[Men] Popular Karaoke Rankings [2026]

Omoinotake | Hundreds of Millions of Light-Years [Official Music Video]

Released on February 28, 2024, this song became an explosive hit, and many vocal students practiced it in lessons! The overall range is A#3 to F#5, which is typical for a female artist, but I think it’s singable for pre-voice-change males as well.

Of course, those who are good with high notes will also find it approachable, but since it stays high right from the start, sustaining that level is crucial.

In any case, focus on deep diaphragmatic breathing, resonating in the same placement, and maintaining strong core awareness—you should be able to make it through at least the first verse.

I also recommend starting softly in falsetto at first.

Maximum reachSEKAI NO OWARI37rank/position

SEKAI NO OWARI “Highest Altitude”

An anthem cheering on those who keep challenging themselves, turning weakness into strength and aiming higher.

Released in September 2023, this song was written specifically as the opening theme for the anime ONE PIECE.

Its appeal lies in SEKAI NO OWARI’s distinctive, imaginative world: a driving, exhilarating melody, grand strings, and a marching-style arrangement inserted midway.

The vocal range is relatively compact at mid1 F to mid2 F# (m1F–m2F#), so with a key adjustment, it should be quite singable even for kids around the voice-changing stage.

Its positive message about charging toward your dreams is sure to fire up the room when sung with friends at karaoke.

Fujifabric – Youth of Everything

It’s a hidden gem by Fujifabric that captures the melancholy of summer’s end and the sparkle of youth slipping away.

Lines like “When the last fireworks are over, will we change?” convey that inexpressible mix of anxiety and hope for the future, tightening the listener’s chest.

Released in November 2007 as an advance single from the album TEENAGER, the song was also featured as insert music in the drama SUMMER NUDE.

Its somewhat nostalgic melody will create a tender, emotional unity when sung at karaoke with peers.

Why not try it when you want to gently mellow the mood?

Kenshi Yonezu – Peace Sign

This is a song by Kenshi Yonezu that stirs the heart with its powerful vocals and exhilarating sound.

Produced in June 2017 as the opening theme for the first cour of Season 2 of the Yomiuri TV–affiliated anime “My Hero Academia,” it resonates with the desire to become stronger on nights spent crying over one’s own inadequacy, and with the resolve to become a hero to protect someone important.

The contrast between high and low registers carefully expresses emotional shifts, so when singing, it’s best to pay attention not only to pitch but also to dynamics and phrasing.

RADWIMPS – Aloof [Official Music Video]

RADWIMPS wrote “Sokkenai” as the theme song for the dating reality show “Okami-kun ni wa Damasarenai” (“Don’t Be Fooled by the Wolf”).

The song portrays the romantic push-and-pull and the wavering of emotions that unfold in the show.

Its melody is simple, centered around the piano.

This not only expresses emotional delicacy but also serves to highlight Yojiro Noda’s vocals.

As a result, singing it at karaoke should allow you to deliver a clearer vocal performance.

However, the vocal range is relatively narrow, so the overall difficulty shouldn’t be high.

sumika / Wish [Music Video]

Sumika is a four-piece rock band.

Their song “Negai” (Wish) was written as the theme song for the drama Ossan’s Love – in the sky -.

Thanks to the show’s popularity, many people have probably heard it.

The song captures the aching feelings of unrequited love that really tug at the heart.

The sound isn’t just rock; it also incorporates pop elements.

Because of that, it’s easy to listen to and approachable, including for female listeners.

It would be great to be able to sing with the same powerful voice as the vocalist, Kenta Kataoka.

I LOVE…Ofisharu Higedan Dism42rank/position

Official HIGE DANDism – I LOVE… [Official Video]

A song that delicately portrays the feelings of a protagonist who struggles to convey their love to someone dear.

Released in February 2020 as the theme song for the TBS drama “Love Lasts Forever” (Koi wa Tsuzuku yo Doko Made mo).

It features Official HIGE DANDism’s signature polished sound and emotionally rich vocals in perfect harmony, gently embracing not only romantic love but also friendship, familial love, and every form of affection.

For this piece, it’s recommended to sing with a gentle, warm tone while valuing emotional expression.

By infusing the performance with the frustration of not being able to fully express one’s feelings and the pure affection for the other person, it will surely resonate with listeners.
