With the recent boom of K-POP and the like, I think it’s become more common for guys to sing idol songs even at karaoke with just men.

One track I recommend is Naniwa Danshi’s “Asymmetric.” Naniwa Danshi have always excelled at a more orthodox musical style, and this song in particular is crafted with an extremely catchy melody reminiscent of Arashi in the mid-Heisei era, so it’s sure to get everyone hyped.

The phrase right before the chorus is a bit distinctive, so be mindful of the sudden pitch changes there and prepare to handle them.

Gen Hoshino’s hit song “Koi” is beloved not only by men but also by women.

The track served as the theme song for the wildly popular drama “We Married as a Job!” (Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu), which became a social phenomenon and earned nationwide acclaim.

You still see it pop up often in karaoke histories, don’t you? While the song has a catchy melody, it also packs a punch with accents on the second and fourth beats, giving it a surprisingly solid groove.

In terms of name recognition and ease of getting into the rhythm, it’s a surefire crowd-pleaser.

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.

Ikernai Taiyo NEW! ORANGE RANGE

For men in their late twenties and older, ORANGE RANGE is likely a particularly nostalgic band.

They have many great songs, but the one I especially recommend is “Ikenai Taiyō.” It’s a rap-rock track with a slightly comical touch, and both the chorus and its hook phrase deliver an outstanding lift.

It’s generally an easy song to sing, but since there’s a key change from the intro to the first verse, those who feel unsure should practice it a few times.

This is the new opening theme song for the Egghead arc of the TV anime One Piece, which began airing on August 10, 2025.

The average vocal range isn’t that high, but at the start of the chorus there’s a leap from D4 to B4.

If you can get past that spot, the rest of the melody sits comfortably, so I think it’s relatively easy to sing.

Since it has a rock sound, you’ll want to belt that high section of the chorus in chest voice.

The key to singing the leaping notes is pitch stability.

If the placement of your voice changes when switching between low and high notes, you may strain your throat and find it harder to sing.

Aim to ‘set’ your pitch between the eyebrows, and try singing with your facial muscles lifted, projecting the voice forward.

That will also help you release tension a bit, allowing the vocal cords to vibrate well and your voice to come out naturally!

It’s a song that was released as a digital-only single on August 14, 2025, and since it was also produced as the CM song for “LIVE DAM WAO!,” its theme is karaoke—so it seems like it would really hype people up when you actually sing it at karaoke! Plus, it’s a fresh, up-tempo track, so I think it will look and sound great in a karaoke setting.

It’ll likely be easier to sing if you memorize the lyrics to some extent beforehand.

The chorus in particular has a lot of words and moves quickly.

That said, the lyrics rhyme like a rap, so once you lock into the groove, it should be easier to sing.

If you’re keeping time in 4/4, putting an accent on the first beat of the intro gives it a driving, forward-leaning feel that makes it easier to deliver.

Rather than trying to articulate every single word, let the lyrics ride the melody.

I recommend humming while you’re learning the song—try it in a relaxed state!

Re:makeONE OK ROCK

The classic song “Re:make,” released as ONE OK ROCK’s sixth single.

While ONE OK ROCK now showcases a wide range of musical styles, back then their sound was characterized by straight-ahead rock with touches of emo and hardcore.

This track falls into the latter category, featuring intense shouts in the chorus.

Although the range is fairly broad (mid1 B to hi B), the highest notes can be handled with a shouty mixed voice, so delicate vocals aren’t required.

The low notes only appear in a few spots, so it often feels narrower than the actual range.

However, there isn’t much room to lower the key, so the most important thing is to accurately identify your own optimal key.
