For men: Tough karaoke songs. We’ve collected tracks that are cool if you can sing them! (41–50)
KanadeSukima Suichi
It was Sukima Switch’s second single, released in March 2004.
In addition to being used as an insert song in the film “Rough,” it secured many other tie-ins.
To sing this song well at karaoke, it’s important to create a contrast between the slightly heartwarming mood of the first half and the powerful delivery from the D section into the final chorus.
Pay attention to how the beat feels in each part of the song as you sing.
Moechakka FireIssei
The song Moechakka Fire is currently a nationwide hit.
It’s one of Issei’s signature tracks, distinguished by its incredibly deep vocals.
The low register dominates most of the piece, reaching pitches that the average male likely can’t produce at all.
While elements like long sustained notes and vibrato are minimal, the work’s simply limited vocal range means only a very small number of people will be able to sing it.
If you’re confident in the depth and richness of your voice, definitely give it a try.
force majeureVaundy
This track was released exclusively for digital distribution on January 22, 2020, and it really gives the impression of “Only Vaundy could sing this!” I think you can broadly divide the song into a calm first half and a second half that really showcases the high notes.
The vocal range is very wide, from A#2 to C5.
In the rap section at the beginning, a relaxed feel is key.
Sing it coolly, but make sure your words are clear so it doesn’t turn into a mumble.
For the high notes starting from the chorus in the second half, lift your facial muscles to prepare, then project your voice as if aiming far into the distance.
Since the high notes keep coming, that burst of momentum is crucial.
When you nail this part, it feels great for both the singer and the listener! Vaundy has many difficult songs, so they’re really worth practicing.
Definitely give it a try!
The night is faintly aglow.EVE
Eve, who enjoys immense popularity in the utaite community, has a strikingly unique voice—sleek and glossy yet somehow childlike.
Among his songs, the one I especially recommend is Yoru wa Honoka.
You might find the falsetto in the chorus challenging, but it isn’t significantly harder than a typical high-range song.
The real tricky part is the low notes right after the chorus; very few male singers can deliver this section with the minimum required volume.
If you’re confident in your falsetto technique and lower register, definitely give it a try.
F.E.A.R.B’z
A hard rock number with that signature B’z flair—defined by its heavy sound and ominous worldview! Just being able to handle B’z at karaoke is already impressive, but if you can really nail this one, you’re basically a rock star.
“F.E.A.R.” spans everything from Inaba’s low spoken parts to high-pitched shouts, demanding both expressive range and precise vocal control.
The guitar riff stands out prominently, so keeping the rhythm of the vocal line steady can be tough.
Also, it’s easy to rely on your throat for the shouts, but that can blow your voice in one go—make sure to engage your vocal cords properly.
Place a finger in the hollow between your collarbones and sing as if you’re projecting the sound from there!
Bling-Bang-Bang-BornCreepy Nuts
One of the biggest hits of 2024, Creepy Nuts’ “Bling-Bang-Bang-Born.” Despite its nationwide popularity, it’s actually a fairly challenging track, featuring complex flows throughout.
To pull it off, you’ll need excellent diction and a strong sense of rhythm.
It goes over great at karaoke, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
If it feels too tough, teaming up with a friend to sing it is a solid option.
NINE LIVESchōtokkyū
They’re releasing a TikTok-linked project called “Episode of NINE LIVES,” a series of short dramas starring each of the nine members.
The limited first-press Blu-ray reportedly includes a director’s cut and behind-the-scenes footage.
It’s a groovy dance tune themed around a nine-member group × “cats have nine lives”! If you can pull it off at karaoke, it’s a guaranteed attention-grabber! You can sing it solo, or split the parts and sing it as a duo—how you approach it makes it even more fun! Within a single track you’ll find ultra-high notes and rap sections; keeping pitch, managing breath control, and handling the relatively fast tempo will test your sense of rhythm.
If you firmly memorize the melody line and focus less on “pushing your voice out” and more on “resonance,” you’ll find it feels great to sing!
