HOWEVERGLAY
GLAY is a four-piece rock band that enjoyed explosive popularity in the 1990s, racking up million sellers one after another, and even now, as legends, they continue to be highly active.
Their 12th single, HOWEVER, achieved GLAY’s first million sales despite having no tie-in at the time of its release, and it remains one of their signature songs, known across generations.
For those of that generation, it’s guaranteed to liven up any karaoke session, but be warned: the overall range is high, and as the song progresses it features large interval jumps.
It’s an immortal masterpiece that, if a man can sing it all the way through, will undoubtedly make him the star of the show.
I want to hug you.Mr.Children
Among Mr.Children’s love songs, “Dakishimetai” is especially popular.
This song, which pours out heartfelt feelings for a special woman, is also a favorite at weddings.
Its warm, love-filled lyrics are so moving they can bring you to tears.
It’s a recommended ballad that we’d love to hear sung tenderly by men in their 30s and up.
It was used as an insert song in the final episode of the drama “Pure,” so those who watched the show back then will find it a nostalgic track!
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.
powder snowRemioromen
Remioromen is a rock band that gained popularity for its unforgettable, catchy melodies and colorful sound that isn’t confined to a three-piece setup.
Their eighth single, “Konayuki,” was featured as an insert song in the TV drama “1 Litre of Tears” and became such a massive hit that it’s now synonymous with the band.
The highlight is the distinctive leap in pitch in the chorus, but it’s easy to go off-key, so special care is needed when singing it.
Now considered a staple winter song, it’s a ballad that male singers in particular should master.

Carried by an unpredictable melodic progression, its single-minded, slightly awkward yet sincere expressions of love resonate warmly.
If you sing it at karaoke, start gently and gradually build emotion, then let your feelings soar in the chorus.
Sing it with thoughts of someone special, and it’s sure to become a moving piece that strikes deep in listeners’ hearts!
