[For Men] Play these songs when you want to hype up the karaoke! (1–10)
NINE LIVESLimited Express
This is a dance number by Choutokkyuu released on September 24, 2025.
The song’s theme is the proverb “A cat has nine lives,” and it features lots of cat-related words.
Choutokkyuu often has songs with high vocals, but NINE LIVES isn’t one that keeps pushing into ultra-high notes, so once you lock into the rhythm, it should be pretty singable! Since it’s a twin-vocal track, there may be spots where singing solo is tricky timing-wise, but the song’s vibe is super cool, so definitely use it to hype up the karaoke room! In general, you can get a strong, steady tone if you resonate in both your head and chest; try placing a hand on your chest to feel that chest resonance as you sing.
By the way, TAKASHI, Choutokkyuu’s vocalist, raises his eyebrows quite a lot when he sings.
It also makes it easier to hit the right pitches, so give it a try!
Dance, please.DISH//
DISH//’s masterpiece Odoryanse, released digitally in September 2025.
It’s a highly unique track, with a distinct, shallow-sounding auto-tune applied throughout.
Overall it follows a J-rock flow, but the pre-chorus shifts into a slightly reggae-like feel, and the chorus unfolds with a murky, almost visual kei-style melody.
Because the song packs so many developments into a single track, it’s a bit less singable, but you can expect it to be a real crowd-pleaser in terms of energy.
KICK BACKKenshi Yonezu
For men in their teens and twenties, Kenshi Yonezu is a go-to artist.
He has a wide musical range, but if you’re looking for something that really hypes things up, “KICK BACK” is perfect.
Released as the theme song for the popular anime Chainsaw Man, it features a striking, impactful chorus and delivers an exceptional boost in energy despite its slightly fast tempo.
Above all, the near-shouted vocal phrase right before the final chorus—enhanced by the music video’s scene of being run over by a truck—is especially popular.
SufferOkazaki Taiiku
Male singer-songwriter Taiiku Okazaki, who has gained popularity with his unique lyrics and catchy melodies.
He’s also highly popular among male listeners and has produced many classic songs, but among them, “Suffer” is especially recommended.
For an Okazaki song, it’s unusual in that it’s rooted in punk rock, featuring melodies that lean toward hardcore punk within the punk genre.
Assuming you sing it full-throttle with some shouts mixed in, it’s a perfect pick for karaoke among male friends.
A gaze is lightTatsuya Kitani
Singer-songwriter Tatsuya Kitani, who enjoys overwhelming support from young listeners.
He’s an artist known for many inventive phrases, and even though “Manazashi wa Hikari” ultimately comes together as orthodox pop, he slips in a Japanese-style phrase right before the chorus.
The song spans a slightly wide range from mid1 C# to hi B, but the hi B parts are in a light falsetto, so even those who struggle with head voice can sing it.
The more challenging spots are actually around hi A, so if you set your key with that as the focal point, you can expect a vocal that really soars at the climax.
Someday, in a world of nothingnessMacaroni Enpitsu
In addition to general rock, Macaroni Empitsu is a band with a wide musical range, from psychedelic to hard rock.
For men who like Japanese rock, you could say they’re an extremely popular band.
Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is Itsuka Nani mo Nai Sekai de.
Although the song sits in an easy-to-sing range of mid1 A to hi A, it still builds excitement properly, and in the chorus you can let out a big voice with a near-shouted feel.
The scat-like section at the end of the chorus starts with a shout, so it’s good to aim for a slightly more vigorous, rough vocal style.
RewriteASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION
People in their late 20s to early 30s are the generation that lived through the golden age of Japanese rock.
Among those bands, ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION was especially popular with men.
Of all their songs, the one I particularly recommend is Rewrite.
It stays in a low register for much of the track, which makes the chorus feel explosively open by contrast, and the almost roar-like phrases really fire up the crowd.
Because the verses sit so low, it’s tempting to raise the key, but if you match it to that, the chorus will be tough—so find a comfortable middle ground and sing in a moderately adjusted key.
