Kirinji's Most Popular Karaoke Songs Ranking [2026] (1–10)
Amber-Hued City, Morning of Shanghai Crabskururi1rank/position
This is the title track of an EP released in July 2016 by Quruli, a band from Kyoto, marking their 20th anniversary.
The sound wraps you in a dreamy, mellow urban vibe, with a melodic approach that incorporates elements of hip-hop and R&B.
The lyrics evoke the loneliness of the city, yet open up the scenery all at once in the chorus, giving it a story-like pop quality.
When you want to take a breather, let yourself sink into its relaxed groove.

Among men in their 40s who were into Japanese rock, Quruli likely left a strong impression.
Unlike other J-rock bands, many were captivated by their music’s emphasis on a distinct worldview.
Of all Quruli’s songs, the one I especially recommend is Bara no Hana (Rose Flower).
This track is characterized by an ennui-tinged musical style, with a correspondingly calm and composed vocal line.
While it does feature a fair number of sustained notes, it doesn’t demand much vocal power, so there’s no need to worry too much.
Consider adding it to your repertoire.
La Palummellakururi3rank/position
Quruli is a band that has enjoyed long-lasting popularity thanks to its music brimming with originality.
With each step in their career, they’ve taken on songs that incorporate genres beyond rock, consistently releasing tracks unlike any other.
Their new song, La Palummella, is characterized by a decadent melody and a vocal line built around repetition.
While the pitch movement is gentle, the range is somewhat wide, so for those who feel uncertain about their vocal range, singing the high parts an octave lower is recommended.
Sun of Lovekururi4rank/position
A single by Quruli released in March 2023.
It was pre-released in February and was also chosen as the theme song for the Netflix film “Call Me Chihiro.” It’s a simple, medium-tempo pop-rock song that’s very easy to groove to.
The vocal melody line is also very straightforward and easy to hum, so it should be relatively manageable for anyone to shoot for a perfect 100 at karaoke.
Listen closely to the original, study where to sustain notes, where to cut them off, and how to do so, and give that perfect score a try.
BIRTHDAYkururi5rank/position
How about singing this song when you go to karaoke with your partner on your birthday? It’s an upbeat pop tune, so it’s sure to liven things up.
The lyrics also carry a strong message, so it might even move someone to tears.
Reguluskururi6rank/position
This is a single released on October 10, 2025, available exclusively for download and streaming.
For this ‘Regulus,’ Ayaka Tatono from Homecomings participates as a guest vocalist.
It’s been described as having a mood that suits the season from autumn into winter, with a theme that gently supports “the courage to take on challenges” and “dreams that haven’t faded yet.” The distinctive “myooon” sound at the start is very Kururi-like, isn’t it? (laughs) The overall range isn’t very high, so there’s no need to belt out high notes.
If possible, it would be great to sing it as a male–female pair! In that case, if both of you sing quietly, it will match the atmosphere of the song well.
Remember mekururi7rank/position
This song was used as the theme for NHK’s “Family History.” It’s perfect not only as a graduation song, but also as a send-off for children leaving the nest or friends moving far away.
Above all, it’s astonishing how deeply a music video made with nothing but a pencil and eraser shavings can resonate.
