Don’t Fight ItKenny Loggins ft. Steve Perry

If you listen to it when you’re feeling down, it’ll definitely fill your whole body with power! A classic duet by Kenny Loggins and Journey’s Steve Perry.
Their soaring vocals and the guitar intro are quintessential, straight-ahead rock.
The Japanese title is “Sunrise Party.”
Lessons In LoveLevel 42

It reached No.
12 in the U.
S.
in 1987.
It was a single hit from the album “Running in the Family.” They were initially seen as a serious fusion band, but from the mid-’80s they moved into a pop direction and found success.
In that sense, this song is one of their signature tracks.
In any case, when you think of Level 42, the leader Mark King’s charismatic bass playing is famous.
The vocals are, well, decent enough.
Paradise By The Dashboard LightMeat Loaf

Meat Loaf’s “Paradise by the Dashboard Light,” by the American rock singer, is a great choice for a Western rock song to sing at karaoke.
There are many sections where you can shout, so if you’re confident with shouting or you naturally have a husky voice, you can capture the feel of the original and sound really cool—highly recommended.
Also, the song has a female chorus part, so it’d be great to sing it together with a woman who likes rock!

Another Day In ParadisePhil Collins

It’s a single released in 1989 by the British musician Phil Collins.
It was a popular song that reached No.
2 on the UK Singles Chart and No.
1 on the Billboard 200.
Later, it was used in Japan for a Mazda “Cronos” commercial.
Baby, Come BackPlayer

It’s a song released in 1978 by the American band Player, and it even reached No.
1 on the Billboard charts.
(They didn’t have much success afterward, so they’re kind of a one-hit wonder.
) I don’t think it’s too difficult to sing at karaoke.
It sounds even cooler if you can harmonize on the chorus.
Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us NowStarship

Known as the theme song from the movie Mannequin, this track remains a popular 80s classic.
With its distinctly 80s pop sensibility and melodious sound, it’s the kind of song that makes the singer feel uplifted.
It’s a great Western hit to perform as a male-female duet.
Mr. RobotoStyx

A band representing American progressive hard rock that has been active since the 1970s.
In the 1980s, this song—part of the rock opera “Kilroy Was Here” and featuring Japanese lyrics—quietly drew attention in Japan, where it was treated somewhat like a novelty.
