Kenshi Yonezu Karaoke Hit Song Ranking [2026] (31–40)

canaryYonezu Kenshi36rank/position

A track from Kenshi Yonezu’s fifth studio album, STRAY SHEEP, released in August 2020.

It’s a very gentle ballad that fully showcases Yonezu’s outstanding vocal ability and expressive power, so singing this at karaoke is likely to be quite challenging.

Beyond accurately tracing the melody, try practicing how to switch skillfully between falsetto and mixed voice in the high sections.

Santa MariaYonezu Kenshi37rank/position

Santa Maria, the first single that marked his major-label debut under his own name.

Not only the song itself, but also the artwork and even the picture book featured in the music video were all created by him, making it a track that showcased his talent to listeners who hadn’t known Kenshi Yonezu before.

With its relatively narrow vocal range, relaxed tempo, and low key, it should be easy to try at karaoke.

It’s a masterpiece with a sacred, spacious atmosphere that feels comforting—one you’ll want to sing while immersing yourself in its world.

The world of Kenshi Yonezu woven from imaginative melodies and innovative electronic sounds.

Set against the backdrop of space, this work—depicting life’s choices and fateful encounters—was released in January 2025 as the theme song for the animated film “Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX -Beginning-.” It carries Yonezu’s signature delicate sensibility and straightforward passion, familiar from albums like “diorama” and “BOOTLEG.” Alongside its high-energy musicality, the lyrics powerfully convey the courage to step into new worlds and the drive to face the unknown, leaving a deep impression.

It’s a song I especially recommend to younger listeners who are determined to forge their own path.

Grim ReaperYonezu Kenshi39rank/position

Kenshi Yonezu has many uniquely distinctive songs, but among them, “Shinigami” stands out in particular.

It’s a track inspired by classical rakugo, with lyrics that pay homage to the rakugo piece of the same name, “Shinigami.” The sound carries a Japanese traditional flavor while still feeling stylish.

When singing it, try tackling the rakugo-like phrasing in the lyrics with care.

The key itself doesn’t fluctuate much, so it’s also recommended for karaoke beginners.

A duet track featuring Kenshi Yonezu and Hikaru Utada, two of Japan’s most prominent singer-songwriters.

Released digitally in September 2025, it was selected as the ending theme for the theatrical film Chainsaw Man: Reze Arc.

Its allure lies in a beautiful worldview that portrays the disconnect between a man and a woman and emotions that can’t quite be resolved.

The interplay of their contrasting vocal timbres and sense of rhythm conveys emotional tremors that go beyond a simple unison.

If you want to take on a richly emotive song, this is a must.

FlowerwallYonezu Kenshi41rank/position

The 3rd single “Flowerwall,” which was featured as the theme song for Nikon’s D5500 commercial.

After Keisuke Kuwata of Southern All Stars praised it on his radio show, many people may have discovered Kenshi Yonezu’s appeal and talent through this song.

As a Kenshi Yonezu track, it contains many sections with sustained high notes, and the melody and rhythm are complex, but that makes it all the more satisfying if you can sing it well.

If the key just doesn’t fit your range, try adjusting it to a setting that suits you and give it a go.

TEENAGE RIOTYonezu Kenshi42rank/position

Kenshi Yonezu – TEENAGE RIOT / Kenshi Yonezu
TEENAGE RIOTYonezu Kenshi

The major 9th single “TEENAGE RIOT,” released as a double A-side with “Flamingo.” Chosen as the theme song for Mandom’s GATSBY commercial series “GATSBY COP,” the track is striking for its contrast between a cool rock ensemble and lyrics that evoke a sense of restlessness.

The melody itself has no big leaps in pitch and is easy to sing, but since the intensity shifts sharply in the chorus, be careful to switch gears smoothly when singing karaoke.

The key isn’t high either, making it an approachable number even for those who aren’t very confident singers.
