[For Men] These Songs Will Make You a Better Singer! Effective Tracks for Karaoke Practice (71–80)
Wind GodVaundy
Vaundy’s new song “Fujin.” Since it’s also the theme song for the TBS drama “Lion’s Hideout,” many of you may already know it.
The real charm of this track is, above all, its groove.
The chorus feels very J-pop, but the A and B sections resemble neo-soul—a genre that blends soul with hip-hop, jazz, and funk.
Because this genre places a strong emphasis on a sense of groove that isn’t typically associated with Japanese music, singing a track like this, with those strong elements, can help you develop a groove akin to that of foreign artists.
MelissaPorunogurafiti
Porno Graffitti is a musical duo that remains hugely popular even today.
Many men, in particular, may feel like singing their songs.
Among their tracks, the one I especially recommend is Melissa.
It’s a piece with a striking, sharp chorus that carries a slight Latin flavor.
The A and B sections have a breezy rock feel, and the contrast between them creates a distinctive atmosphere.
budKobukuro
Kobukuro’s “Tsubomi” is also a truly great song, and I highly recommend singing it whether you’re solo or a duo.
Since Kobukuro is a duo, the range is fairly wide at A#2–A#4, and Kuroda’s part goes quite low.
If you’re singing as a pair, taking Kuroda’s part might be a good option! By the way, when I used to sing this song with a male partner, I left all the melody lines to him and settled into the harmony myself.
The harmonies in this song are wonderful, so if you have a partner, definitely try tackling the harmony too! Overall, aim for a calm vibe and avoid belting.

JourneyFuji Kaze
Fujii Kaze’s “Tabiji” is also a song one of my students practiced, and it’s a great pick for low male voices.
The overall range is B2–G#4, with the verses sitting quite low and the range gradually rising toward the chorus.
If the chorus feels high, try imitating Fujii Kaze’s gentle singing style from the start; using a breathy tone can make it relatively easier to sing.
It’s a straightforward piece for practice, so try singing it with the feeling of gradually building momentum!
Fake Love and HighballLET ME KNOW
LET ME KNOW is a Japanese band currently gaining attention in South Korea.
Known for their nostalgic sound, they’ve been drawing notice across Asia—especially in Korea and Japan—with songs that evoke the 1980s.
Among their tracks, a standout recommendation is “Fake Love and Highball.” This piece features smooth-jazz–style chord progressions paired with a refreshing vocal line reminiscent of 1980s city pop.
While it isn’t particularly difficult to perform, it relies heavily on dynamics and contrast, making it a great choice for those looking to hone their expressive skills.
Yume YumeONE OK ROCK
I think ONE OK ROCK is a band that every guy admires.
I’m always thinking, “If I’m going to be in a band, I want to play ONE OK ROCK!” but the reality is, it’s hard to find someone who can sing in that key.
That said, their song ‘Yume Yume’ has a vocal range of E3 to C5, and it doesn’t hit high notes repeatedly, so I think many people can sing it.
However, it has more rap parts than singing, so you might struggle with those when learning it.
Try changing the playback speed on YouTube and practice by following the lyrics slowly.
If you can pull it off, it’ll go over really well at karaoke! It’s definitely worth having at least one ONE OK ROCK song in your repertoire.
A gaze is lightKitanitatsuya
Singer-songwriter Tatsuya Kitani, who enjoys overwhelming support from young listeners.
He’s an artist known for many inventive phrases, and even though “Manazashi wa Hikari” ultimately comes together as orthodox pop, he slips in a Japanese-style phrase right before the chorus.
The song spans a slightly wide range from mid1 C# to hi B, but the hi B parts are in a light falsetto, so even those who struggle with head voice can sing it.
The more challenging spots are actually around hi A, so if you set your key with that as the focal point, you can expect a vocal that really soars at the climax.
