The gently heartwarming, soothing song “Himawari no Yakusoku” is one I want to sing at karaoke to make up after a fight with my beloved girlfriend.

It’s one of singer-songwriter Motohiro Hata’s signature songs and was released as his 17th single in August 2014.

Love is a mirageGam

A folk duo, Gam’s song “Ai wa Kagerou,” which begins with a beautiful piano prelude, is a romantic piece you’ll want to sing for your partner when you go to karaoke together.

It was Gam’s debut single, released in September 1980, and Akina Nakamori has also covered the song.

To say goodbyebiriibanban

“Mata Kimi ni Koishiteru,” sung by Billy BanBan, is a Heisei-era masterpiece wrapped in a gentle, impeccably pure beauty.

It’s a song that, when a man in his thirties sings it at karaoke for his wife’s birthday, expressing his everyday gratitude, will surely move her.

The Last ExcuseTokunaga Hideaki

“The Last Excuse,” one of Hideaki Tokunaga’s signature songs that is quiet, gentle, and deeply soothing, is a recommended make-up karaoke song.

If you sing it at karaoke when you’re quarrelling with your partner over a small argument or misunderstanding, it feels certain that happy smiles will return to the two of you.

Some teenage boys may be interested in Japanese music from a decade or two ago.

In particular, teens who follow the Japanese rock scene are probably digging into older bands.

That’s why I recommend Life Is Beautiful.

It’s the latest release from ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION, who were hugely active in the 2000s, and it has a refreshing, soft overall vibe.

While the vocal range isn’t exactly narrow, aside from a brief falsetto in the chorus, it’s actually quite limited.

The vocal line doesn’t require vibrato, so as long as you can control your pitch and hold long notes, you can aim for a high score at karaoke.

This is a love song by Haj→, a new-generation vocalist with a pop and catchy vibe.

With singable lyrics and a mood that fits perfectly for karaoke, it’s crafted so that even those in their thirties can sing it at karaoke with a fresh feel.

KANA-BOON’s bright and upbeat song “Silhouette” is very refreshing, so even men in their thirties can sing it without it feeling out of place.

In particular, it’s a great choice for typically serious, low-profile, and quiet men to sing at a company karaoke gathering to show an unexpected side of themselves.
