Ken Hirai Karaoke Popular Songs Ranking [2026] (21–30)
Nevertheless, I want to do it.Hirai Ken29rank/position
A double A-side single that portrays a thrilling, forbidden love where you want to make your crush turn around and notice you.
The music video—shot entirely in Delhi, India—features Ken Hirai dressed as an Indian man, showing off Bollywood dance moves, which became a major talking point.
Viewers have even said it “doesn’t feel out of place.” The lyrics are distinctive, making it a song you can recognize right away.
I think the key is how emotionally you sing the opening of the chorus.
The vocal range isn’t that high, so you might be able to sing it in chest voice.
Once you’re feeling it, belting it out in chest voice instead of falsetto can feel really good.
Make my heartHirai Ken30rank/position
This is the theme song for Doraemon the Movie: Nobita’s Great Adventure in the Antarctic Kachi Kochi, released on March 1, 2017.
It was her first anime theme song, written to evoke the bond between Doraemon and Nobita—a touching medium ballad that resonates with the heart.
The accompaniment is piano throughout, and if you sing without rushing, the tempo shouldn’t run.
Since it’s basically sung gently, lightly resonating in the nose and head as if you were humming will suit the atmosphere perfectly.
When humming, use plenty of breath as if you’re humming a tune.
Be careful not to produce the sound in your throat, as that will turn into a throaty voice.

I will fall in love with you.Hirai Ken31rank/position
Boku wa Kimi ni Koi wo Suru is a straightforward, heartfelt song sung to a beloved person you’ll no longer be able to meet.
Released in 2009, it was used as the theme song for the film I Give My First Love to You.
Although the message is passionate, the melody is relaxed, making it easy to sing.
The chorus is a bit high in key while the other parts are relatively low, so be careful when setting the key.
That said, if you adjust the key properly, it’s a song that’s easy for anyone to try, regardless of gender.
Things I like about youHirai Ken32rank/position
An overflowing-with-love number that openly and honestly sings about the parts of a beloved person that feel so dear, “Kimi no Suki na Tokoro.” Released in 2007, this song was chosen as the theme for the TV drama “Enka no Joou.” With its homey atmosphere and lyrics that plainly paint easily imaginable scenes, it offers listeners a gentle moment.
The melody flows in a relaxed and calm way, making it easy to get into even for those not used to singing.
Please try singing it with a kind heart.
confessionHirai Ken33rank/position
Confession is a song that sets dark love to a striking melody.
Released in 2012, it was used as the theme song for the drama W no Higeki (W’s Tragedy).
Its melody is somewhat challenging, with parts that move back and forth between high and low notes.
Overall, it sits in the mid-to-high range, making it easier to sing for women and for men who are comfortable with higher vocals.
Listen closely to the melody and try to capture the pitch changes as you sing.
Before our feelings overlap…Hirai Ken34rank/position
From the very beginning, Ken Hirai’s beautiful singing voice resonates in this song.
It’s a 2004 track that was used in a TOYOTA Corolla Fielder commercial and also served as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “The Truth of Tsugumi Kuzushi.” The lyrics make it a ballad that feels both like singing and like speaking to someone, so it’s a song you can really get into and sing calmly.
I often point out Ken Hirai’s singing characteristics to my students, so please use them as a reference! First, while it’s memorable that he sings with his eyes closed, in reality, closing your eyes can cause unnecessary tension and make it harder to stay on pitch.
However, Hirai raises his eyebrows and uses his hand to track the pitch while he sings.
He compensates in other ways so that singing becomes more natural and easier.
This gesture also makes it much easier to produce falsetto, so definitely give it a try!
KikyogaokaHirai Ken35rank/position
Kikyogaoka is a song written from the perspective of parents.
Released digitally in 2013, it was featured in a Misawa Homes commercial.
The title, Kikyogaoka, is the name of a place in Mie Prefecture, where Ken Hirai is from, and the music video was also filmed there.
It’s a heartwarming track that makes you imagine, “This is probably how my parents feel about me.” With its gentle melody and relatively modest vocal range, it’s also easy to sing at karaoke.
