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 the lower register (241–250)

The future is in our hands.Masato Hagiwara

Kaiji OP Full “The Future Is in Our Hands” Kaiji opening full
The future is in our hands Masato Hagiwara

This is the opening theme of the popular anime Kaiji: Ultimate Survivor, a cover by Kaiji’s voice actor, Masato Hagiwara, of a track from THE BLUE HEARTS’ first album.

The original BLUE HEARTS version is really cool too, but the vocals lean a bit too punk, which can make it a little tricky for karaoke.

So I picked this cover version instead.

That said, it’s still a straight-ahead, up-tempo punk number, so don’t worry about singing perfectly—just belt it out with passion and keep it cool! As long as you don’t lose the groove and momentum, you’ll be fine!

DOES 'Donten' (TV Tokyo anime 'Gintama' opening theme)
Overcast DOES

This is the sixth single by the Japanese rock band DOES, released in June 2008.

It also served as the fifth opening theme for the TV Tokyo anime Gintama.

True to their style, which stands apart from many of today’s typical guitar rock bands with a rugged, heavyweight sound, the somewhat casually thrown vocal delivery is present in this track as well.

The song and vocals embody a style that’s the antithesis of “technical showmanship,” so the vocal range used is narrow and the melody is straightforward and easy to grasp.

It’s best to focus on projecting a cool vibe and sing it with a sense of confident swagger.

Please, once more...Eiichi Takahashi

Hailing from Shiga Prefecture, rising enka/kayōkyoku singer Eiichi Takahashi released this as his second single in 2017.

Actually, I produced this track, and the A-melody uses quite low notes, so it might be tough to sing even for guys with deep, handsome voices.

That said, if you’ve got a sweet low register, the melody is designed to let that shine to the fullest, so I’d love for you to give it a try at karaoke.

Including a practice karaoke version, it’s available here: https://music.

LOVE (I want to hold you)Kenji Sawada

Kenji Sawada – LOVE (I Want to Hold You) [stage mix]
LOVE (I Want to Hold You) - Kenji Sawada

This is Kenji Sawada’s (Julie’s) 25th single, released on September 10, 1978.

It was a huge hit at the time, and actually, when I was in elementary school, I put on makeup like Julie himself and sang this song at a class party, which brought the house down (lol).

So I have a very personal attachment to this song, but listening to it again now for the first time in a while to write this piece, I felt it’s crafted into a very dramatic ballad that makes great use of Sawada’s captivating low register.

The low tones in the A section seem like something only men who are strong in the lower range can truly replicate! The high notes in the chorus aren’t that high either, so definitely try singing this and show your friends the charm of your voice!

Easy★RiderTamio Okuda

Easy★Rider Tamio Okuda

Okuda Tamio’s sixth single, released in June 1996.

It’s a song where you can fully enjoy Okuda’s vocals, which are rugged and masculine in a good way.

In an era when many male singers tout a high, almost feminine falsetto, this feels like the kind of track you don’t often hear anymore.

It’s a tune you can sing and enjoy with a very relaxed feel, so don’t sweat the details—prioritize the vibe and you’ll be fine! Pronouncing the lyrics with a slightly spit-out, throwaway delivery throughout might also be a key to making it sound authentic.

In conclusion

A low voice is a unique trait and a captivating asset.

Precisely because songs with many high parts are mainstream now, vocals that make the most of low tones shine even brighter.

While there are areas that require practice—such as pitch movement and breath control—those with a low voice should cherish that individuality and enjoy the world of singing.

By discovering a voice that feels true to you, you’ll open up new possibilities for expression.
