SAY KOU SHOWRobāto Akiyama
Robert Akiyama’s masterpiece “SAY KOU SHOW.” It’s a relatively recent song, and with its lyrics packed full of dirty jokes, it seems to land better with people in their twenties and up than with teens.
Despite being a comic song, it features a groovy, smooth melody.
The vocal range is narrow and mostly sits in the lower to mid register, so most men can sing it in the original key without trouble.
It’s a song that’s more about expression than technique, so it’s best performed with exaggerated facial expressions in true Akiyama style.
I am the strongest.Ado
A singer who continues to captivate the world with overwhelming vocal power and expressiveness, Ado.
Many people may feel her signature songs are so challenging that they give up on singing them.
That’s exactly why we recommend taking on “I’m Invincible.” A massive hit as an insert song in the 2022 film ONE PIECE FILM RED, this track is a refreshing pop tune provided by Motoki Omori of Mrs.
GREEN APPLE.
Among Ado’s songs, its melody is catchy and easy to remember, and the chorus delivers an exceptional sense of release.
While switching between chest voice and falsetto is essential, you can absolutely pull it off with enough momentum.
The lyrics, infused with a strong belief in oneself, will fill you with courage just by singing them.
It’s the perfect song for hyping up a karaoke session with friends or for when you want a boost of confidence.

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!
dance hallMrs. GREEN APPLE
A pop dance number by Mrs.
GREEN APPLE.
It became a hot topic thanks to its flashy music video where the members themselves show off their dance moves! The overall vocal range is A3 to F#5, and aside from the very last high note in the chorus, it’s a range most male singers can handle.
If you consciously keep your energy high, your facial muscles and eyebrows will naturally lift, making it easier to project your voice! The rhythm is distinctive—if you feel it with a bouncy swing or count it in double-time, you’ll likely find it easier to groove and sing along.
For the high notes at the end of the melody, don’t be afraid—charge in with momentum! Aim to let it all out and project your voice confidently!
Shut up.Ado
A song I highly recommend for anyone feeling stressed by daily busyness or relationships.
It’s Ado’s landmark work that marked her major-label debut in October 2020, with lyrics and composition by Vocaloid producer syudou.
The lyrics, which vent frustration toward society and conformity and blurt out the words you couldn’t say back, resonated with the feelings of younger generations trapped by the pandemic’s sense of stagnation and became an explosive hit.
In March 2021, the music video surpassed 100 million views, making headlines as a record-breaking achievement by the youngest solo artist to do so.
When you want to blow off everyday frustration, it’s a fierce rock tune that feels exhilarating to belt out at karaoke like a scream.
U.S.A.DA PUMP
The single released by DA PUMP in June 2018—the year they made their big comeback—is a cover of a Eurobeat track by an Italian singer.
It was used as the ending theme for TBS’s “Ousama no Brunch,” and is characterized by its glittering four-on-the-floor beat and catchy melody.
The music video, featuring choreography that incorporated street dance styles popular at the time, became a hot topic and surpassed 200 million views about a year after its release.
Their uniquely “so uncool it’s cool” style became a social phenomenon, with videos of celebrities and athletes imitating the dance spreading across social media.
It’s the perfect song for getting everyone singing, dancing, and hyped at karaoke!

Crimson Lotus FlowerLiSA
This is the song that was chosen as the opening theme for the anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba and sparked a social phenomenon.
It’s LiSA’s 15th single, released in 2019.
The song’s structure, which exquisitely weaves together intense rock sounds with quiet sections, is captivating.
The lyrics, which sing of the protagonist facing a harsh fate and an unyielding will that won’t bend to any hardship, are sure to stir listeners’ hearts.
The chorus, where her high-tone vocals explode, is nothing short of breathtaking.
It’s guaranteed to get everyone pumped if you sing it at karaoke.
