[For Men] When you want to hype up the karaoke party, sing these songs! (71–80)

The four-member rock band DISH//.

While they’re a band, they also have idol-like popularity and enjoy tremendous support from women.

Among DISH//’s songs, the one I especially recommend to men in their 30s is Gohan.

DISH// tend to have many glittery, female-friendly tracks, but this one is crafted with a slightly grittier, earthier melody.

Kitamura Takumi’s vocals may make that less obvious, but if you’re a man in your 30s, wouldn’t you be able to bring out that grittiness even more?

The famous song “Seishun Amigo,” known as the theme for the popular drama Nobuta wo Produce, is sung by the duo Shuuji to Akira—Tomohisa Yamashita and Kazuya Kamenashi.

It features a passionate melody with a slight kayōkyoku flavor, yet it also carries a certain laid-back, Heisei-era nonchalance that leaves an impression.

Although falsetto appears, the overall range is narrow, so even men in their 30s can sing it comfortably while reminiscing.

Yume YumeONE OK ROCK

I think ONE OK ROCK is the band that every guy dreams of.

I’m always thinking, “If I’m going to do a band, I want to do ONE OK ROCK!” but the reality is it’s hard to find someone who can sing their keys…

That said, this time with “Yume Yume,” the vocal range is E3–C5, and there aren’t a lot of repeated high notes, so I think more people will be able to sing it.

However, it has more rap parts than singing… You might struggle with the rap sections when learning it! Try changing the playback speed on YouTube and practice by following the lyrics slowly.

If you can sing it, it should go over really well at karaoke, so it’s nice to have at least one ONE OK ROCK song in your repertoire!

When it comes to Porno Graffitti’s go-to hype song, doesn’t “Saudade” come to mind? The overall vocal range of the song is G3–G#4, so it’s quite narrow.

However, as anyone who knows the song will sense, the tricky parts are the high notes and the speed of the lyrics.

The chorus is relatively easy to sing calmly, but in the A and B sections, if you haven’t memorized the lyrics, you’ll struggle to keep up with the tempo and get left behind.

Also, the key gradually rises, so your stamina will be tested.

For the fast lyrical parts, try not to articulate every word crisply; instead, aim to let the words flow smoothly along the melody.

In the final chorus, the song modulates and the key goes up even further.

If you pull your voice backward while singing, it may crack, so try to project forward with a clean attack.

It’s also important to keep your core (tanden) engaged at all times.

Plant your feet and sing it out!

Men born in the late ’80s to early ’90s might feel a strong sense of nostalgia—this was the go-to song whenever you wanted to hype things up at karaoke, right? “Suirenka” has plenty of moments to get everyone going, like the chorus parts and the towel-spinning! If you’ve got both the main vocalist and the rapper covered, you can enjoy the song with a nice balance.

HAN-KUN, the main vocalist, sings in a relatively high key, so if you’re comfortable with high notes, definitely give it a try.

If you’re not used to high notes but still want to sing it, start by focusing on resonating in your head.

Practicing falsetto and airy tones uses a lot of breath.

It also helps to sing all the lyrics as “hi,” which makes head resonance easier.

Master those high notes and give it a shot!

Lately, Japanese reggae has been quietly regaining popularity.

I imagine many younger listeners are starting to take an interest in reggae.

In that spirit, I’d like to recommend “Junrenka.” Rather than a dancehall track, it’s a reggae song with a strong pop flavor, featuring an extremely catchy melody.

The stark contrast between Wakadanna and HAN-KUN makes it a great candidate for a male duet.

In any case, it was a massive hit in the Heisei era, so it’s guaranteed to get the crowd going—definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

This is the song used as the opening theme for the TV anime “Hotel Inhumans,” released on July 11, 2025.

It has a bit of a brisk tempo, so be sure to remember to take breaths between phrases.

Taking breaths will also help you lock into the rhythm of the song! In the chorus, there are lots of switches between chest voice and falsetto, so aim to sing without straining.

When you lift your facial muscles, your eyebrows will probably lift on their own—how about you? That expression is actually important: with a blank face, you’ll never hit the right pitch, and it becomes harder to produce high notes or falsetto.

Raising your facial muscles also makes switching between chest and falsetto much easier, so try singing with the image of lifting your facial muscles and resonating from the top of your head!
