SPEED STARAlpha
This is a popular Alpha karaoke track where high-speed rapping shines on a fast-paced beat.
Since it’s mostly rap, even men in their 30s who struggle with pitch will find it easy to sing, and because the rap itself is fast, you can make it sound good as long as you firmly grasp the timing of the lyrics.
Flowers of EvilBUCK-TICK
BUCK-TICK is a legendary band that has left behind many masterpieces.
Even after the passing of Atsushi Sakurai, they continue to be loved by countless fans.
Their song “Aku no Hana” is their biggest hit.
It’s characterized by a musical style that blends gothic rock and alternative rock, and it became a nationwide success.
Throughout the piece, the vocal range is set relatively narrow.
There are instances of subtle vibrato, but you don’t necessarily have to match the original exactly—singing it more freely and expansively is also a great option.

GiftET-KING
This song captivates with its heartwarming message and friendly melody.
The lyrics, which express gratitude for meeting someone special and for the small gifts of everyday life, resonate deeply with listeners.
Released in September 2007, it gained widespread popularity and was selected as the September POWER PLAY on Nippon TV’s “Ongaku Senshi MUSIC FIGHTER.” It is also known as a wedding classic—perfect for conveying appreciation to someone important or for listening at life’s milestones.
It’s easy to sing at karaoke, and if you perform it with feeling, it’s sure to touch the hearts of those who hear it.
HOWEVERGLAY
HOWEVER, a song by GLAY, a four-piece rock band from Hokkaido, is a classic passed down across generations.
Its greatest appeal lies in the beautiful contrast between the quiet and intense sections.
In particular, after the guitar solo, the final chorus features many high notes—nail it, and you’ll definitely earn the respect of those around you.
By the way, the final high notes are quite challenging for men to hit in chest voice, so if it seems tough, switching to falsetto just for that part is recommended!
single bedSha ran Q
This is Sharam Q’s sixth single, released in October 1994.
It was also used as the ending theme for the Nippon TV anime “D·N·A²: Dokoka de Nakushita Aitsu no Aitsu,” and it became a long-selling hit, marking Sharam Q’s first million-selling single.
So as of July 2023, many people in their 30s have likely heard it.
As this was the 1990s, when the karaoke market was considered crucial for a song’s success, the track is structured to be very easy to remember and sing.
It’s a song I highly recommend even for those who don’t usually sing much.
Since it’s a slightly slow-tempo song, just be careful not to get ahead of the beat when you sing.
Precious thingsroodo obu mejyaa
Lord of Major is a rock band born from a documentary project on the popular TV show “Hamaraja.” Although they originated from a TV企画 (TV project), they specialize in punk rock and have left many memorable songs and a lasting mark on the scene.
Among their tracks, the one I especially recommend is “Taisetsu na Mono.” While the song spans a relatively wide vocal range, it’s surprisingly easy to sing because it works even when sung a bit rough.
It’s perfect for those who want to belt it out at full volume.
ChronostasisBUMP OF CHICKEN
This is BUMP OF CHICKEN’s 18th digital-only single, released on April 11, 2022.
With its mid-tempo and very singable vocal melody, it’s a song that even those who aren’t confident singers can likely handle comfortably at karaoke.
Singing with a relaxed approach and light vocal production is a quick way to capture the feel of the original.
There are parts that may require techniques like mixed voice to sing in the original key, so if you’re not confident in that area, try lowering the key.
