Kenshi Yonezu – Lemon

A song released in March 2018 as Kenshi Yonezu’s eighth single.

Written specifically as the theme for the TBS drama “Unnatural,” it has set an astonishing record with over 900 million views on YouTube.

The lyrics, which express feelings for a loved one who has been lost, portray the pain of bereavement and the bittersweetness of living on while carrying memories of that person, resonating deeply with listeners.

Its bouncy shuffle beat and dynamic melody make it quite challenging to sing at karaoke, but that only heightens the sense of accomplishment when you pull it off.

It’s a masterpiece that’s perfect for creating a reflective mood or livening up the room with a well-known classic.

Official HIGE DANDism – Pretender [Official Video]

This is the second single by Official HIGE DANDism, released in 2019.

It was written as the theme song for the film The Confidence Man JP: Episode of the Romance and has become widely recognized as a signature song for the band.

The lyrics portray the sorrow of an unrequited love, realistically expressing the pain of a relationship that cannot come true despite deep affection for the other person.

The protagonist’s yearning for a different meeting under different circumstances—and the struggle to accept the reality that it won’t happen—really hits home.

The beautiful piano melody and dramatic sound further amplify those emotions.

It’s the perfect song for anyone who’s experienced heartbreak in love or wants to sing with real feeling.

Belt it out at karaoke and it’s guaranteed to get the crowd going.

Tomorrow as wellSHISHAMO3rank/position

SHISHAMO “Tomorrow Too”

SHISHAMO’s hit song “Ashita mo.” The key change in the chorus feels incredibly satisfying, and thanks to its exhilarating vibe, this J-rock number gained popularity nationwide.

The vocal range is standard, spanning mid1F# to hiC.

The highest note, hiC, appears frequently in the chorus, so it’s a song that requires a bit of stamina.

If it feels tough, try lowering the key.

If the lowest notes are hard to hit, you can alternatively shift them up to around mid1G#.

It’s a track that’s sure to hype up any J-rock fan, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

Kenshi Yonezu – Peace Sign

Among Kenshi Yonezu’s songs, this one definitely falls on the more upbeat side—many of you probably love it, right? The song’s vocal rhythm is quite intricate, so it can be challenging if you try to sing it precisely.

However, if it’s just for karaoke, you can surprisingly power through it with momentum! Also, within the range used, it leans more toward the lower register, so it’s a song I particularly recommend for people with lower voices.

If you’re a man who struggles with low notes, you might consider raising the key a little.

Goodbye ElegySuda Masaki5rank/position

Masaki Suda “Sayonara Elegy”

One of Masaki Suda’s signature songs—he’s not only an actor but also actively involved in music.

The vocal range is a little over one octave, and the key is comfortable for an average male voice, so it’s recommended for many men! It’s also somewhat up-tempo, so you might need a bit of practice with the rhythm, but the melody isn’t very complex, so after a few runs you should be able to sing it right away.

As a signature track by a popular singer of the same generation, it’s a choice you can’t go wrong with.

RADWIMPS – Aloof [Official Music Video]

RADWIMPS wrote “Sokkenai” as the theme song for the dating reality show “Don’t Be Fooled by the Wolf-kun.” The song depicts the push and pull of romance and the emotional turbulence that unfolds on the show.

Its melody is simple, centered on 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 your voice to come through more clearly.

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

Promise of SunflowersHata Motohiro7rank/position

Motohiro Hata / Promise of a Sunflower (Short Ver.)

This is a song that was also used as the theme for a Doraemon movie.

Doraemon films can be real tearjerkers—many people have probably wiped away a quiet tear in the darkness of the theater.

Among anime-related songs that have surpassed one million downloads, besides this one, there are only a few others like “A Cruel Angel’s Thesis” and “Sousei no Aquarion.” It’s a song by Motohiro Hata, and since the original key is a bit on the high side, it might be just right for female singers as well.

As long as you can nail the chorus, you should be fine.

The trick is to sing the A and B verses gently and with feeling!
