Funny Songs That Will Kill at Year-End Parties [2026] (41–50)
UFOPink Lady
If it’s a gathering or year-end party with a lot of slightly older folks, nostalgic tunes go over well.
To liven things up, hit songs by classic idols like Seiko Matsuda or Akina Nakamori are great, and if you’re joining a group performance, Candies is perfect! My top recommendation is Pink Lady’s “UFO.” It’s truly a timeless idol anthem—a real gold standard that never fades.
Just hearing that spacey-sounding intro gets you excited.
And everyone 50 and up will know that distinctive choreography, so it’s bound to get the crowd going! Be sure to check out the “UFO” cover by the idol group Pink Babies, too.
To all my ex-girlfriendsKoresawa
A humor-filled song from Koresawa.
Its lyrics express gratitude to ex-girlfriends and love for a current partner—sure to draw attention if performed at a year-end party.
Released in September 2024, the track features a lively, country-style sound.
The lyrics are peppered with laugh-out-loud lines like “Thank you for taking care of my person.” By viewing past relationships positively and showing gratitude for everything that led to present happiness, the song warms listeners’ hearts.
It’s recommended for those with rich dating experience or the confidence to laugh off past romances.
Sing it together and the whole venue is guaranteed to light up.
Don’t stop the partyizanami hifumi (CV. kijima ryuichi)
How about a song that makes you feel like you’re in a host club? It’s one of the works from Hypnosis Mic, a music-origin character rap project performed by popular voice actors.
The track is by Hifumi Izanami, voiced by Ryuichi Kijima, and was released in 2020.
Lyrics and composition were handled by Sho Kiryuin of Golden Bomber.
With an EDM sound that blends coolness and glamour, it really lifts your mood! Don’t be shy—fully get into character and go all-in at karaoke.
Fight on the WebOkazaki Taiiku
Singer-songwriter Taiiku Okazaki has crafted many interesting songs from various perspectives, and this track is another delightfully unique piece seen from a fresh angle.
As the title “Fight on the Web” suggests, the song centers on arguments on the internet, with the back-and-forth replies on a message board turned directly into lyrics.
Because online squabbles are something we often see, singing this at karaoke is sure to liven up the room with reactions like, “There’s a song like this?!”
U.S.A.DA PUMP
DA PUMP covered Italian singer Joe Yellow’s song, and their track “U.S.A.” became a huge hit thanks to its easy-to-remember lyrics and striking dance.
Many of you probably still clearly remember the intro move that spins like a robot.
If you listen closely to the lyrics, they’re amusing—almost like Lou Oshiba’s signature “Lou-go,” a playful mix of English and Japanese! If you’re performing it at a year-end party, the dance is a must, of course! Use your break time to practice together so you can nail the moves in the opening and the chorus perfectly in sync.
Pixels of EmotionOkazaki Taiiku
A track by Okazaki Taiiku from Uji, Kyoto! It’s included on the album “XXL.” This is a song where you can see a cool side of Okazaki Taiiku as he entertains with various creative twists.
The PV was directed by Sushi-kun, who is Koyama Takuya, the guitar-vocal of Yabai T-Shirts Yasan.
Why not sing this song and strike a cool pose like Okazaki Taiiku?
loveHoshino Gen
The hilarious bit that propelled Oideyasu Koga to stardom on the M-1, “When I sing karaoke, the mood totally dies…,” feels like something that could really happen, doesn’t it? Rather than singing a song nobody knows, it’s best to pick a massive hit everyone’s familiar with! In that sense, Gen Hoshino’s ‘Koi’ is a can’t-miss, perfect choice for any year-end party, no matter who’s there.
I’m sure the ‘Koi Dance’ will help lift the vibe, too.
When in doubt, go with this song first—snatch the mic before someone else sings it!
