loveHoshino Gen
Gen Hoshino’s hit song “Koi” is beloved not only by men but also by women.
The track served as the theme song for the wildly popular drama “We Married as a Job!” (Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu), which became a social phenomenon and earned nationwide acclaim.
You still see it pop up often in karaoke histories, don’t you? While the song has a catchy melody, it also packs a punch with accents on the second and fourth beats, giving it a surprisingly solid groove.
In terms of name recognition and ease of getting into the rhythm, it’s a surefire crowd-pleaser.
MatatabiWANIMA
WANIMA, a punk-leaning rock band boasting top-tier popularity.
They have many great songs, but the one I especially recommend is “Matatabi.” It’s the theme song for the anime “Night of the Living Cat,” and, for WANIMA, it’s unusually shaped into a pretty hardcore melody.
In the middle of the track, there’s a shout that’s almost like a scream, and it’s one of the most satisfying moments in the song—so if you sing it at karaoke, it’s sure to get the crowd going.
Asymmetrynaniwa danshi
With the recent boom of K-POP and the like, I think it’s become more common for guys to sing idol songs even at karaoke with just men.
One track I recommend is Naniwa Danshi’s “Asymmetric.” Naniwa Danshi have always excelled at a more orthodox musical style, and this song in particular is crafted with an extremely catchy melody reminiscent of Arashi in the mid-Heisei era, so it’s sure to get everyone hyped.
The phrase right before the chorus is a bit distinctive, so be mindful of the sudden pitch changes there and prepare to handle them.

tinglingyuzu
This song was released digitally on July 30, 2025, and was written as a tie-in for Suntory’s bourbon whiskey Jim Beam.
It’s a characteristically Yuzu-style track: fresh and up-tempo.
It seems Yuzu themselves also appear in the web commercials.
In the backing band, the piano really stands out, and the drums and bass are easy to hear, making it easy to catch the rhythm.
In the chorus, there’s a leap from D4 to A4 on the syllable “ma.” The “ma” sound tends to be nasal and can be hard to project, so try to put about five times more intention into your voice than you think you need.
The key is to project your voice briskly as if aiming into the distance! If it comes out smoothly without catching, you’ve nailed it.
Be sure to hit those high notes there when you sing!
CarmineELLEGARDEN
This is the new opening theme song for the Egghead arc of the TV anime One Piece, which began airing on August 10, 2025.
The average vocal range isn’t that high, but at the start of the chorus there’s a leap from D4 to B4.
If you can get past that spot, the rest of the melody sits comfortably, so I think it’s relatively easy to sing.
Since it has a rock sound, you’ll want to belt that high section of the chorus in chest voice.
The key to singing the leaping notes is pitch stability.
If the placement of your voice changes when switching between low and high notes, you may strain your throat and find it harder to sing.
Aim to ‘set’ your pitch between the eyebrows, and try singing with your facial muscles lifted, projecting the voice forward.
That will also help you release tension a bit, allowing the vocal cords to vibrate well and your voice to come out naturally!
I don’t need it.NEW!Sakanakushon
As a song that conveys SAKANACTION’s signature sense of change and challenge, it’s their first new track in about a year, released digitally on February 11, 2026.
It was written as the theme song for the drama “Kochira Yobi Jieieiyu Ho?!” directed for the first time by Koji Kato, and it’s drawing attention along with the show’s atmosphere.
You can feel SAKANACTION’s essence right from the intro.
When singing it, pay attention to the contrast and pitch difference when moving from the A melody into the chorus.
The A melody tends to be delivered in vocalist Yamaguchi’s characteristic, almost murmuring style.
But in the chorus, it switches completely to a clear, assertive voice.
This contrast is wonderful, so try to start the chorus with a relaxed body while projecting clearly.
thrillNEW!Hotei Tomoyasu
“Thrill,” also famous as Egashira 2:50’s entrance song.
Released in October 1995 as the fifth single, it’s one of Tomoyasu Hotei’s signature tracks that topped the Oricon chart.
Blending a driving rock sound with pop sensibilities, it enjoyed great popularity as the first release of his solo career after Guitarhythm ended.
You’ll want to avoid stumbling over the well-known opening lyrics.
In particular, the “h” sounds push out a lot of breath and become quite difficult when delivered like a tongue twister, so try singing with a smaller mouth shape to avoid over-enunciating.
Right before the first chorus, in the shout-like section, clearly articulating each word should help your voice come out satisfyingly.
