For Men: Difficult Karaoke Songs. A collection of tracks that are cool if you can sing them! (71–80)
Wind GodVaundy
Vaundy’s new song “Fujin.” It’s an impressive piece with a decadent melody, and the A and B sections are arranged with a touch of neo-soul.
The trickiest part to sing is, above all, the drastic jumps in pitch.
Just when you think it’ll stay in chest voice, a suddenly very high falsetto comes in, demanding exceptional pitch control.
If you’re confident with Black music styles like R&B and neo-soul, definitely give this track a try.
Disco BabyTravis Japan
A danceable practice track that rebuilds the glitter of 70s disco with a modern twist.
Its sense of tempo, rhythm, and groove make it perfect for sharpening your expressiveness and performance skills for karaoke! The song’s range is D3 to A#4, which should be comfortable for many male singers.
The tempo is a brisk 124 BPM, and it’s the kind of song that naturally gets your body moving as you sing.
Of course, pitch matters too, but if you’re not confident with uptempo songs, the key is to relax and enjoy riding the rhythm! The lyrics are on the dense side, so it might be best to first learn the melody thoroughly by humming or using “la,” and then fit the lyrics in afterward.
All’s well that ends well.kocchi no kento
This is a song released on April 8, 2025, created as the opening theme for the TV anime “Vigilante: My Hero Academia ILLEGALS.” It’s an up-tempo rock number that depicts a hero’s inner conflict and rebirth, making it a perfect karaoke practice song for improving rhythm, diction, and emotional expression! The real challenge is how well you can memorize the lyrics and keep up with the tempo.
As you listen, you’ll notice that Kento sings quite clearly and crisply, right? Not everything is delivered crisply, of course—this is where contrast and dynamics come into play.
First, I’d like you to feel the beat by clapping your hands or moving your body, and think about where to place the accents to make it easier to sing.
I recommend accenting the downbeat—the first beat.
1991Yonezu Kenshi
‘1991,’ a masterpiece by Kenshi Yonezu known as the theme song for the film ‘5 Centimeters per Second.’ The lyrics, which seem to mirror both the protagonist and Yonezu himself, are highly emotional and have made the song popular at karaoke.
The piece spans a fairly wide vocal range of mid1F to hiD.
While the average pitch isn’t particularly high, the large jumps in melody make the song feel quite demanding overall.
It also features mixed voice, but since it’s a chest-leaning mix, people with an average vocal range should be able to manage it with practice.
Bye-Bye to youUVERworld
Speaking of UVERworld’s songs, they tend to stay in the high register throughout.
This track, too, keeps high notes from start to finish, and the pitch moves up and down quite a lot, so if you’re not used to singing high, there’s a concern you might end up straining your throat.
The high note that pops up at the end of the chorus jumps to a C5, so it might be good to start by practicing just that part to hit it explosively.
To produce a powerful voice like vocalist TAKUYA∞, you need solid core support! If your body wobbles while riding a train or bus, it means your lower abdomen (tanden) isn’t engaged.
That will make your singing waver too, so try singing with firm strength in your lower abdomen.
It’s a difficult song, so don’t rush—practice steadily!
DarlingMrs. GREEN APPLE
Mrs.
GREEN APPLE’s digital-only single “Darling,” their first release of 2025, is a grand ballad that makes extensive use of strings.
Ballads are, by nature, a test of a singer’s true ability, and for Motoki Omori—whose vocal prowess is exceptional—it’s the perfect stage to showcase his strengths.
The melody line leverages high-level techniques to the fullest, including a wide vocal range, natural vibrato, seamless command of mixed voice, and exquisite volume control, making it very challenging.
The difficulty is especially high in the section before the final chorus, where the pitch rises step by step.
If you’re confident in your skills, definitely give it a try.
CENTER OF UNIVERSEMr.Children
CENTER OF UNIVERSE is a slow-tempo rock track that’s very popular among fans.
Its vocal range is wide, from mid1C to hiA, with a notably low lower register.
The chorus sits at the lowest part, but since the song itself feels bright, you need to project well even in the low range.
The rapid-fire section at the end of the chorus demands endurance in the throat, so be careful not to over-open your throat in the low notes and strain yourself.
While many Mr.Children songs are known for their high melodies, this one is challenging for its low notes, so if you have a deeper voice, definitely give it a try.
