MarigoldNEW!Aimyon
Aimyon is popular across all generations.
“Marigold” is also a hit that people in their 50s often sing at karaoke.
I have students of various ages, and many of them sing her other songs too! It seems Aimyon really resonates with everyone, regardless of gender or age.
Also, “Marigold” sits in a comfortable range of F#3 to B4, so it’s an easy song to sing with a melody that’s simple for anyone to pick up.
If you think you’re tone-deaf, you might get nervous when holding the mic, but try not to tense up—sway gently side to side and sing lightly.
It helps you relax, and I recommend it! This can be especially good in karaoke settings with younger people around.
If you say, “Everyone, sing along with me,” you’ll feel even more at ease, so just be natural and enjoy singing!
Whimsical RomanticIkimonogakari
Kimagure Romantic is a song that makes everyone want to sing along.
There’s a simple bit of choreography in the chorus, so it’s guaranteed to hype up a karaoke session, and it’s a song that’s fun for listeners too! The overall vocal range is A3–D5; the highest note only appears briefly in the chorus, so the range is manageable overall.
The A melody isn’t high, so it’s good to sing it lightly, almost like you’re speaking.
From the B melody it gets more rhythmic, so keep a solid sense of tempo and be careful not to rush.
If you calmly cut off notes where they should end, you’ll lock into the groove.
The chorus has choreography and is easy to get carried away with, so be careful not to speed up the tempo.
At a karaoke event held by the vocal training school I used to belong to, one of the students sang this song, and everyone started doing the chorus moves—it got super lively and was a lot of fun.
Definitely give this song a try!
Happinessstorm
The theme song for the drama “Yamada Taro Monogatari,” which featured members Kazunari Ninomiya and Sho Sakurai.
It’s a popular track with an upbeat melody and straightforward, positive lyrics.
The tune is easy to remember and the key isn’t too difficult, so it’s perfect for everyone to sing together and get hyped at karaoke!
As many times as you likeDREAMS COME TRUE
“Nando Demo” is popular across all generations.
I used to sing it a lot too, and it seems many people are familiar with the chorus, so it always got the crowd going.
It’s definitely a song worth knowing! The tricky part of this song is the breathing during the chorus.
Where the same phrase repeats, you can run out of breath and it gets tough.
Proper diaphragmatic breathing is important, but rather than belting each phrase with full power, try to focus on connecting the lines as you sing.
When you shift your mindset, your body will adjust so your breath lasts through the phrase.
Also, the last chorus is the most demanding; singing it with a powerful voice is more for advanced singers.
Don’t push yourself—start by singing it lightly, and you’ll get used to it little by little.
It’s also a great song for strengthening your chest voice, so give it a try in practice!
