The popular Vocaloid song “Charles.” Its unique, addictive chorus and eerie, sorrowful lyrics make it a real earworm.

The lyrics come in fast right from the start, so be sure to practice thoroughly.

If you can sing it all the way through cleanly, it’s definitely a song you can add to your repertoire.

It’s challenging, but well worth the practice.

LemonKenshi Yonezu

This song is the theme for the drama “Unnatural.” The lyrics are about feeling sad that someone has died, but the song is very well-known and easy to sing, so it’s sure to be a hit at karaoke! It’s also perfect for showing off your vocal skills.

Goodbye ElegyMasaki Suda

Good-bye Elegy features exhilarating guitar sounds and Masaki Suda’s power-packed vocals that are simply irresistible.

Its speedy feel and cool melody will earn you respect if you can nail it at karaoke.

It’s a full-on belting song, so it takes quite a bit of stamina, but since there aren’t many big pitch jumps, once you lock onto the notes, it’s actually pretty easy to sing.

The world is falling in love — CHiCO with HoneyWorks

A song that straightforwardly sings about student romance.

The catchy melody and bittersweet lyrics are irresistible.

It captures that classic first-love feeling of hurting because you can’t recognize your own feelings of liking someone.

It’s especially perfect for middle schoolers.

If you sing it in front of the boy you like, you just might make his heart skip a beat.

Hanako, the unattainable flower by back number

Back number is a band that enjoys immense popularity, especially among young people.

Takane no Hanako-san is one of their signature songs.

Its songwriting is fairly orthodox, so even those who don’t know it should still be able to enjoy it.

There are parts that use falsetto, which is nice for those who can hit those notes.

Some of the pitches are a bit high, which might actually make it easier for middle schoolers to sing.

Only for you, clear skiesYorushika

Just you in the clear, Yorushika

Yorushika’s “Just a Sunny Day for You” is beloved for its clear, cute vocals and unique melodies.

When it comes to this song, the handclaps are the highlight.

If you can go to karaoke with friends who clap along to your singing, it’ll feel amazing.

With its rhythmic, refreshing vibe, it’s a classic you’ll want to sing at summer karaoke.

LokiMikito-P feat. Kagamine Rin

It’s a popular song with an upbeat, catchy melody and amusing lyrics.

The key changes are intense, and since it’s a duet, it’s best to help each other out and sing it together.

It takes courage to sing solo, but at karaoke with friends who know Vocaloid, it’s a track everyone can enjoy.

I’d love to hear it as a duet by a skilled male and female singer.
