Top 10 Japanese karaoke songs that get men in their 20s hyped
breakfasMrs. GREEN APPLE
Let me introduce a perfect song to kick off a refreshing morning.
This track by Mrs.
GREEN APPLE was released for streaming in June 2025 and became widely known as the theme song for Fuji TV’s information program “Sun! Shine.” It’s also included on their 10th-anniversary album, “10.” While it’s a dance number that showcases Motoki Omori’s shining high-tone vocals, its range is ideal for women to practice switching between chest voice and falsetto.
Rather than focusing on fine techniques, it’s important to start by moving your body and getting into the rhythm.
If you sing while feeling the positive, forward-looking energy in the lyrics, the karaoke vibe will instantly brighten.
Try it when you’re feeling a bit down or in a situation where everyone wants to get pumped up!
To the futureT.N.T
The band consists of three members—vocals by Yuya Tegoshi, bass by Furutatsu, and drums by kyohey—and is a rock band that branched out from XY, produced by YOSHIKI, becoming independent from the XY project as of June 13, 2025.
Their song is used as the support anthem for the 104th All Japan High School Soccer Tournament.
Tegoshi’s voice is generally high, but in “Mirai e” it mainly sits in the mid range, making it comfortable for men to sing.
The melody line is also simple, so it’s easy to pick up even at first listen—highly recommended.
Since it’s a cheer song, it’s best to keep your body well supported and project your voice straight and strong when you sing!
UnderdogEVE
Eve is hugely popular among students.
While Eve’s songs are often known for having extremely low and high ranges, the November 2025 release “Underdog” surprisingly sits in a more singable range.
It features the distinctive “spoken” delivery often used in other songs, where rhythm and timing matter more than strictly matching pitch.
Try singing as if you’re speaking, avoiding unnecessary breath holds.
The range rises a bit in the pre-chorus, so keep your momentum and project your voice as if climbing a staircase!
GOOD DAYMrs. GREEN APPLE
As for artists popular among teens and ones they want to sing, I’d say it’s got to be Mrs.
(Green Apple).
This is a song born in September 2025 from the wish to “brighten and energize Japan.” The vocal range isn’t extremely high; even at the top it’s a light falsetto in the chorus.
Even teenage boys, whose singing can be unstable, should be able to pull off Mrs.
songs as long as they can clearly switch between chest voice and falsetto.
You’ll want to keep a light feel throughout, so like Omori-san, raise your eyebrows firmly and aim to resonate around your forehead when you project your voice.
Also, since the last chorus modulates and the range goes up, articulating a bit more strongly will help you get more sound out than you might expect!
LemonYonezu Kenshi
A song released in March 2018 as Kenshi Yonezu’s eighth single.
Written specifically as the theme for the TBS drama “Unnatural,” it has set an astonishing record with over 900 million views on YouTube.
The lyrics, which express feelings for a loved one who has been lost, portray the pain of bereavement and the bittersweetness of living on while carrying memories of that person, resonating deeply with listeners.
Its bouncy shuffle beat and dynamic melody make it quite challenging to sing at karaoke, but that only heightens the sense of accomplishment when you pull it off.
It’s a masterpiece that’s perfect for creating a reflective mood or livening up the room with a well-known classic.
One moreFUNKY MONKEY BABYS
A signature cheer song by FUNKY MONKEY BABYS that encourages people pursuing their dreams and challenges.
The overall vocal range is D3–A4, and aside from the high note at the end of the chorus, it’s generally within an easy-to-sing range.
It’s best to hit the long high G4 squarely on the karaoke pitch bar.
Aim your voice toward that G4 and imagine letting your emotions burst at that moment! It’s important to take in plenty of air with diaphragmatic breathing, so be mindful to breathe without tensing your body.
Full-Power BoySukima Suichi
A signature song by Sukima Switch, this pop track carries an encouraging message about dreams and taking on challenges.
With a lively band sound and a fairly fast tempo, you’ll need to keep the beat with your body so you don’t fall behind.
The overall vocal range is C3–A4, and it jumps into the high register in the chorus, so it’s recommended for singers who are good with high notes.
If high notes aren’t your strength, it’s fine to lower the key to make the chorus easier to sing, but be careful not to let the low notes in the verse get lost.
When you sing, lifting your facial muscles right before the chorus will help you hit the first note smoothly!
