This Is a Surefire Hit! High-Energy Songs You’ll Want to Sing First at Karaoke [For Men] (101–110)
Love SongGReeeeN
This is the third single by GReeeeN, a four-man vocal group popular for their pop sound that blends a wide range of genres including pop, rock, reggae, breakbeats, and hip-hop.
Boasting numerous tie-ins—most notably as the ending theme for the audition show “Uta-Star!!”—it’s known as one of GReeeeN’s signature tracks.
The overall key is high, and from the middle it moves into rap, then a low-register melody, and back to a high-pitched melody again, making it quite challenging to sing solo.
With its brisk beat and catchy melody, it’s perfect as the first song at karaoke, so it’s a number you’ll want to sing together with friends.
I’ll call your name.SUPER BEAVER
This is the 15th single by SUPER BEAVER, a four-piece rock band whose straightforward, Japanese-centric lyrics and robust rock sound have earned support from a wide range of listeners.
Chosen as the theme song for the film Tokyo Revengers, it delivers a message that reminds us of the important things we often overlook because they feel too obvious—words that truly move the heart.
With lyrics like that and a driving, fast-paced arrangement, it’s the perfect first track to kick off a karaoke session with close friends and get everyone hyped.
If you’re ever unsure what to sing, this is the number to remember.
Dance, please.DISH//
DISH//’s masterpiece Odoryanse, released digitally in September 2025.
It’s a highly unique track, with a distinct, shallow-sounding auto-tune applied throughout.
Overall it follows a J-rock flow, but the pre-chorus shifts into a slightly reggae-like feel, and the chorus unfolds with a murky, almost visual kei-style melody.
Because the song packs so many developments into a single track, it’s a bit less singable, but you can expect it to be a real crowd-pleaser in terms of energy.
SufferOkazaki Taiiku
Male singer-songwriter Taiiku Okazaki, who has gained popularity with his unique lyrics and catchy melodies.
He’s also highly popular among male listeners and has produced many classic songs, but among them, “Suffer” is especially recommended.
For an Okazaki song, it’s unusual in that it’s rooted in punk rock, featuring melodies that lean toward hardcore punk within the punk genre.
Assuming you sing it full-throttle with some shouts mixed in, it’s a perfect pick for karaoke among male friends.
Boom-Pow-Wow!SixTONES
A party tune that amps up any karaoke session.
Among them, the one that gets everyone hyped from the very first track is “Boom-Pow-Wow!” It’s a song by SixTONES, a Johnny’s male group known for their meticulous musicality and charisma, and it was featured as the lead track on their 2023 album “Koe” (“Voice”).
The wild style suits SixTONES perfectly and it’s seriously cool.
Not only is it super easy for everyone to enjoy together, but the catchy, sing-along tempo and call-and-response parts will liven up the atmosphere, too! Highly recommended for stage rooms as well!
This never fails! Hype songs men will want to sing first at karaoke (111–120)
IllusionMY FIRST STORY × HYDE
A collaboration between these two artists is incredibly extravagant, isn’t it? Actually, I sang this live with a male student, and from a woman’s perspective the key is on the lower side, so it was a bit tough…
But it was really fun to harmonize on top and trade lines back and forth! There’s also a death growl at the very end, so it’s definitely a song I’d love to hear sung by two men! Basically, it’s a song where the two of you alternate between lead and harmony, but there are various ways to harmonize—Hiro often takes the higher harmony and HYDE the lower.
There are parts sung an octave lower as well, so I think it’s best to switch things up and enjoy the different approaches!
WeekenderHey! Say! JUMP
Weekender is a must-recommend for weekend karaoke.
It’s a single released by Hey! Say! JUMP in 2014, and the dramatic intro hooks you right away.
The message about getting ready to have fun makes it a top pick for the first song of the night! It’s a track overflowing with Hey! Say! JUMP’s mysterious charm.
The Johnny’s-style worldbuilding and classic, catchy melody make it easy for everyone to enjoy.
The rap section would be fun to pass around like a relay, just like in the music video.
It’s a refreshing, upbeat love song, so it’s also great for karaoke with your partner or someone you like.
