Aim for a high score! Karaoke songs for men to achieve top scores

If you’re simply aiming for a high score at karaoke, the key points for song selection will naturally be to choose songs with “easy-to-sing melodies,” “easy-to-understand lyrics,” and “clear, straightforward rhythms.”

That being the case, your picks will tend to come from the ’90s and earlier—so-called Showa-era and early Heisei kayōkyoku, new music, and J-pop.

Many recent songs have complex melodies and rhythms, and plenty of people think “This is hard!” after just one listen.

In this article, aimed at men who want to score high at karaoke, I’ve also proactively selected relatively singable tracks even from among more recent songs.

Compared to older hits, these are a bit more challenging to sing, but each song’s write-up includes tips and points to watch for to help you boost your score, so please use this as a guide and give them a try!

It feels great when you nail a high score!

After School [Alexandros]

[Alexandros] is a band that has produced numerous classic songs.

Even those not well-versed in Japanese rock have probably heard their music at least once.

Among their tracks, the one I especially recommend is “After School.” While it has the essence of J-rock, it strongly incorporates elements of overseas alternative rock throughout, featuring a refreshing and composed vocal line.

It’s a notably understated piece: the vocals have minimal ups and downs and a relatively narrow range, making it an ideal song for aiming at a perfect score.

Dannie May is a three-member vocal unit popular among young people.

While many recent vocal units tend to favor a K-pop-leaning, stylish sound, they primarily focus on orthodox J-pop.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is FUNKY MUSIC!!.

There’s a falsetto part in the middle, but otherwise the range stays in the mid register and the vocal line doesn’t fluctuate much, making it a song where a perfect score is well within reach.

GARARI – On a Boring Night [OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO]
A sudden change on a boring night

Singer-songwriter Garari has been steadily gaining momentum since his debut.

He’s known for drastically changing his musical style from song to song and has produced numerous classics.

Among his works, the one I especially recommend is “On a Boring Night.” Its musicality is somewhat close to Sakanaction, featuring a smooth, low-dynamic vocal line.

There’s a slight rise in voltage during the rap part in the middle, but otherwise the vocals remain very uniform—making it perfect if you’re aiming for a perfect score.

Bergamot Tomonari Sora

Sora Tomonari is a singer-songwriter who enjoys overwhelming popularity among young people.

His voice is characterized by a low register with a hint of youthfulness, and his downbeat musical style has produced many hit songs to date.

Among his tracks, the one I especially recommend is Bergamot.

With a groove-driven, stylish vocal line, the song’s range is set quite narrowly.

Depending on your vocal range, it may be a song that’s easy to sing an octave higher.

Ride the sound so intensely it hurts — Sugaaya Ayame

A newcomer artist whose breathy vocals and catchy sound are rapidly gaining momentum, Yua Sugaya.

He already has a few hit tunes under his belt, but the one I especially recommend is “Ride the Sound Till It Hurts.” It’s a bright, upbeat track, yet surprisingly the vocal line’s pitch movement is gentle, and the long tones aren’t all that long.

If you track the pitch accurately, it’s a song where you can easily aim for a perfect score.

Number_i is a boy group that has garnered strong support from many women.

While they usually focus on hip-hop, their track “Blow Your Cover” is different.

This piece is quite mellow, crafted with a smooth, gentle atmosphere throughout.

Although it has an R&B vibe that might make it seem challenging, it doesn’t require advanced vocal techniques, so even those who aren’t confident in their singing can aim for a high score.
