Songs men like. Classic and popular Japanese songs.

It’s packed with songs that were used in dramas and anime!

There are also tracks from those dramas you admired back in the day and the anime and movies you were hooked on.

I think many of these are staple choices for men’s karaoke, so why not give them a look?

ARASHI – Turning Up [Official Music Video]
Turning Up Arashi

A single released exclusively for streaming by Arashi.

It’s a big step forward for Johnny’s, isn’t it? But more than that, this song—arguably their crowning achievement—captures the 20 years of five men who were loved by the nation and by their fans.

So! I want men to sing it! I want to hear it performed as Arashi.

I hope they’ll show that they’re loved by men as well.

Because It Won't Reach by Ken Hirai

This song, which was the theme for the film “50 First Kisses,” really resonates with the candid feelings of a man, doesn’t it? If someone were to sing such a gentle piece with a beautiful falsetto like Ken Hirai’s, I’d be at a loss for words.

I’d love for you to slip it in at karaoke right after a high-energy number.

[Official] Noriyuki Makihara “No Matter What” (Music Video) [3rd Single] (1991) Noriyuki Makihara/donnatokimo [No. 1]
Always, by Noriyuki Makihara

Released in 1991, it’s one of Makihara’s signature songs.

It’s also a karaoke staple and leaves a good impression regardless of gender.

A pop song about the importance of not giving up on your beliefs and dreams.

It encourages you to stay positive, and there aren’t many songs that deliver that message so refreshingly and without sounding preachy.

People generally resist being told to “hang in there,” but when someone says, “At any time, it’s good if you can cherish what you love,” you can’t help but think, yeah, that’s true.

They’re hitmakers who portray men’s feelings so well.

That relatable vibe probably captivates both men and women.

All their works charmingly tug at the heart with a slightly timid male perspective.

As expected, having a herbivorous man sing them earnestly might make them feel even more heartfelt.

Combining Masayoshi Yamazaki’s masculinity with the fragility within it, this song gives off a truly captivating aura—one that even men will find themselves entranced by.

When summer ends and the autumn breeze turns pleasant, listening to it alone on a quiet night brings out new flavors, making it highly recommended.

Many people probably have Momoe Yamaguchi’s “Playback” as a staple karaoke song.

This famous, widely known track has also been covered by male artists, so it’s a song I’d love men to try singing at karaoke as well.

All or NothingB’z

This song is by B’z, one of Japan’s leading artists.

It’s also well-known as the theme song for the drama “Buzzer Beat.” They have numerous hit songs, and this one, which pairs perfectly with the drama, is really cool—so it’s also popular as a song that women want men to sing at karaoke!
