A track included on the 2001 album MESSAGE, which became a massive hit by selling an exceptional 2.8 million copies for an indie release.

It’s also one of their signature songs, and if you’re in your thirties, chances are you know it well.

The song’s appeal lies in its warm, friendly melody and lyrics that resonate with the heart.

It sings about unwavering feelings for someone special and the importance of recognizing the happiness in everyday life, striking a chord with many listeners.

It’s a recommended choice for when you want to liven up a karaoke session or express your feelings to someone important.

Released in November 2008, it became a big hit as an insert song for the drama “Ryusei no Kizuna.” The overall vocal range of the song is fairly wide, from G#3 to D#5, with the chorus’s peak being the highest note.

Mika Nakashima is known for her whispery, breathy tone, so there’s no need to belt.

Since the top note D#5 is quite high, use head voice and send a thin, upward-focused tone.

Imagining your voice being pulled up from above your head may help.

If you lift your eyebrows in time as well, it becomes easier to hit and adds to the vibe.

Once you get used to it, focus on expressiveness to boost your score.

It also helps to gradually increase your volume with each melodic phrase!

Formed by members from the Okinawa Actors School, SPEED is a four-member idol-style dance and vocal group whose sensational debut became a hot topic.

Their fifth single, “White Love,” which became the group’s biggest hit, is a poignant winter song featured in a Shiseido T’ESSERA Angel Drop commercial.

Women in their 30s—the generation that grew up with the group—may find themselves wanting to sing along, recalling the memorable dance performance.

It’s an emotional pop tune perfect for karaoke during the Christmas season, matching beautifully with snowy scenery.

The anime tie-in song performed by Yoko Takahashi, whose charismatic vocals are captivating, tells a grand story of a boy’s growth and his challenge toward a new world.

It’s a compelling track filled with dramatic expression and a determined drive to move forward.

Released in October 1995, the song was used as the opening theme for the TV anime Neon Genesis Evangelion and caused a major sensation.

It consistently ranks high on karaoke popularity charts, making it a song that bridges generations without creating a gap, even in mixed-age gatherings.

It’s a masterpiece that transcends the boundaries of anime songs—one you should definitely sing at karaoke.

As a solo artist, Keisuke Kuwata’s seventh single overall, released in October 2001.

It was used as the song for Coca-Cola’s “No Reason” campaign commercials, in which Kuwata himself appeared, as well as for UNIQLO’s “LifeWear/HEATTECH: Winter Is the Time to Go Outside” commercials.

You could truly call this a staple of late-’90s to early-2000s J-pop.

Many songs from that era are very easy to sing, and this ballad is no exception—it’s something anyone can casually sing and enjoy.

It might even be fun to sing it while doing a Kuwata-style impression, don’t you think?

Marunouchi SadisticShiina Ringo83rank/position

It’s a stylish track where piano tones that color the city night intertwine with a sophisticated band sound.

The lyrics rhythmically list Tokyo station names and musical instruments, and the unique word choices grip listeners and won’t let go.

Included on Ringo Sheena’s album “Muzai Moratorium,” released in February 1999, this song isn’t a single, yet it has earned fervent support among fans.

Its enduring appeal is evident from surpassing 200 million streams in September 2024.

With a relatively low key and a calm melodic line overall, it’s a song you can sing coolly even if high notes are hard for you.

It’s the perfect number for creating a slightly mature atmosphere when you’re at karaoke with friends.

Having a low voice doesn’t mean you can’t produce falsetto at all.

In fact, many people can manage falsetto just fine; it’s just mixed voice that feels harder.

With that in mind, I recommend Hikaru Utada’s classic “Flavor Of Life.” Among Utada’s songs, this one features some of the deepest low notes.

The A melody, which is very low and brimming with allure, will enhance the charm of women in their 30s with low voices.

The chorus brings in falsetto several times, but it’s not extremely high, nor does it require much volume, so if you can produce a normal falsetto, it shouldn’t pose a challenge.
