In the Vast Sky and Earth / Chiharu Matsuyama

Many of you might feel, “I’m not good at singing, but this is the one song I really want to nail!” It’s a wonderful piece that draws you into its world with a powerful yet gentle voice.

The key is a bit high for many male singers, so if it feels strenuous, try lowering it by one or two semitones.

The Zero Sense10-FEET

10-FEET – The Zero Sense (Ending Theme Song of the Film 'THE FIRST SLAM DUNK')

This is 10-FEET’s 22nd single, released in November 2022 as a digital-only single.

It was selected as the ending theme song for the film THE FIRST SLAM DUNK.

It’s crafted as a very cool medium-to up-tempo rock song! The vocal melody is simple and easy to follow, so to sing it well, I think it really comes down to projecting as powerfully as you can and staying firmly locked into the rhythm of the backing track to keep the sense of groove.

Don’t sweat the small details—belt it out with strength and enjoy riding the rhythm as you sing! If you also pay attention to the rests between phrases, it’ll feel even better, so definitely experiment and fine-tune your approach.

Soap bubbleNagabuchi Tsuyoshi

Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi / Shabondama (1991)

The 24th single “Shabondama” became a million seller, aided by the popularity of the tie-in TV drama of the same name.

The lyrical guitar riff in the intro and the delicate acoustic guitar tones give the entire track a bittersweet feel.

With its low key, narrow vocal range, and minimal melodic movement, it’s approachable even for those who aren’t confident singers.

The emotionally charged lyrics evoke the image of someone struggling yet pressing forward, making it a song that will likely captivate listeners even at karaoke.

It’s a sad color, isn’t it?Ueda Masaki

Masaki Ueda – Kanashii Iro Yane (A Sad Color) Showa 57 (1982)

“Kanashii Iro Yane,” the signature song of singer-songwriter Masaki Ueda, known for his charming husky voice, was released in 1982 and has been around for about 40 years, yet it’s a sophisticated urban ballad that doesn’t feel dated at all.

The karaoke key isn’t high, making it easy to sing even for people who aren’t confident singers.

threadSuda Masaki × Ishizaki Hyui

Ito – Masaki Suda × Huwie Ishizaki

Ito, a collaboration by Masaki Suda and Huwie Ishizaki.

Chosen as the ending theme for a film of the same name, this song is one of Miyuki Nakajima’s signature works that moves listeners’ hearts.

In particular, Suda’s masculine vocals—ranging from rich lower-mid tones to beautiful highs—and Ishizaki’s gentle, warm voice amplify the song’s emotional impact.

Thanks to its simple melody, it’s easy to sing and a good choice to try at karaoke.

Although originally sung by a woman, the range isn’t very high, so it’s comfortable for both men and women to sing.
