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!

Aim for a high score! Karaoke songs for men to get top scores (191–200)
Rock ‘n’ Roll Packagemamasutajio
This upbeat, groovy track is by the Kyoto band Mamasta-Studios.
All three members write songs, and all three can take the lead vocals! By the way, this song is handled by Daisuke Koizumi, the guitarist and vocalist.
If you sing it while hopping around, won’t you inevitably get a high score?!
PredatorAKASAKI
Starting her career as a singer-songwriter at the young age of 16, AKASAKI skyrocketed to fame when her 2024 release “Bunny Girl” became a massive viral hit.
Her songs, woven from the fresh sensibility unique to a teenager, a mature perspective, and outstanding songwriting talent, are all remarkable—so much so that not only her peers but also working adults in their 20s and beyond will find themselves wanting to sing them at karaoke.
The same goes for “Predator,” released in May 2025: it’s a killer tune that showcases AKASAKI’s signature taste, deftly blending a J-pop vibe reminiscent of the early Heisei era with a stylish, 2020s feel.
Its catchy hook will have you humming along after just one listen.
When singing it at karaoke, try delivering it lightly without overexerting, but avoid sounding too flat—be mindful of your breathing spots and aim for a smooth, flowing performance!
Feathers of SteelRADWIMPS
A digital-only single by the Japanese rock band RADWIMPS, released in April 2021.
It’s crafted as a ballad with a very beautiful, straightforward melody.
In that sense, to really sing this song well, you need gentle expression and dynamic contrast—tenderness in the verses and power in the chorus—so some people might feel it’s a bit challenging to pick for karaoke.
That said, if your goal is simply to get a high score, the melody is very easy to hum and approachable, so if you sing it carefully, closely tracing the original, I think it’s relatively easy to aim for a good score.
Personally, though, rather than worrying about points, I’d love for each singer to value their own expression when performing this song.
Banzai ~ So glad I loved you ~Urufuruzu
This was Ulfuls’ 10th single, released in February 1996.
It was a single cut from the album Banzai and was later used as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama Goddess of Victory.
With over 500,000 copies sold, it’s a massive hit that many people have likely heard.
Not just for this song, but with Ulfuls in general, debating pure vocal prowess can often feel a bit pointless.
Analyzing the piece as a composition, though, it’s made with a very simple yet memorable melody and lyrics, which makes it an easy song to sing in that sense.
However, if you’re aiming for a high karaoke score, it may be more effective to sing a bit more carefully—accurately tracing the melody—rather than trying to imitate Tortoise Matsumoto’s energetic vocal style.
It feels like you’ll score higher if you keep the raspy, shouting style to a minimum.

SampleSakanakushon
In 2025, Sakanction—whose recent song “Kaibutsu” stirred major buzz—remains well known as a band that blends not only conventional rock and pop, but also elements of techno and dance music to craft a distinctive sound.
Released in 2007 as a digital-only double A-side single, “Sample” clearly showcases Sakanction’s musical experimentation: it’s a dance track with a pronounced club-music flavor, highlighted by looping synths.
At the same time, the melody has enough solid structure to work as an acoustic guitar-and-voice rendition, which speaks to their impeccable taste.
While simply following the melody isn’t particularly difficult, it’s a good idea to focus on delivering a vocal performance with dynamics so it doesn’t become too monotonous, even though the track itself doesn’t feature big shifts.
SAY KOU SHOWRobāto Akiyama
In addition to his work as a comedian, Akiyama of Robert showcases his musical talent through comic songs and more.
He already has a few hit tunes like “TOKAKUKA,” but lately it’s “SAY KOU SHOW” that’s been especially popular.
This track boldly and unabashedly puts dirty jokes front and center, and is characterized by a groovy yet repetitive vocal line.
The vocal range is narrow as well, making it a perfect song for aiming at a high score.
Song of Greensoshina
In addition to his success as part of the duo Shimofuri Myojo, Soshina showcases his talents in many fields—and he actually has a producer side as a Vocaloid creator as well.
“#Midori no Uta” is a song he originally released in 2020 as a Vocaloid producer, and in 2025 he rearranged it with a band sound and covered it himself.
While preserving the drive of the original, it’s been reborn into a track powered by raw, gritty guitar and urgent, hard-hitting drums.
It’s the kind of song you can power through on momentum when singing at karaoke, so if you want to hype up the crowd, definitely give it a try!
