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!

Is that okay?RADWIMPS
Since the song is very catchy and memorable, I don’t think it’s too hard to grasp the melody even when singing it at karaoke.
But if you’re aiming for a high score, the key point—above all—is how well you can handle the rap-like delivery in the A-melody section.
The high-pitched, rap-like part at the start of the second chorus’s A-melody might be a bit tricky too.
Normally, I’d say not to sweat the small details in a section like this and just sing it with your own groove.
However, when you’re going for a top karaoke score, staying faithful to the original is also crucial.
So learn it thoroughly and try to rap it coolly!
Sun of Lovekururi
A single by Quruli released in March 2023.
It was pre-released in February and was also chosen as the theme song for the Netflix film “Call Me Chihiro.” It’s a simple, medium-tempo pop-rock song that’s very easy to groove to.
The vocal melody line is also very straightforward and easy to hum, so it should be relatively manageable for anyone to shoot for a perfect 100 at karaoke.
Listen closely to the original, study where to sustain notes, where to cut them off, and how to do so, and give that perfect score a try.
Future is YoursSambomaster
This is Sambomaster’s 23rd single overall, released in August 2023.
It was chosen as the theme song for the Toho-distributed animated film “SHIN Jigen! Crayon Shin-chan THE MOVIE: Super-Powered Great Battle ~Fly, Fly, Hand-Rolled Sushi~.” It’s an upbeat, lively pop-rock song that just makes you feel happy when you listen to it! The vocal melody is very simple and the vocal range used isn’t very wide, so I can confidently recommend it as a very easy song for anyone to sing! Ride the uptempo beat and have fun belting it out!
Your eyes are 10,000 voltsTakao Horiuchi
Released in 1978 as a solo single by Takao Horiuchi, who was then a member of the popular New Music group Alice, the song sold over 900,000 copies.
Even listening again now, Horiuchi’s masculine vocals shine on a track with a very simple, catchy chorus melody, making it easy to see why it achieved such strong sales.
It’s also a song without any particularly difficult sections for karaoke, so try singing it while being careful not to rush the rhythm.
You’ll likely get great results!

Love is…Ryuichi Kawamura
This is Ryuichi Kawamura’s fourth single, released in October 1997.
Musically, it’s a very simple ballad that’s easy to hum and enjoy, but if you’re aiming for a perfect 100 in karaoke, it probably comes down to how well you can reproduce Kawamura’s somewhat distinctive singing style.
Study things like how he applies vibrato and how he connects notes within phrases, then give it a try.
Personally, I have some reservations about turning it into an impersonation of the artist just to chase a score, but since the song features many broad, relaxed phrases, I think it’s relatively easy to recreate in karaoke.
spiralLONGMAN
The fourth digital-only single by the Japanese rock band LONGMAN, released in July 2023.
It’s used as the opening theme for the anime Mushoku Tensei II: Jobless Reincarnation—I Will Seriously Try If I Go to Another World.
It’s a very refreshing pop-rock song ranging from mid- to up-tempo, and I feel the tempo makes it very easy to sing.
It’s a male-female twin-vocal track, and both parts are crafted to be very singable and approachable, so by all means try it as a male-female duo and aim for a high score!
AyayaMONGOL800×WANIMA
A collaboration song by MONGOL800 and WANIMA, released on June 22, 2022.
It’s basically a very upbeat, high-energy rock track, but what’s interesting is that in the middle the tempo and rhythm suddenly change and it takes on a bit of a festival vibe.
The vocal melody stays refreshingly straightforward throughout the whole song.
It’s an easy pick for karaoke and I think anyone can aim for a high score.
It’s such a fun song that, honestly, rather than worrying about your score, the best way to enjoy it is to belt it out at the top of your lungs.
