Recommended ballads for men (81–90)
the red threadKobukuro
This is a long ballad that carefully depicts the feelings of a young person entering a rough patch with their partner, unfolding over seven minutes.
As a year passes, the protagonist’s heart gradually starts to look forward, and that progression is portrayed in a striking way.
Included on the album “Root of my mind,” which Kobukuro produced soon after forming, the song gently conveys the importance of trust in love.
It’s recommended for those who, while struggling with a relationship with someone important, still want to cherish their feelings for each other.
It’s a song you’ll want to sing with all your heart at solo karaoke or in the company of close friends.
Blue BenchSasuke
“Aoi Bench” is Sasuke’s debut single, a heartbreak number that captures one’s feelings for a high school crush.
The song was a big hit at the time and became widely talked about, especially among students—it was even included in music textbooks and became a staple at school choir competitions.
Since the lyrics reflect feelings from an adult’s perspective, it’s recommended not only for students but also for working men.
It’s relatively up-tempo, so it doesn’t feel too gloomy and is easy to sing at karaoke!
single bedSha ran Q
This song, one of Sharam Q’s signature tracks, has long been a staple favorite as a ballad people want to sing at karaoke.
It portrays a male protagonist’s lingering feelings, and Tsunku’s beautiful vocals enhance the poignancy woven into the lyrics.
It’s actually often recommended as an easy song to sing at karaoke.
While the vocal range might be slightly wide, it stays within the typical chest-voice range for men, and its slow tempo makes it easy to check each note as you sing—another reason it’s approachable.
If you’re a man who isn’t confident about singing, give this song a try at least once.
Robinsonsupittsu
Spitz has countless classic songs, but among them, isn’t “Robinson” one of the most popular choices for karaoke? No matter how many times you listen, it never gets old—you just want to hear it again and again.
It was also used as an insert song in the drama “Hakusen Nagashi,” so I think it’s a nostalgic tune for those who watched the show back then.
Spitz’s songs are in keys that anyone can sing regardless of gender, so they’re really helpful when you’re unsure what to sing.
That said, if you’re a Spitz fan, this is definitely a song you’ll want to sing at least once!
Maplesupittsu
This is a song that was used as an insert track in the drama “Over Time,” starring Makiko Esumi, and as the theme song in the drama “A Mother’s Last Day,” starring Takako Tokiwa.
In 2017, it drew attention again when actress Moka Kamishiraishi covered it for a Kirin Gogo no Kocha (Afternoon Tea) commercial.
The chorus melody is very memorable.
It’s also very popular at karaoke—many people probably sing it often, don’t they?
All of the YouthFujifaburikku
Fujifabric’s ultimate classic “Wakamono no Subete” is a ballad you’ll want to sing in the summer.
Released in 2007, it was written and composed by Masahiko Shimura, Fujifabric’s former vocalist, who sadly passed away at the young age of 29.
It remains a beloved masterpiece among both the members and the fans, even being performed on Music Station in 2019.
The lyrics poignantly depict a fireworks festival and someone dear to the heart.
Many people probably find themselves wanting to listen to this song every summer, no matter how old they get.

Where love callsPorunogurafiti
A song with a slow tempo that moves forward step by step, at a pace like your own stride, yet delivers an impressively compelling message.
Porno Graffitti have many great songs, but among them this one feels especially true to their style in both melody and lyrics.
It also has a vibe that makes it easy to sing at karaoke, so I recommend it.
