Even karaoke beginners can relax! Easy-to-sing songs for men

Goodbye, Humanitytama

Tama - Goodbye, Humanity

The debut single of the Japanese band Tama, released in May 1990.

It’s a very comical and fun song, so there’s absolutely no need to feel self-conscious about your singing when performing it.

If you simply enjoy “singing” and “using your voice” in line with the song’s warm and easygoing vibe, you’ve already won! I think it’s widely regarded as a so-called “novelty song,” so don’t sweat the small stuff—just have fun! Of course, as a piece of music it’s very well crafted, but for something like karaoke with friends, there’s no need to worry about it that much.

Theory of the Mindful HeartRADWIMPS

RADWIMPS – A Theory of Heart [Official Music Video]

RADWIMPS’ seventh single overall and their fourth since their major-label debut, released in July 2006.

When singing this at karaoke, the key will be whether you can smoothly switch from the laid-back vocals in the intro to the energetic singing in the chorus.

Also watch out for the slightly rap-like fast part in the second verse’s A-melody so your tongue doesn’t get tied.

You’ll likely have trouble keeping up if you’re reading the lyrics as you go, so it’s best to memorize them beforehand.

If high notes are tough for you, try lowering the key a little.

go!go!vanillas – Ra Ra Ra [Music Video]

The band go!go!vanillas is highly regarded in the industry for their diverse musicality.

Their roots are broad: while their core is garage and other white music like country, they’re also influenced by funk and R&B, which gives all their works a complex musical character.

“Rai Rai Rai” is one such track.

Although the musicality is complex, the vocal line isn’t that difficult.

There are plenty of key changes, but also many spots to breathe, making it easier to sing than it sounds.

The rough-and-ready style of the song also makes it easier to perform.

SEKAI NO OWARI – Sleeping Beauty @ The Dinner 2016

This is SEKAI NO OWARI’s third major-label single, released in May 2012.

It’s a bright song with an impressive, beautiful string arrangement that makes you feel happy just by listening! The vocal melody is very gentle throughout, so even those who aren’t confident singers should find it easy to sing.

When you actually sing it, try to place the sound so it resonates against your upper palate; that way, your voice will match the song’s sparkling quality.

PrimalORIGINAL LOVE

Primal / Original Love

It’s Original Love’s eighth single, released in 1996.

It was originally written as a theme song for a TV drama and became a hit, reaching No.

5 on the Oricon weekly chart.

The lyrics are excellent, and singing it vividly brings the scenes and emotions to life.

Fujii Kaze – Michi Teyu Ku (Overflowing) / Official Video

Fujii Kaze’s new song “Michiteyuku.” Since his music is mostly rooted in R&B, to be frank, his songs tend to be on the difficult side.

However, this work is relatively easy among his catalog, featuring a relaxed tempo throughout and a comparatively narrow vocal range for his music.

The use of runs and ad-libs—techniques characteristic of R&B—is mostly on the easier side as well, making it a good recommendation for those looking for singable songs in R&B or Black music.

Pornograffitti “Swallowtail Butterfly” Music Video

This is Porno Graffitti’s sixth single overall, released on June 27, 2001.

The Latin-style rhythm and vocal melody make a very striking impression.

That said, the vocal range used isn’t particularly wide, and the phrases are very easy to remember, so it’s a song that just about anyone can casually hum along to.

If possible, sing it in a key that lets you project a bright, resonant tone, and keep the rhythm light so it doesn’t become flat.
