This is a renowned song that has continued to resonate with many as an anthem celebrating life’s new beginnings.

In 1988, it was re-recorded and released as a single, becoming a major hit that reached No.

In the early 1990s, it was also featured in commercials for Kirin Lager Beer, further boosting its recognition.

I was searching for you ~New Jersey United~CHEMISTRY
As a woman, when we go to karaoke, we want men to sing love songs, right? CHEMISTRY’s “Kimi wo Sagashiteta (I’ve Been Searching for You)” is perfect for meeting that expectation.
It’s a tender ballad you can really let people listen to, with a relaxed tempo that makes it easy to sing freely.
The lyrics displayed on screen convey the desire to keep protecting the one you love, so the message comes across clearly.
If a man sings such a straightforward and pure love song, there’s no way it wouldn’t make a woman happy!
Somewhere other than hereGLAY
If the men present are in their 30s, GLAY is a safe choice.
TERU’s high-tone voice is tough for men to sing at karaoke and is actually in a key that’s easier for women.
That said, the guys generally know the songs well, so they’ll likely sing along here and there.
Among GLAY’s tracks, the absence of shouty parts and the fact that the lyrics aren’t full-on romance make them easier to sing without feeling self-conscious.
