Japanese pop songs popular among men in their 20s. Recommended masterpieces and classic tracks (21–30)
RPGSEKAI NO OWARI
SEKAI NO OWARI’s classic song “RPG.” This work, which could be called the culmination of the band’s fantastical musical style from their early days, is something anyone born in the Heisei era has probably heard at least once.
Surprisingly, the song’s vocal range is quite narrow, spanning from mid1 C# to hi A.
Since the frequently used notes are also on the lower side, even men with lower voices can sing it without issue if they drop the key.
If you want to boost the quality, try mixing in breaths like Fukase does—doing so will really liven things up at karaoke.
Bedroom TalkOfisharu Higedan Dism
Composed and written by guitarist Daisuke Kozasa, this is a gentle song that tenderly keeps you company in the quiet of night.
It portrays a calm time spent stepping back a little from social media and truly connecting with someone important.
The track is included on the acclaimed 2021 album “Editorial,” a record created with input from all the members, which lends a sense of depth to the band’s expression.
Its warm, mellow atmosphere feels perfect for settling your mind at the end of the day.
It’s a recommended listen for those who are a bit worn out by relationships or who want to drift off to sleep with a peaceful heart.
together; along with; bothWANIMA
WANIMA’s hit song “Tomoni.” While many of its lyrics are negative, the chorus suddenly shifts to a highly positive message, and that strong contrast made the track popular with many listeners.
In this piece, the lowest note is mid1 F and the highest is hi C#, which is a relatively wide range for a male vocal song.
However, the hi C# only appears twice in the first verse’s A section; the song is basically structured with hi A# as the top note, so with key adjustment it can be quite singable.
Since it tends to have fewer natural breakpoints, lowering the key by one step from your optimal key may work better when actually singing.
Team friendsChiba Yūki
The release Team Tomodachi sent shockwaves through the hip-hop scene.
It’s an essential work when discussing Japan’s J-trap movement—hugely popular in Japan and it sparked major hype overseas as well.
People in their 20s are the generation that lived through the peak of the MC battle boom.
A lot of them probably became heads from there and were quick to check out this project.
As a trap track, it’s put together with an especially singable flow, so be sure to rap it with your my men!
Heavy rotationAKB48
Speaking of AKB48, this is the one! You could even say that without exaggeration.
Released in 2010 as their 17th single, it became a huge hit.
I bet many men can sing it while dancing, too.
It’s a timeless classic that never loses its charm.
DistortionBABYMETAL
This is a song by BABYMETAL, a group whose performance fuses metal and idol music and enjoys immense popularity overseas.
It was released as a digital single in 2018.
The sound—unimaginable from their cute appearance—captures the hearts of male fans and won’t let go.
Promise The StarBiSH
This is a song by BiSH, an idol group that performs as a “punk band without instruments.” It was released in 2017 as their third single.
With its exhilarating, fast-paced sound, it’s a cool piano rock number that’s particularly popular among men.
