Hype karaoke songs men should sing at mixers (21–30)
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.
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.
SufferOkazaki Taiiku
Male singer-songwriter Taiiku Okazaki, who has gained popularity with his unique lyrics and catchy melodies.
He’s also highly popular among male listeners and has produced many classic songs, but among them, “Suffer” is especially recommended.
For an Okazaki song, it’s unusual in that it’s rooted in punk rock, featuring melodies that lean toward hardcore punk within the punk genre.
Assuming you sing it full-throttle with some shouts mixed in, it’s a perfect pick for karaoke among male friends.
NINE LIVESchōtokkyū
This is a dance number by Choutokkyuu released on September 24, 2025.
The song’s theme is the proverb “A cat has nine lives,” and it features lots of cat-related words.
Choutokkyuu often has songs with high vocals, but NINE LIVES isn’t one that keeps pushing into ultra-high notes, so once you lock into the rhythm, it should be pretty singable! Since it’s a twin-vocal track, there may be spots where singing solo is tricky timing-wise, but the song’s vibe is super cool, so definitely use it to hype up the karaoke room! In general, you can get a strong, steady tone if you resonate in both your head and chest; try placing a hand on your chest to feel that chest resonance as you sing.
By the way, TAKASHI, Choutokkyuu’s vocalist, raises his eyebrows quite a lot when he sings.
It also makes it easier to hit the right pitches, so give it a try!
STAY GOLDHi-STANDARD
The top of the Japanese melodic hardcore scene! It’s a legendary masterpiece by Hi-STANDARD, who helped raise WANIMA—now a major star with a recent new album and even a Kohaku appearance! Whether you go to karaoke with friends from the scene or with friends who don’t know it, chances are many have heard this at least once! If you want to turn a karaoke box into a live house, this is the song to do it.
STAY TUNESuchmos
If you’re getting a bit tired of overly flashy club tracks, how about this as a curveball—especially for girls who seem a little hesitant about club music? Without leaning too hard into Black-style hip-hop, this cool dance number will definitely get people moving and is guaranteed to hype up the crowd.
KICK BACKYonezu Kenshi
For men in their teens and twenties, Kenshi Yonezu is a go-to artist.
He has a wide musical range, but if you’re looking for something that really gets the crowd going, KICK BACK is perfect.
Released as the theme song for the popular anime Chainsaw Man, it’s memorable for its impactful chorus and delivers an exceptional hype despite its slightly fast tempo.
Above all, the near-scream vocal line right before the final chorus—paired with the music video’s scene of being run over by a truck—has made it especially popular.
My Past Life, Many Lifetimes AgoRADWIMPS
Whether you’ve seen the movie or not.
If you’re into rockin’ on, or into subculture.
I don’t think there are many people who dislike it.
It’s on the latest hit charts, and everyone’s excitement hasn’t cooled yet—so let’s all sing it together at karaoke!
One Night CarnivalKishidan
The major-label debut from Kishidan, a rock band hailing from Chiba, fuses a fiery heartbeat with a catchy pop melody line.
With their unique style of school uniforms and pompadours, and high-energy tunes packed with passionate messages, they powerfully express the rebellious spirit of youth and a yearning for freedom.
Originally released independently in June 2001, the work sold 80,000 copies, and its major-label edition in May 2002 reached No.
7 on the Oricon chart.
With relatable, down-to-earth lyrics and an exhilarating sound, it’s perfect for when you need a boost or a refreshing change of pace.
CITY LIGHTSandymori
Although they’ve already disbanded, andymori was a band that commanded tremendous support in the so-called Rockin’ On scene and certain circles of the band community.
This track has a great tempo and an exhilarating, driving feel, so it’s sure to get the crowd going.
With its intelligent lyrics and distinctive vocal delivery, it’s a song that will captivate even first-time listeners.
