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

A Little Love SongMONGOL800

MONGOL800 / A Small Love Song

Released in 2001, this is one of MONGOL800’s signature songs, but it has never been released as a single.

Even men with low voices who struggle with high notes should find it easy to sing.

In the lower-pitched sections like the verse, make sure to project so your vocals don’t get buried by the accompaniment.

Overall it’s an upbeat punk rock track, so rather than focusing on technique, if you power through with energy, you should be able to capture the original vibe well.

bouquetback number

back number – Bouquet (Short ver.)

Currently enjoying immense popularity, Back Number.

Their signature song Hanataba is a rock number with a catchy pop feel.

The sweet, gentle vocals have captivated many women.

To produce such a distinctive voice, it’s important to find the spot that’s just right for you.

The melody isn’t particularly difficult, so once you practice it a bit, you should be able to sing it fairly quickly.

KANA-BOON “Silhouette” Music Video

KANA-BOON’s fifth major-label single, released in November 2014.

The original vocals are a bit high-pitched, so men with lower voices who struggle with high notes might shy away from it, but the melody itself is very simple and easy to sing, and the range used isn’t very wide.

If you lower the karaoke key a little, you should be able to handle it just fine.

Conversely, raising the key by about 2–3 and singing an octave lower could also work.

It’s a brisk rock song, so sing it with good energy and groove!

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

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

It also served as the theme song for the TV anime Gintama.

It’s a very straightforward, cool guitar rock song, and since the vocal melody doesn’t have major ups and downs throughout, it’s a very singable piece even for those who aren’t confident singers.

However, precisely because both the melody and rhythm are simple, the question is how stylishly you can deliver it.

Try singing it like a true rock star!

Ballad of a SingerKazuyoshi Saito

Kazuyoshi Saito – Ballad of a Singer [Live ver.]

Released in November 1997, this is Kazuyoshi Saito’s 15th single.

True to Saito’s appeal for distinctly masculine vocals, you don’t need delicate high notes to sing this song.

While the melody does include some relatively high pitches, rather than belting them out smoothly, slightly strained highs will likely make the song more expressive.

So instead of someone who excels at high notes, it might actually suit a singer who’s a bit less comfortable up there and can deliver them with a forceful, pushed quality.

Just be careful not to let your voice crack from overexertion.

Romantic FlightKome Kome Club

Kome Kome Club – Roman Hikō (All Night Fuji 1987)

Kome Kome Club’s 10th single, released in April 1990.

While Carl Smoky Ishii is fairly well regarded for his vocal ability, his vocal range here stays within a range that an average male singer can comfortably cover.

The melody, characteristic of songs from that era, isn’t particularly difficult either, so singing this song at karaoke shouldn’t be too hard.

If you support your voice solidly from your diaphragm so the low–mid tones don’t get buried in the accompaniment, you’re sure to earn the respect of those around you.

Goodbye ElegyMasaki Suda

Masaki Suda “Sayonara Elegy”

This is the third single overall by Masaki Suda, who is active both as a singer and an actor, released in February 2018.

It was also the theme song for the drama “Kiss that Kills,” in which Suda himself appeared.

The lyrics and composition are by Huwie Ishizaki, known as Suda’s close friend.

You don’t need advanced vocal technique to sing this song.

Like the performer himself, Masaki Suda, sing it through with a passionate voice.

If the high notes in the final chorus feel tough, try lowering the key a little.
