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!

SunYorushika
People often think that songs that are easy for men to sing must have male vocals, but that’s not necessarily true.
If you set the key appropriately, you can score high even with songs sung by female vocalists.
One track I recommend is Taiyō.
It’s a new song by Yorushika, characterized by a generally low vocal range throughout.
The vocalist, suis, is a female artist with a fairly low voice to begin with, so men with higher voices should be able to sing it in the original key without any issues.
The pitch movements are gentle as well, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
I want to take only you away just like this.DEEN
This was DEEN’s debut single, released in March 1993.
’90s J-pop is a treasure trove of song choices when you want to aim for a high score at karaoke! Back then, it was often said that getting sung a lot at karaoke was the first condition for a song to become a hit.
Among them, the track I’m introducing here has an easy-to-sing, easy-to-remember melody, lyrics, tempo, and rhythm—making it a leading candidate for your song list.
Try singing it casually, like you’re humming along, and go for that high score.
Just be careful to keep your rhythm so your singing doesn’t rush ahead!

I should be able to fly (in the sky).supittsu
It’s a famous song by Spitz, and I think many people want to sing it.
The vocalist’s voice is gentle, yet clear and transparent with a solid core.
It’s difficult to express all of that in karaoke, but if you practice a few times without forcing it and focus on bringing out your natural voice, you’ll get the hang of it.
bouquetback number
This is one of back number’s signature songs, expressing straightforward feelings for a lover.
Its lyrics, which sound like speaking directly to a partner, resonate with many people.
The pitch is relatively low, making it easier to sing.
Since the opening starts in a low range, be careful not to go off pitch.
road; way; path; street; route; Tao (in philosophy)EXILE
It’s a classic graduation song that’s often performed as a chorus.
Since it’s commonly sung in chorus, you won’t encounter complex rhythms.
That’s a big advantage when aiming for a high score with scoring features! As long as you target the pitches accurately and sing without going off-key, a high score is guaranteed!
A flower that blooms only hereKobukuro
This duo has great voices, so while you might be able to match the melody, it would be difficult to imitate their vocal timbre and sing like the original.
However, as long as the rhythm is on point, you can aim for a high score even if your voice doesn’t sound similar.
With enough practice, you’ll get good enough to show off at karaoke.
When love endsRin Oto
Rinne, a rapper active in the overground hip-hop scene, is known for catchy lyrics themed around romance.
He’s popular with men too, but especially with women.
Among his tracks, the one I particularly recommend is Koi ga Owareba (When Love Ends).
It leans more toward vocal parts than rap, and every section is sung within a narrow range.
Since the vocal line stays fairly monotone throughout, it’s a great addition to your repertoire if you want to appeal to women and aim for a high score.
