Even karaoke beginners can relax! Easy-to-sing songs for men

At karaoke with friends, there are probably many men who feel, “I’m actually not good at singing and I get nervous…” right? No one wants to go off pitch or miss the high notes and feel embarrassed.

The truth is, there are plenty of songs that anyone can sing comfortably, as well as classic tracks that get the whole room excited! This time, we’re introducing J-POP karaoke songs that even those who aren’t confident in their singing can perform with peace of mind.

We’ve selected many songs with simple melodies and rhythms that are easy to remember, so please use this as a reference!

Even karaoke beginners can relax! Songs that are easy for men to sing (21–30)

TemptationGLAY

It’s one of GLAY’s signature songs, starting with a distinctive 7-beat intro.

Even people who don’t usually listen to visual kei might know this track, right? Since many people are familiar with it, it’s also great for getting everyone involved and singing along!

catDISH//

It was released as a coupling track to DISH//’s 10th single, “We Did It.” Later (in April 2020), an acoustic version was released digitally as “Neko – THE FIRST TAKE ver.” It’s a very gentle song that conveys a warm, heartwarming atmosphere.

The vocal melody itself is very simple and easy to remember, and the vocal range used isn’t very wide, so I think it’s quite easy for anyone to sing.

Since the song is built on a slightly bouncing beat, be careful not to let the vocal rhythm become flat.

If you try singing so that the sound resonates against the roof of your mouth, you can reproduce a voice rich in higher overtones like the original performer’s—give it a try.

Sharam Q “Single Bed” (Music Video)
single bedSha ran Q

Sharan Q’s sixth single overall, released in October 1994.

This song is recommended as part of the repertoire for anyone who isn’t confident with high notes or doesn’t feel very sure about their singing ability—in short, for anyone who finds singing difficult.

Tsunku’s own singing gives more the impression of a relatable older brother who’s good at karaoke than a full-fledged vocalist boasting overwhelming vocal prowess, which makes the song very easy for anyone to sing.

If possible, try not to imitate Tsunku; instead, sing it with your own interpretation and expression.

RainSEKAI NO OWARI

This is SEKAI NO OWARI’s 11th major-label single, released in July 2017.

It was written as the theme song for the animated film Mary and The Witch’s Flower.

I found it to be a fine piece that evokes a clear image of a fresh sky after the rain.

The string arrangements heard throughout the track are lovely as well.

Fukase’s vocals have a slightly high-pitched quality, so some people might hesitate to pick this song at karaoke.

However, the vocal melody itself, like the song’s overall mood, is very gentle, easy to remember, and easy to sing, so please give it a try.

If you focus on placing the sound against your upper palate as you sing, you can get a bit closer to his voice, which features rich high-order overtones.

"The Voice of the Sea" Full ver. / Urashima Taro (Kenta Kiritani) [Official]
Voice of the Seaurashima tarō (kiritani kenta)

This digital single was released under the name Urashima Taro by Kenta Kiritani, with distribution starting on July 31, 2015.

It was also used as a commercial song for the mobile carrier au, so many of you may have heard it on TV.

As the title suggests, the song features a melody that evokes a vast ocean, and since the rhythm isn’t difficult, I think it’s a piece you can easily enjoy by selecting it at karaoke and humming along.

I recommend singing it while picturing a majestic sea.

Pure Love SongShonan no Kaze

Pure Love SongShonan no Kaze

It’s a 2006 hit song with lyrics that express feelings for a lover in a straightforward way.

The relaxed tempo—typical of reggae—makes it easy to sing.

Just like the original, it might be fun to pass the mic around among a few people.

HANABIMr.Children

Mr.Children 「HANABI」 MUSIC VIDEO
HANABIMr.Children

Mr.Children is a band loved by people of all ages.

Their distinctive high tones have captivated many listeners.

The melodies are easy to grasp, so as long as you can hit the vocal notes, their songs should be relatively easy to sing.

If you belt too much, you might end up breaking the song’s atmosphere, so you’ll need the technique of holding back while delivering high notes.

By singing as if you’re speaking to someone, you can express that quintessential Mr.Children style.
