[Recommended for people in their 20s] Songs that hype up a karaoke session | From the latest hits to classics (1–10)
DoraemonHoshino Gen
Gen Hoshino’s famous song “Doraemon.” Since it’s also the theme song for Doraemon, you’ll hear phrases in the intro and interlude that are arrangements of the original Doraemon theme.
If you still watch the show from time to time, you probably know them, right? This piece sits within the typical male vocal range of mid1 B to mid2 F.
Because the lowest note appears in the chorus, it’s more suitable for men with lower voices.
Be sure to add it to your repertoire.
Love♡Scream!AiScReam
The song “Ai♡Scream!” is currently popular on platforms like TikTok and Instagram.
If you’re in your 20s and still keen on trends, you’re probably familiar with it.
Because it’s performed by a voice actor, the arrangement feels somewhat high, but the overall vocal range stays within a typical scope.
As long as you set the key properly, you should be able to follow the pitch without issues.
The real highlight is the spoken lines—if you let loose and sing them without feeling shy, you can expect a big boost in excitement.
Rhyme Wave Phrase DisciplesCHEHON
Osaka reggae anthem “Inbakuto.” I think it’s rare for people who were in their 20s to have enjoyed it in real time when it was released, but there are probably many who discovered it through CHEHON’s participation in MC battles.
Although the track is structured with few break points, its vocal range is narrow, so as long as you memorize the lyrics and flow, you should be able to sing it without any issues.
It’s a sure-fire hit for guys’ karaoke, so definitely add it to your repertoire.

HabitSEKAI NO OWARI
SEKAI NO OWARI’s hit song “Habit.” Many listeners were likely astonished by this track, which departs from their usual fantastical worldview and instead delivers somewhat caustic, realistic lyrics.
As the groove is emphasized throughout, the song sits within a generally standard vocal range for a SEKAI NO OWARI track, from mid1 C to mid2 F.
However, since the highest note (mid2 F) appears fairly frequently, it may be better to lower the key slightly depending on the singer’s range.
While it’s overall on the easier side, there are several rap-like sections, so it’s recommended to firmly memorize the flow that matches the lyrics.
Tomorrow as wellSHISHAMO
SHISHAMO’s hit song “Ashita mo.” The key change in the chorus feels incredibly satisfying, and thanks to its exhilarating vibe, this J-rock number gained popularity nationwide.
The vocal range is standard, spanning mid1F# to hiC.
The highest note, hiC, appears frequently in the chorus, so it’s a song that requires a bit of stamina.
If it feels tough, try lowering the key.
If the lowest notes are hard to hit, you can alternatively shift them up to around mid1G#.
It’s a track that’s sure to hype up any J-rock fan, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.
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!
