Karaoke songs recommended for men with low voices or who are good at singing in a low register

In recent years, Japan’s music scene has seen an increase in songs with lots of high notes, influenced by K-pop.

As a result, it’s become harder for men with lower voices to find songs that suit them.

So! We’ve selected recommended tracks specifically for men with deep voices.

We also considered how well these songs go over at karaoke, so if you’re planning to go with a group soon, be sure to check them out.

Recommended karaoke songs for men with low voices and those good at singing in a low register (61–70)

Blue Springback number

back number – Aoi Haru (full)
Blue Spring back number

I often think of back number’s songs as very “This is youth!” and this one is literally titled “Aoi Haru” (Blue Spring).

While it does have parts that sit comfortably for low male voices, the overall range is quite wide, spanning D3 to C5.

What’s more, the pitch jumps up suddenly from the C melody, and the last chorus modulates, raising the range even further.

If you sing it in the original key, the second half may feel quite high, so if you’re not used to it, you might want to lower the key by two or three steps.

If you do sing in the original key, it’s fine not to belt the high notes—falsetto can capture the vibe nicely too.

Try singing it while reminiscing about your own youthful days!

The Birthday – I Want to Hold You
I Want to Hold You (The Birthday)

The Birthday is a rock band that has been active for many years, and their resurgence since the 2020s has been remarkable.

Among their songs, one I especially recommend for men with lower voices is “Dakishimetai” (“I Want to Hold You”).

This track doesn’t just lean heavily on low tones; it also emphasizes a raw, rough edge.

That’s why it’s an excellent choice for people with deep, raspy voices to really showcase their strengths.

Give it a try at a karaoke after-party.

Of course, a not-too-high pitch is important, but an upbeat, driving accompaniment is also a key factor in how easy a song is to sing.

When you sing this song, try to use as big a voice as possible.

With a whispery, low volume, it becomes difficult to maintain stable pitch.

SakurazakaMasaharu Fukuyama

Masaharu Fukuyama – Sakurazaka (Full ver.)
Masaharu Fukuyama - Sakurazaka

Masaharu Fukuyama’s 15th single, released in April 2000.

It’s such a massive hit that it needs no introduction.

Since Fukuyama’s charm lies in his rich lower to mid vocal range, you don’t need a particularly high voice to sing this song.

The key point is how firmly and deeply you can deliver those mid-to-low tones.

The tempo is slow, so if you cherish each word of the lyrics and sing carefully and thoughtfully, I’m sure you can move your listeners.

Relay ~ Forest PoemSouthern All Stars

Southern All Stars – Relay ~ Mori no Uta [Official Music Video]
Relay ~ Poem of the Grove (Southern All Stars)

This is the sixth digital-only single by Southern All Stars, released in September 2023.

It serves as the CM song for Uniqlo’s “LifeWear/HEATTECH: Happiness Is Today” and “Snow Globe” commercials, in which Mr.

Kuwata himself appears.

Recreating Mr.

Kuwata’s vocal in karaoke is arguably a privilege for men who excel at low notes.

I think the way the rests (the sense of space) are used in each vocal melody phrase is a key point for singing it well, so it might be best to study that carefully beforehand and memorize the lyrics before you sing.

Glare-off girl Tomonari Sora

A gem of a song by Sora Tomonari that portrays a dangerous infatuation with a beppin-san—a person of alluring, bewitching beauty—through a uniquely expressive lens.

Featuring a compelling blend of East-meets-West melodies that evoke Taisho romanticism and a rich, deep vocal tone, the track was released in May 2024 and drew attention after being selected as J-WAVE’s SONAR TRAX and MTV’s Buzz Clip.

“Niramekko” sits in the A2–A4 range, so it isn’t particularly high, but we recommend switching to falsetto for the pre-chorus.

It’s a stylish tune, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

I love you, Penthouse.

Penthouse is a six-piece band.

While rock is the mainstream in the Japanese band scene, they specialize in city soul—a genre that’s relatively rare in Japan.

City soul blends city pop and soul music, combining a flowing smoothness with soulful depth.

This work is one such example.

The vocal range is fairly wide, but there are many sections that make great use of the lower register, so if you’re a confident low-voiced singer, definitely give it a try.
