GOOD NIGHT BABYAimyon

Aimyon – GOOD NIGHT BABY [OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO]

A classic song where you can fully enjoy Aimyon’s signature airy huskiness and natural phrasing, “GOOD NIGHT BABY.” It’s a track from her second album, “Shunkanteki Sixth Sense,” released in 2019, and a music video was produced in collaboration with Reebok CLASSIC; as of May 2025, it has surpassed 18.

7 million views.

The chord progression is almost the same as “Marigold,” featuring a very accessible melody in the vein of mainstream J-pop.

Overall, there aren’t any dramatic leaps in pitch, nor are there extremely low notes, so it’s easy to sing even for those who struggle with lower ranges.

Yurayura

It’s a masterpiece that fully showcases Aimyon’s outstanding songwriting, which bridges the gap between folk songs and J-POP! “Yurayura” holds the position of a B-side to the 2020 smash hit “Naked Heart,” but it’s also performed at concerts, and footage has been released on her official YouTube channel—so be sure to check it out.

In terms of composition, the song features a very simple chord progression and an easy-to-follow melody that’s very singable.

There aren’t any particularly difficult parts, but if you keep a bouncy rhythm in mind while singing, it will sound even better, so definitely give it a try.

ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION “Rewrite” (M-1 Grand Prix 2024 Promotion Video Theme Song)

For men who feel that delicate ballads or quiet songs are hard to sing at karaoke, this track is highly recommended! As the theme song of Fullmetal Alchemist, it’s a song widely known by listeners of all kinds.

Its vocal range is generally within the typical male range, so many men should find it easy to sing.

If it feels a bit high, the gap between the lowest and highest notes isn’t that large, so lowering the key will make it more comfortable.

And the best thing about this song is the shout-like chorus! Even if you can’t quite hit the notes, you can fire it up with energy and hype, making it perfect for those who don’t want to sing something mellow.

back number – Horizon

The three-piece rock band back number has gained popularity for their moving vocals and instantly relatable messages.

Their fourth digital single, Suiheisen (Horizon), was written as a message to high school students who were unable to participate in the 2020 Inter-High School Championships.

While the key is high, the melodic range is relatively narrow, so it’s a good idea to set it to a key that’s comfortable for you to sing.

However, the chorus features the falsetto that’s a back number trademark, so be careful not to go off pitch and pay attention to the parts where you transition back to your chest voice.

Setting SunYorushika

YOASOBI – Setting Sun (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

Yorushika is a duo that enjoys immense support among young people.

They specialize in melancholic songs, and since their debut they have consistently thrived in the mainstream.

Among their works, the one I especially recommend as an easy pick for karaoke is “Shayou” (Setting Sun).

It’s unusually up-tempo for a Yorushika track and has a strong rock flavor.

While their usual delicate style tends to make any imperfections in the vocals stand out, this song features a rock-oriented, heavier arrangement, so a bit of roughness actually becomes part of its charm.

Mao Sasagawa – Therefore, I Was Scorched

With catchy hooks and a uniquely twisted sound that resonate with contemporary hyperpop, coupled with introspective lyrics and a naïve vocal delivery, this track leaves a powerful impression on listeners.

“Therefore, It’s Burned” by the singular singer-songwriter Mao Sasagawa—often hailed as a maverick—embodies the title of their April 2025 album, “STRANGE POP,” and was released in March of the same year as a pre-album single.

The effect-processed vocals and electro beats take a different approach from typical J-pop and may feel intimidating to those unfamiliar with it, but listeners accustomed to Vocaloid will likely find it approachable.

The melody itself is pop and surprisingly easy to sing, so once you grasp the song’s structure, you can definitely pull it off at karaoke.

Masaharu Fukuyama – Sakurazaka (Full ver.)

Here’s a song released by Masaharu Fukuyama in 2000, expressing his feelings for a former lover.

It’s a beautiful, gentle piece that paints vivid scenes and really touches the heart.

Besides being a well-known classic, it doesn’t have an especially wide vocal range, so it’s relatively easy to sing for karaoke.

The fact that it’s been loved and covered by many artists also shows how popular it is.

It’s definitely a song I’d love to hear men sing.
