Aim for a high score! Karaoke songs for men to achieve top scores
If you’re simply aiming for a high score at karaoke, the key points for song selection will naturally be to choose songs with “easy-to-sing melodies,” “easy-to-understand lyrics,” and “clear, straightforward rhythms.”
That being the case, your picks will tend to come from the ’90s and earlier—so-called Showa-era and early Heisei kayōkyoku, new music, and J-pop.
Many recent songs have complex melodies and rhythms, and plenty of people think “This is hard!” after just one listen.
In this article, aimed at men who want to score high at karaoke, I’ve also proactively selected relatively singable tracks even from among more recent songs.
Compared to older hits, these are a bit more challenging to sing, but each song’s write-up includes tips and points to watch for to help you boost your score, so please use this as a guide and give them a try!
It feels great when you nail a high score!

OneRIP SLYME
This is a track by RIP SLYME, a group that can be considered one of the pioneers who brought hip-hop into people’s living rooms.
The flowing lyrics over a laid-back track feel incredibly pleasant.
Since there aren’t many pitch changes, it should be easy to sing even for those who aren’t confident in their singing.

Robinsonsupittsu
It’s such a famous song that it’s even in music textbooks—practically a national anthem.
The range is wide and on the higher side, so it might be a bit tough for men with lower voices.
If you can hit high notes, sing boldly and expansively to score higher.
Pay attention to your vibrato!
OrangeSPYAIR
It became a massive hit as the theme song for the 2024 film Haikyu!! The Dumpster Battle.
The same track was also chosen as the theme song for TBS Television and BS-TBS’s Volleyball Nations League 2024, powerfully expressing the passion of young people who devote their youth to volleyball, and marking a revival of the long-standing collaboration between SPYAIR and Haikyu!!.
It’s a rock ballad characteristic of SPYAIR, with easy-to-catch pitches that help you score steadily in karaoke.
The melody is basically structured so you can sing each phrase carefully.
It builds toward the latter half, and the vocal melody changes slightly in the final chorus, so it’s a good idea to review that part thoroughly.

This is a love ballad by Kobukuro that reflects on the many moments the two have shared, and it’s a popular choice at weddings.
The melody is simple and easy to remember, so as long as you’re careful not to miss the pitch in the chorus, you can expect a good score.

I won’t fall in love anymore.Makihara Noriyuki
This is one of Noriyuki Makihara’s signature songs, expressing lingering feelings for a lover after a breakup.
Many people who’ve experienced heartbreak have surely related to it.
Makihara is often seen as difficult to sing, but the rhythm is steady and there’s little English in the lyrics, so it’s quite approachable if you can use falsetto.
