Japanese karaoke songs that get teenage boys hyped

Dance with the sun, sing on a moonlit night: “What If” Music Video

According to JOYSOUND, the average score for “Moshimo” in August 2025 was 85.670.

If you pay a bit more attention to pitch, I think you can raise it even further.

Since rhythm is very important in this song, it’s best to start by matching the timing slowly and accurately.

Rather than trying to sing the whole thing at once, practice section by section so it doesn’t get jumbled and is easier to memorize.

In parts with lots of words, clapping along, keeping the rhythm with your body, or speaking crisply will help you lock into the beat.

For the chorus, try swaying side to side as if you’re dancing; you’ll be able to sing more energetically, which helps you hit the high notes and project your voice.

Since it’s an idol song, the most important thing is to have fun singing it.

Singing with high energy makes it easier to project, so try singing with a smile!

YUU

It was released on August 27, 2025, and it’s also the theme song for the anime “Pokémon: Episode Mega Evolution”! The reading is “Yū.” It’s a stylish song with a touch of traditional Japanese flavor! Since it’s a Pokémon song, it’s easy to get into, and the lyrics carry a strong message of “forging your own path,” which might really resonate with teens.

Yuzu’s songs are generally easy for women to sing as long as there aren’t low notes! This track stays mostly in the mid-to-high range, so it might be composed in a key that’s easy for just about anyone to sing.

The chorus starts on G#4 and then steps down, so if you put a clear accent on that very first note, it’ll make projecting your voice easier! The opening is crucial, so keep that momentum going as you sing!

Me, looking my best—I’m unstoppable! (feat. Yurinya)Pretty Chuu

Me, looking my best—I'm unstoppable! (feat. Yurinya)

As the title suggests, it’s a positive song with lyrics that boost your self-esteem and help you love yourself! The range is comfortable, so even karaoke beginners can sing it with confidence, and it’s easy to get hyped at karaoke—singing with friends will make it even more fun.

When you sing, the chorus starts on A#4, so don’t push your voice; imagine singing lightly with a smile, which makes it easier to catch the groove and keep it sounding cute.

It might be best to sing as if you’ve actually become an idol! That way your facial muscles stay lifted, which prevents a throaty sound and lets you sing comfortably and pleasantly.

Also, waving your hand side to side like at a live concert helps you lock into the rhythm, so I recommend it!

migratory bird[Alexandros]

[Alexandros] – Wataridori (MV)

A four-piece rock band that changed its name from [Champagne] to Alexandros in 2014.

This is their 10th single overall, and it was also used as the theme song for Asahi Beer’s commercial “Asahi The Dream.” Hitting the high notes in the chorus might be quite challenging.

It’s a four-member rock band that also drew attention when vocalist Takahiro Yamamura appeared in a TV drama.

The song features beautiful string sounds and was the theme song for the film “From Me to You.” It’s a good one to try singing if you go to karaoke with your girlfriend.

More Berry SummerCUTIE STREET

[LIVE Footage] CUTIE STREET “More Berry Summer” 📍Makuhari Messe, International Exhibition Hall, Halls 9–11 (2025/7/21)

It’s a song packed with phrases about youth, friendship, and first love, so it really resonates with teenagers and is easy to sing in your own words.

It’s also performed at summer festivals and has lots of live-style callouts, so it should get everyone hyped at karaoke! The melody is catchy, and the vocal range doesn’t go that high.

Up to the chorus, there’s more call-and-response than “singing,” so enjoy it together with everyone, then switch to a “singing” mindset from the chorus to add dynamics and really bring the song to life.

For the high parts, try singing as if you’re sending your voice far away—your voice will come out more easily, so give it a try! And since the groove is key, the best way is to keep the rhythm with your body while you sing.

Killer tune!Oizumi Yo

Yo Oizumi 'Killer Tune!' Music Video

It’s a song that was released as a digital-only single on August 14, 2025, and since it was also produced as the CM song for “LIVE DAM WAO!,” its theme is karaoke—so it seems like it would really hype people up when you actually sing it at karaoke! Plus, it’s a fresh, up-tempo track, so I think it will look and sound great in a karaoke setting.

It’ll likely be easier to sing if you memorize the lyrics to some extent beforehand.

The chorus in particular has a lot of words and moves quickly.

That said, the lyrics rhyme like a rap, so once you lock into the groove, it should be easier to sing.

If you’re keeping time in 4/4, putting an accent on the first beat of the intro gives it a driving, forward-leaning feel that makes it easier to deliver.

Rather than trying to articulate every single word, let the lyrics ride the melody.

I recommend humming while you’re learning the song—try it in a relaxed state!
