19 (Juke) That Paper Airplane Piercing the Cloudy Sky Live
that paper airplane19

A male folk duo, 19’s second single, released in March 1999.

The original singers’ voices are very simple and friendly, and the melody is easy to remember, so even if you sing this song at karaoke, there probably won’t be many parts you find difficult.

Just be careful not to let the brief falsetto part right before the chorus sound weak—switch your voice smoothly as you sing.

If you relax and let the falsetto come out gently without forcing it, you should be able to sing it nicely!

A track by ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION, a band that continues to lead Japan’s rock scene.

The vocalist, Masafumi Gotoh, is known for his irresistibly rich voice brimming with masculine charm! While some Ajikan songs are in a higher key, this one is especially recommended for men with lower voices.

Why not try channeling him—nasal nuances and all—and make the song your own?

When it comes to popular artists with deep voices, many people probably think of Sora Tomonari first.

Among Tomonari’s songs, the one I especially recommend as easy for men to sing is Bergamot.

The piece is primarily built around low and lower-mid ranges, with occasional higher phrases.

The pitch movement isn’t particularly drastic, and there’s no need to belt, so even when a slightly higher part appears, you should be able to glide through it smoothly.

Sukima Switch is a popular duo that has energized Japan’s J-pop scene for many years.

They still release new songs consistently, and you can always spot them around the middle of the charts.

Among their works, the one I especially recommend is Gyakuten Trigger.

It fully showcases the duo’s charm: bright, uplifting messages and melodies.

Despite its high energy, there are plenty of spots to breathe and the vocal range isn’t wide, so most male singers should be able to handle it without any trouble.

Tatsuro Yamashita’s 12th single, released in December 1983—though thanks to its huge popularity and its status as a Christmas-season staple—has been re-released in multiple remade versions since its initial release.

I imagine hardly anyone reading this article isn’t familiar with the song.

As Yamashita himself has noted, the tune uses the so-called “canon progression” for its chord sequence, making it very straightforward, simple, and easy to remember.

The vocal melody doesn’t venture into extreme highs or lows, so it’s easy for anyone to sing—truly a quintessential “standard song.” It might be fun for everyone to imitate and try the choral section in the middle together.

It’s such a classic that it feels silly for me to lecture you on the details at this point, so just enjoy it without overthinking!

Super Syndromer10-FEET

10-FEET – Spurt Syndrome (Anime 'Uma Musume: Cinderella Gray' Cour 2 Opening Theme)
Super Syndromer10-FEET

This song was created as the opening theme for Cour 2 of the anime Uma Musume: Cinderella Gray, released in October 2025! It’s a high-octane rock track bursting with drive and soul, and even if you think you’re tone-deaf, you can power through it on sheer momentum and feeling! 10-FEET’s songs tend to sit in the mid range for male vocals, with almost no super-high notes, so it’s easy to sing even if high notes aren’t your strong suit.

Also, just listening might make you think for a moment, “Is this in English?” But when you look at the lyrics, you’ll see lots of difficult kanji and words.

It’s probably better to learn the lyrics and melody with both your eyes and ears before you sing.

Go ahead and let your emotions fly and sing your heart out!

Naughty SunORANGE RANGE

ORANGE RANGE – Naughty Sun (Reiwa ver. Music Video)
Naughty SunORANGE RANGE

ORANGE RANGE’s signature hype song, released in 2007.

It became a huge hit as the theme song for the drama “Hanazakari no Kimitachi e ~ Ikemen Paradise ~.” It blends themes like summer, youth, and forbidden love—truly a youth anthem! It’s up-tempo and all about the groove, so lots of people pick it when they want to get the crowd going at karaoke.

The opening melody note is B4, which is a bit high, and the pronunciation tends to make you tense up.

With the “i” vowel, pulling the mouth sideways can cause strain and make you use your throat, so it’s easier if you create space in your mouth and sing with a feeling of humming upward.

Raising your facial muscles as much as possible at this time also makes pronunciation easier.

I hope you’ll split the parts among the three vocal roles and have fun singing it!
