Speaking of GLAY’s songs, they span from energetic numbers to moving ballads, and many are easy to sing at karaoke—so it can be tough to choose.

If you want to share a touching moment across generations at a work karaoke with your boss, their signature ballad released in August 1997 is a great pick.

This majestic, stirring track conveys unwavering devotion to a loved one and a strong determination for the two to overcome any hardship together.

TERU’s emotive vocals further elevate the tender yet warm message.

It topped the Oricon charts, sold over a million copies, and was later used as the ending theme for a TBS drama, so many people are sure to recognize it.

As a timeless love song cherished across generations, it’s sure to create a warm atmosphere.

This is a staple song for live shows, and TAKURO has said he wanted it to be a “trigger to fire things up” on stage! Right from the intro drums and guitar riff, your energy shoots up.

The overall vocal range is D#3 to C#5—there are high notes, but it’s a rhythm-friendly rock tune, so if you sing out boldly without hesitation, you’ll likely hit those highs.

The flow goes from a relatively calm delivery in the A and B sections to an explosive chorus, and even a rough, raw singing style will look and sound cool! Just be careful not to overstrain your voice in the chorus.

The key is to resonate through your body—place a hand on your chest and let your chest voice ring out comfortably.

BELOVEDGLAY3rank/position

GLAY’s “BELOVED,” known as a karaoke classic, resonates with a uniquely emotive melody.

It’s perfect for middle-aged men to express restrained feelings directly and rekindle the passionate memories of their youth.

Skillfully highlighting TERU’s high notes will liven up the atmosphere even more, and taking on that challenge tends to boost favorability with women.

That said, be mindful of the song’s high vocal range; adjusting the key can make it easier to sing.

With lyrics that strike the heart and an energetic appeal, “BELOVED” is beloved across generations.

If you’re unsure what to pick for karaoke, you can’t go wrong with this timeless hit.

Winter, againGLAY4rank/position

Released in 1999, this song by GLAY paints a wintry scene filled with nostalgia.

Its intro—said to be inspired by the theme song from the film Titanic—is especially memorable.

Chosen as the campaign song for JR East’s “JR SKI SKI,” it became a winter anthem for many.

The lyrics reflect TAKURO’s desire to showcase the landscapes of his home, Hokkaido.

Known across generations, it’s sure to get the crowd going at karaoke, especially after New Year gatherings.

Why not add it to your repertoire as a song to brighten long winter nights?

A person who loves springGLAY5rank/position

A gem of a ballad born from the inspiration of witnessing people endure Iceland’s harsh winter while longing for spring.

It poetically depicts the changing of the seasons and human emotions, and its heartwarming melody—woven by delicate piano tones and the band’s dynamic groove—leaves a strong impression.

Included on the album “BELOVED,” released in November 1996, this GLAY number also gained popularity the following year as the B-side to the single “Kuchibiru,” and has been featured on numerous classic releases, including the best-of album “DRIVE-GLAY complete BEST.” It’s a song we especially recommend to those who, while awaiting the arrival of spring, hold dear the feelings they have for someone special.

SOUL LOVEGLAY7rank/position

The 14th single “SOUL LOVE,” used as the campaign song for Kanebo’s “Bronze Love ’98 Summer,” is a popular track that became a million seller—even though it was completed in just 10 minutes at the staff’s request.

The overall key is low and the melody is simple, making it easy to sing, but be careful with the high notes that appear in the latter half of the chorus, as they’re easy to go off pitch.

It has a comfortable beat and feels great to sing, so consider adding it to your karaoke repertoire.
