AyayaMONGOL800×WANIMA
WANIMA has lots of upbeat songs that make you want to sing along, but for those who feel “the high notes are tough, so it’s hard to try,” here’s a recommendation.
The collaboration track Ai-ya-ya by MONGOL800 and WANIMA features an energetic feel and straightforward vocal melodies, and its range isn’t too wide, making it easy to sing.
The title “愛彌々,” which also appears in the lyrics and is read as “aiyaya,” lends itself to easy call-and-response, making it a real crowd-pleaser.
The vocal range is also comfortable for women, so it could be a hit as a duet for any gender pairing!
makeupMy Hair is Bad
This song, included on the 2019 album “boys,” is a poignant ballad that depicts an unfulfilled romance from a woman’s perspective.
With a range of just over one octave, it’s relatively narrow compared to their other tracks, and its gentle melody set to a slow tempo makes it easy to sing.
However, be mindful that there are high notes using falsetto in the latter half of the chorus and a few other spots.
Because the range is narrow, you can of course adjust the key; for men who struggle with higher registers, lowering the key slightly is recommended.
phantom / illusion / vision / fantasyMy Hair is Bad
This ballad, included on the 2017 album “mothers,” sings about lingering feelings for a past romance.
In the final scene of the song, it depicts getting back together with her, only for the lyrics to reveal it was just a dream—truly heartbreaking.
There aren’t any big leaps in pitch, but the chorus has a distinctive rhythm, so it’s best to practice beforehand to stay on track.
That said, the melody flows at a generally relaxed pace, so many people will likely find it relatively easy to sing.
Lingering over springMy Hair is Bad
This song, which enjoys high popularity among fans, is a track included on the mini-album “hadaka e.
p.” Its appeal lies in the driving band performance paired with the straightforward lyrics written by Shiiki.
Among My Hair is Bad’s songs, this one has a relatively narrow vocal range, making it easier to adjust the key to suit your own voice and therefore easier to sing.
It also features many repeated melodic lines, so it’s recommended for those who find songs with complex melodies and structures difficult to sing.

cold; curt; blunt; unfriendlyRADWIMPS
RADWIMPS wrote “Sokkenai” as the theme song for the dating reality show “Don’t Be Fooled by the Wolf-kun.” The song depicts the push and pull of romance and the emotional turbulence that unfolds on the show.
Its melody is simple, centered on piano.
This not only expresses emotional delicacy but also serves to highlight Yojiro Noda’s vocals.
As a result, singing it at karaoke should allow your voice to come through more clearly.
However, the vocal range is relatively narrow, so the overall difficulty shouldn’t be high.
Because of the summerRADWIMPS
One of RADWIMPS’s most beloved signature songs is “Natsu no Sei.” It’s also known as a track featured in an Apple Music commercial.
Centered on the theme of summer, the song paints scenes of seasonal beauty tinged with a touch of loneliness.
It’s the kind of track you can enjoy while reminiscing about summer memories.
With its consistently relaxed tempo, it’s suitable even for listeners who don’t like songs that speed up at the chorus.
Give it a sing and create a laid-back atmosphere.
Wings of SteelRADWIMPS
“Hagane no Hane” is a masterpiece too, isn’t it? This song was specially written as a Calorie Mate commercial tune featuring vocalist Yojiro Noda.
The commercial is titled “To those who keep thinking in this world,” and in line with that, it delves into the world’s irrational happenings as well as miraculous, wondrous events.
The vocals stay mostly in the lower to mid range, creating a calm atmosphere.
Because of that, it’s also recommended for those who find pitch control challenging.
