Recommended Japanese pop songs for karaoke for men in their 30s (91–100)

Limited Expressyuzu

Yuzu is a musical group that has become synonymous with folk duos in the J-POP scene.

Their 22nd single, “Chotokkyu,” released as a double A-side with “Hi wa Mata Noboru,” was chosen as the theme song for the reality dating show Ainori.

The lyrics depict changing environments within the passing everyday life, and those in their 30s—the generation that listened to it in their youth—may feel a different kind of realism now.

With Yuzu’s signature refreshing harmonies and ensemble, it’s a comfortable, karaoke-friendly pop tune that comes highly recommended.

Premonition of Loveanzenchitai

One of Anzen Chitai’s signature songs, the enchanting Koi no Yokan, features a beautiful, melancholic melody.

It’s a recommended karaoke love song for calm, mature men in their 30s.

The track was the band’s seventh single, released in October 1984.

Recommended Japanese pop songs for karaoke for men in their 30s (101–110)

telepathy; tacit understanding (literally: ‘heart-to-heart communication’)19

A song by the folk duo 19 that took its era by storm.

For those who listened to it in real time back then, it’s probably very nostalgic.

In karaoke sessions, especially with groups of men in their 30s, everyone can likely sing along.

Since it’s a gentle, ballad-style song, it’s perfect for the latter part of a karaoke session.

It’s also short, so the quick sing-through makes it an easy pick for karaoke.

GACKT’s classic “Kimi ni Aitakute” (“I Want to See You”).

Among GACKT’s ballads, many men in their 30s likely think of this song first.

Surprisingly, it’s also quite easy to sing.

The relaxed tempo helps, but the especially singable aspect is its comfortable vocal range.

Not too low, not too high.

Every section can be sung in chest voice by most men without issue, so if you can keep your pitch steady, it’s definitely a song where you can aim for a high score at karaoke.

astronomical observationBUMP OF CHICKEN

It’s a very popular song with a timeless, never-fading sound.

Singing with masculine flair over its fast, driving groove is, I think, a key to being attractive.

If that were all, it might come off as simply “manly” or “tough,” but by choosing the romantic theme of “stargazing,” this track also appeals to women.

Highly recommended if you want to be popular.

Tokyo Sunsetback number

It’s a down-to-earth song that expresses a feeling of not quite fitting into the big city of Tokyo.

It carries a warm message that brightens the weary moods of everyday life just a little.

It’s the perfect number for the sentimental autumn season.

Golden Bomber / A Man’s Heart and Autumn Sky [Tried Singing]
A man's heart is as changeable as autumn weather.Gōruden Bonbā

As the title suggests, this is a Golden Bomber song that candidly sings about a man’s heart with an autumn theme.

The feelings of a man in love are portrayed as so clingy they become pitiful, laying bare the weak, vulnerable side of a man.
