[Recommended for men in their 30s] Karaoke songs that hyped everyone up back then (91–100)
LOOP ~One of the BE:ST-03 RYUHEI~RYUHEI
This song was created as part of BE:FIRST’s solo project and is RYUHEI’s solo track.
The vocal range is around D3 to D5, mainly focusing on the lower register.
Overall, the song has a calm feel, so it should be easy to sing for men who struggle with high notes.
The chorus goes a bit higher, but since it’s a stylish track with strong R&B elements, I think a gentle approach using falsetto rather than belting suits it well.
It’s nice to have a song like this in your repertoire, so definitely give it a listen!
It’s love, right?wacci
Among my students, there are many men with low voices, and one of the songs some of them have been practicing is wacci’s “Koi Daro.” In this song, the chorus jumps up to F#4, but the lowest note is a quite low B2, which appears repeatedly throughout.
How about first getting comfortable producing those easier low notes solidly, and then trying to sing the higher parts with some momentum? Of course, it’s perfectly fine to start with falsetto instead of chest voice! If you keep singing, it will definitely click at some point, so I think it’s worth taking on the challenge even if it feels “a little high.” Don’t strain—just ride the rhythm and give it a try.

reincarnationYuuri
Yuri’s Rinne Tensei is full of exhilarating drive—being a band number, it’s the kind of cool song that makes your body move on its own! The opening sits in the low-to-mid range, so it should be relatively easy for men to sing.
However, the tempo is on the faster side, so if you try singing before memorizing the lyrics, you might fall behind; it’s probably better to listen closely and get familiar with the track first.
In the latter half, the range goes higher, but if you ride the groove and project with energy, your voice will follow.
Don’t be afraid—have fun and sing it with confidence!
Eine KleineYonezu Kenshi
This is a track included on Kenshi Yonezu’s first major-label album, “YANKEE,” which was released on April 23, 2014.
Yonezu is an exceptionally skilled vocalist, but this mid-tempo pop song features a vocal melody that’s very easy to hum and remember.
I highly recommend it even for people who aren’t confident singers.
If you sing it without forcing anything—simply and sincerely—I’m sure it’ll feel just right!
Stay GoldHi-STANDARD
Hi-STANDARD’s classic “Stay Gold.” Characterized by a uniquely creative sound that blends alternative rock with hardcore punk and melodic hardcore, it became a massive hit in the 1990s.
The most singable aspect of this track is, above all, its rough vocals.
Instead of delicate vocal control, it leans on gritty, hard-edged singing, which gives you a fair bit of leeway.
The louder your vocal timbre, the more this song shines—so consider adding it to your repertoire.
My Past Life, Many Lifetimes AgoRADWIMPS
A song by RADWIMPS, released in July 2016.
It was created as an insert song for director Makoto Shinkai’s film “Your Name.” It’s an up-tempo, very catchy rock number, so don’t overthink it—just sing and have fun! The chorus and other parts pack in the lyrics rapidly, but try to articulate each word clearly so the words don’t blur together.
Especially in the sections where the title is sung, if you emphasize the initial consonant of the first sound “ze,” you can bring out an even stronger impact.
Let’s become a familyFukuyama Masaharu
This is Masaharu Fukuyama’s 27th single, released on August 31, 2011.
As of May 2022, many people now in their 30s probably listened to this song during their sensitive, impressionable years in their 20s.
It was used as the CM song for Recruit’s wedding magazine Zexy and as the image song for TV Tokyo’s variety show “Let’s Become a Family.” The track is a gentle ballad that lets you fully enjoy Fukuyama’s unadorned vocal charm.
The vocal melody doesn’t span a very wide range, so I think just about anyone can sing it comfortably.
Try singing it in a way that preserves the song’s tender atmosphere.
A good tip for making it sound nice is to consciously place the voice as if it’s resonating toward your lower jaw and really engage your chest resonance.
Give it a try!
