use a higher range.

So unless you can handle some high notes, it might be a bit difficult to sing in the original key.

That said, to deliver a convincing performance—especially in the A-melody—you really need an appealing low register.

If you’re confident in your low voice, definitely give it a try!

It was released in 1999 as Yaen’s fourth single.

The song was used as the theme for the TV program “Tunnels no Minasan no Okage Deshita,” reached No.

3 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart, and, thanks to its success, led to Yaen’s first appearance on the Kōhaku Uta Gassen.

Singer-songwriter Fujii Kaze, who has also performed on the NHK New Year’s Eve music program Kōhaku Uta Gassen.

Fujii Kaze gives the impression of having a slightly lower, fuller voice, and his singing— which can feel emotionally restrained— is part of his appeal.

It’s not a forceful low register; rather, by skillfully using a breathy tone, he emphasizes a sense of ease and a sensual atmosphere.

In this song he sings, the bass resonates strongly, which makes that sensual vocal quality especially palpable.

The relaxed phrasing also contributes to a confident, mature presence.
