Male (81–90)
YOKAZEHentai Shinshi Kurabu
For men, I think hip-hop numbers like this are easy to sing in your natural voice! “YOKAZE” is a track by the three-member music unit Hentai Shinshi Club.
It’s included on their first album, “ZURUMUKE,” released in 2020.
The city-tinged track and mellow flow are calming.
The lyrics, which make you feel like “It’s okay to fail—let’s live true to ourselves,” are emotionally resonant.
It might be a good song to sing when you want to reset your mood.
You can keep liking me.sutopuri
“Sukide Ite Kurete Ii yo,” included on the album Strawberry Next! produced by the internet-based entertainment group Strawberry Prince (SutoPuri) in 2020.
It’s a colorful pop song written and composed by Vocaloid producer DECO*27.
Each SutoPuri member sings within their own vocal range, so try finding the version that matches your range.
The bright, catchy melody is truly moving.
Why not show off this charming, cute song at karaoke?
protagonistSUPER BEAVER
Since the song starts abruptly without an intro, make sure to articulate the opening words clearly and come in without hesitation! The overall vocal range of “Shujinkou” is D#3–G#4, so it should be easy to sing for lower-voiced women once you grasp the key points.
In the chorus, when you count the rhythm in 4/4, the accents fall on beats 1 and 3.
For example, while listening to the song, try clapping while saying “1-2-3-4, 1-2-3-4.” Once you get used to it, try clapping more strongly on “1.” If the timing feels natural and easy to clap, that’s the accent.
That sensation is what you want—so when you sing, make sure to project your voice on those accented parts! Let’s use our bodies like this and have fun singing!
JingleYuuma
Yuma, who is active as the “good singer” of the YouTuber group Comdot, has a song called Jingle that my students often sang when their throats weren’t in great condition, saying, “It’s easy to sing!” The vocal range of Jingle is B2–D#4, staying mostly in the low to mid range.
Of course, it builds from verse A to verse B to the chorus, but unlike other songs, the range doesn’t change that much, so it might be easier to keep pitch.
It’s a perfect song for winter, so give it a try in your practice!
Lost itemKitanitatsuya
Compared to his high notes, Tatsuya Kitani gives a stronger impression with his lower range, doesn’t he? He has a signature song called “Ao no Sumika,” but in fact, the new song “Nakushimono” has a narrower range and might be easier for low-voice male singers to sing in chest voice.
There are a few higher parts in the chorus, but falsetto works just fine there.
Just note that the last chorus modulates and goes up by a whole step.
If you can get through that section when you sing, you’ll be golden—so add some momentum and let your voice out!
Straight Up feat. JESSEDragon Ash
Dragon Ash is a band that was hugely active from the 1990s through the 2000s.
They had a major impact on hip-hop in the mainstream scene and still enjoy a strong following today.
The track where Dragon Ash collaborates with JESSE—known as the vocalist of RIZE and The BONEZ—is Straight Up feat.
JESSE.
Since the song is crafted as a Western-style rock track with a lot of English, it might feel challenging.
However, the actual vocal line has a narrow range and is quite simple, so the vocal difficulty is surprisingly low.
While you do need to sing with a somewhat loud, powerful delivery, most male singers should be able to perform it without changing the key.
Men (91–100)
Future is YoursSambomasutā
This is Sambomaster’s 23rd single, released in August 2023.
It was selected as the theme song for the animated film “New Dimension! Crayon Shin-chan THE MOVIE: Super-Powered Showdown — Fly, Fly, Hand-Rolled Sushi.” It’s a straightforward rock song that’s quintessentially Sambomaster—just listening to it puts you in a great mood! You don’t need any complicated pointers to sing this at karaoke! Just have a blast with the sheer act of singing and letting your voice out.
It’s not a track that showcases a low ‘ikebo’ voice, but there aren’t any extreme high notes either, so even those who struggle with high registers can still sing and enjoy it.
If you try aiming your voice toward your upper palate as you sing, your mid-to-high notes should gain more resonance and presence—give it a shot if you like.
