[2026] Perfect for teen boys: Songs that tend to score high at karaoke

Vocal coachKubota Mami
After working as a voice trainer at a studio for seven years, I went independent in 2025. To date, I’ve taught more than 300 students. Honestly, I started teaching out of simple curiosity (lol). When I was job hunting, I stumbled across a listing for a “vocal instructor,” thought, “What is this?!” and applied on impulse. That’s how I became a teacher with zero prior knowledge—so I went through more training than anyone and studied a lot on my own. When I started teaching what I’d learned to my students, their responses were really positive, and that’s when I felt a real sense of purpose. As a teacher, I absolutely love those moments when I’m growing together with my students. As for my musical activities, I’ve been playing bass in a wind ensemble since high school and still do. I’ve also performed live in a band as a singing bassist, and sometimes I’m invited to sing as a vocalist only. Through vocal training, I want to keep using my voice and stay healthy and beautiful for years to come!

Started working as a music writer as a side job while employed at a record shop, and for over 18 years I’ve contributed to music magazines, disc guide books, mooks, and web media. As a writer my main field is Western music, but as a listener for over 35 years, I always try to keep my curiosity alive with the motto “I like what I like.” I have experience playing in bands, where I was a bassist who handled songwriting and composition. Instruments I’ve played include bass, guitar, and piano. I began studying English in my mid-40s and continue to do so today.

Compared to songs from a while back, many popular J-pop tracks from the late Heisei to Reiwa era have complex structures and melodies.

A lot of teens may feel, “I want to score high at karaoke, but it’s hard…” Of course, what’s easy to sing varies from person to person, but this time we’ve curated a list of relatively easy-to-sing songs that tend to score well at karaoke, aimed at teenage boys.

We’ve selected popular numbers centered on hits from the Reiwa period, while also including a few slightly nostalgic tracks, so they’re all great for getting the energy up at karaoke.

We’ve also included songs that are approachable even for those who aren’t confident singers, so be sure to check them out.

[2026] Perfect for teenage boys: Karaoke songs that are easy to score high on (41–50)

Compared to the image of his high notes, Tatsuya Kitani gives a stronger impression with his lower register, doesn’t he? He has a signature song called “Aono Sumika,” but in fact, the vocal range in this new song “Nakushimono” is narrower, so it might be easier for low-voiced male singers to sing in chest voice.

There are a few higher parts in the chorus, but falsetto works fine there.

However, the last chorus modulates and goes up by a whole step.

If you can get through that part when you sing, you’ll be perfect—so try projecting your voice with some momentum!

SEKAI NO OWARI “Amber”

amberSEKAI NO OWARI

SEKAI NO OWARI is known for its wide musical range, from orthodox rock to fantastical J-pop.

Recently, they made a sharp stylistic shift toward groove-focused tracks, but with their latest release, Amber, they’ve returned to a more ennui-tinged J-pop that feels like a throwback to their roots.

Because Fukase’s voice is high, you might think it’s a high-pitched song, but the vocal range isn’t very wide, and the vocal line is relatively flat and monotone.

There are plenty of long tones, but the pitch is easy to follow, so if you can find the right key and maintain stable vocals, you can definitely aim for a high score.

SEKAI NO OWARI “Highest Altitude” ONE PIECE Lyric MV

As you’d expect, if it’s the theme song of a nationally beloved anime, you can look forward to a great reaction at karaoke.

“Saikō Tōtatsuten,” released by SEKAI NO OWARI in 2023, is a digital-only single written as the opening theme for the TV anime One Piece.

A lyric video using One Piece footage was also released, drawing attention to the track.

With its anime-like catchiness, refreshing vibe, and a marching band-style arrangement partway through—elements that embody SEKAI NO OWARI’s distinctive world—it’s sure to get the crowd going at karaoke.

Since the melody line stays within a fairly consistent pitch range, even those with lower voices should be able to handle it well by adjusting the key.

In 2024, Marcy achieved a performance at the sacred Nippon Budokan, cementing their status in name and reality as one of Japan’s leading young bands.

Their songs—lyrics that depict delicate emotional shifts resonating with many young listeners, paired with heartrending melodies—are also very popular for karaoke.

That said, the melodies sung in Ukyo Yoshida’s high-tone voice can seem challenging… For those who feel that way, we recommend Freesia, set for release in April 2025.

Its vocal range is relatively narrow and doesn’t venture into particularly difficult high notes, making it approachable even for those with lower voices.

Try singing it with enough determination to fully convey the protagonist’s feelings, and deliver it with emotion.
