Men (91–100)
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!
budKobukuro
Kobukuro’s “Tsubomi” is quite a masterpiece, isn’t it? It’s a song I’d love to hear sung either solo or as a duo.
Since Kobukuro is a duo, the vocal range is fairly wide—A#2 to A#4—but Kuroda’s parts are quite low, so if you’re singing as a pair, taking Kuroda’s part might work well! By the way, when I sang this song with a male partner, I had him handle the entire melody while I stuck to the harmonies.
The harmonies in this song are beautiful, so if you have a partner, definitely try tackling the harmony parts too.
Overall, try to sing it with a calm, restrained feel so it doesn’t turn into belting.
Men (101–110)
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!
Don’t avert your eyes.DEEN
The fifth single by the Japanese rock/pop band DEEN, released in June 1994.
At the time, it was used in a commercial for Otsuka Pharmaceutical’s Pocari Sweat.
The 1990s, when this song came out, were truly the golden age of J-pop, with million-selling hits released one after another.
One key to boosting sales back then was how easy a song was to sing at karaoke.
“Hitomi Sorasanaide,” which we’re featuring here, is no exception: it’s built around a very memorable, easy-to-sing melody that suits just about anyone.
If you’re unsure what to pick, definitely give this one a try.
Singing it casually, as if you’re humming along without trying too hard, is the best way to make it sound good.
Day Life (feat. iri)TAIKING
TAIKING, known as the guitarist for the popular neo-soul band Suchmos, is also active as a solo artist and has earned high acclaim in the industry for his refined musical sensibilities.
The collaborative track with female R&B singer iri, Day Life (feat.
iri), is a standout example.
Although it features a female vocal, the melody sits low and calm enough that men can sing it comfortably as well.
If you sing with a strong sense of groove, the vibe will elevate dramatically—give it a try.
Souls feat. suis from YorushikaWurtS
Singer-songwriter WurtS, who draws attention for his sophisticated musicality and even his ventures into video production, is a multi-talented artist.
Here is his collaboration with suis, known as the vocalist of Yorushika: “Souls feat.
suis from Yorushika.” The song is arranged predominantly in the low to mid range throughout, so the vocal range is narrow and it’s easy for women to sing as well.
The vocal line doesn’t have drastic pitch changes either, making it a straightforward and easy song to sing.
Be sure to add it to your repertoire.
