Top 10 high-energy karaoke songs men should sing at mixers (1–10)
KanadeSukima Suichi
This is the second single by Sukima Switch, released in March 2004.
Featured as an insert song in the film “Rough,” among many other tie-ins, this gem of a ballad portrays parting, growth, and the bonds that continue through music.
In 2006, it was also used as the ending theme for the final day of “Nettou Koshien,” and is widely known as a song symbolizing youthful farewells.
With its relaxed tempo, it’s easy to sing and is a classic that almost everyone has heard, making it perfect for humming along with others at karaoke.
If you can handle the leaps in pitch and the falsetto in the chorus, there are plenty of satisfying moments—an evergreen crowd-pleaser that’s sure to be a hit even at group hangouts.
SaudadePorunogurafiti
This song, whose title means “nostalgia” in Portuguese, is a heartrending love ballad that deliberately uses feminine speech to depict the protagonist’s complex feelings at the end of a romance.
While accepting the breakup, it poignantly sings of lingering attachment and memories that remain deep in the heart, expressing down-to-earth emotions anyone can relate to.
Released in 2000, it reached a personal best of No.
1 on the weekly Oricon chart and became Porno Graffitti’s first million seller.
It features some slightly rapid-fire sections and a key change in the latter half, but its Latin-flavored sound is easy to groove to and makes it a crowd-pleaser for karaoke.
A melody instead of a bouquetShimizu Shota
Released in October 2015 as Shota Shimizu’s 20th single, this song was chosen as the theme for NHK’s Drama 10 series “Designer Baby: Detective Hayami’s Tough Case Before Maternity Leave.” The lyrics express a desire to convey love not through tangible things like bouquets or embraces, but through melody and voice.
It drew attention again in 2021 when it was performed on THE FIRST TAKE.
With a friendly melody line and a comfortable vocal range, it’s also easy to sing at karaoke.
It’s the perfect song to lift the mood with a gentle, soothing atmosphere.

Mega Lover of LoveMakishimamu Za Horumon
Horumon is most famous for this song, right? I feel like even the so-called death growl got trendy for a while because of it.
You could choose to power through and sing this whole song solo.
Women will be put off.
Men will call you a hero.
Even if they don’t, you can convince yourself you’re a hero.
Bloodshot your eyes and sing it with a wild look on your face.
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!
poofKing Gnu
King Gnu is a band that has gained popularity for its highly original musicality.
While they have many tastefully crafted songs, they’re also known for having plenty of difficult ones.
Among their catalog, the track I especially recommend is Doron.
Known as the theme song for the film “Stolen Identity 2,” it has a gritty atmosphere and a fairly wide vocal range from mid1 A# to hi A#.
On top of that, the melodic leaps up and down are quite intense, but the most challenging parts are the chorus and the C section.
When the chorus and C section hit, the tempo jumps up all at once, leaving few breathing points; combined with the sharp rises and falls in pitch, it makes nailing the intonation extremely difficult.
Old-fashionedback number
Released in November 2018 as the 19th single, this song was newly written as the theme for the TBS Friday drama “A Big Love: With You Who Forget Me.” It’s a gem of a love song that layers the miracle of an unexpected encounter and the memories that remain after parting with a lover onto the small, everyday motif of a donut.
The lyrics heighten the poignancy as they shift from a complementary relationship—“you had everything I was missing”—to a sense of loss recounted in the past tense.
Set at a mid-tempo pace, the melody should be easy to sing at karaoke!
