Karaoke songs to sing in the morning (1–10)
New EraNulbarich
This karaoke song by Nulbarich, a new-generation band drawing attention for their fusion-funk flavor, features invigorating guitar sounds and vocals that evoke a pleasant feeling.
It’s a stylish, sophisticated track that creates an atmosphere making you want to sing it in the morning for a refreshing start.
Joyfulikimonogakari
For a morning wake-up song, my top pick would be “Joyful.” From the intro, it kicks off at high energy and keeps that level all the way to the finish.
Blast it on your commute—whether on the train or in the car—and it just might boost your motivation.
breakfastMrs. GREEN APPLE
Released on June 4, 2025 and used as the theme song for Fuji TV’s “Sun! Shine,” the track centers on themes of “new beginnings,” “hope,” and “starting over.” It’s the kind of song that makes you feel refreshed and helps reset your mood.
The vocal range is fairly wide at C3–F#5, but if you’re comfortable with falsetto, it should be relatively easy to sing.
The overall rhythm has a bouncy feel, so try lightly singing while keeping time with your hands up and down like “1-2-1-2,” and generally aim your hands upward as if you’re watching a live performance.
Moving your whole body in the same way will also make it easier to sing.
Since the transitions between chest voice and falsetto are clearly defined in this song, you’ll be fine as long as you commit to your voice without hesitation!
Full driveKANA-BOON
A karaoke song by KANA-BOON, a rising band drawing attention for their sophisticated artistry and catchy melodic sense.
With a smooth musicality imbued with a distinctly morning-friendly feel, this work unfailingly stirs the heart.
crimsonX JAPAN
This is a song I’d recommend to people who feel hazy in the morning or are stressed out from the start of the day.
I’m not sure if it’s really appropriate to recommend it (lol), but if you listen to this song in the morning, it might not only wake you up—it could blow away all sorts of hang-ups.
The fatigue that follows is something else, though.
I’m a believerSPYAIR
The rapidly rising band has highly message-driven lyrics and the power to move listeners’ emotions directly.
SPYAIR is one such band.
Chosen to perform the theme song for the anime Haikyu!!, they’ve continued to release many hit numbers since.
Full-Power BoySukima Suichi
A refreshing, brisk summer song from Sukima Switch.
While they’re often known for emotive ballads, they can, of course, deliver upbeat tracks too.
Since it’s been featured across many media tie-ins, the catchy chorus really sticks in your head.
