Must-see for men: If you sing these, your karaoke skills will definitely improve (1–10)
Anthem of the Wind feat. suis from YorushikaEVE
This is a song newly written by Eve as the opening theme for the TV anime The Witch Hat Atelier.
The crystal-clear vocals of Yorushika’s suis and the exhilarating, fast-paced melody crafted by Eve resonate together, resulting in a grand piece that perfectly suits a classic magical fantasy.
If a man sings it solo, I think it’s best to stay in Eve’s original vocal range throughout.
The grand atmosphere evokes an image of spreading your arms wide and feeling the wind across your whole body.
Diaphragmatic breathing is important, and it’s also crucial to keep your body’s axis steady.
Try not to open your mouth too wide and focus on resonance as you sing.
antlionMr.Children
This is a track included on the album “Ubugoe,” released on March 25, 2026.
Written and composed by Kazutoshi Sakurai, it’s a message-driven mid-tempo number that portrays everyday, small regrets and rebirth.
It’s a very Mr.
Children-like song, with a sense of passion woven into its gentle, heartfelt delivery.
It will turn out beautifully if you can hit the pitches accurately while bringing out clear contrast between the low and high ranges, so be careful not to sing it too casually.
At the ends of melodic phrases, try aiming for a soft, breathy fall.
I can’t sleep because ideas are overflowingVaundy
This song was written specifically as the theme for Fuji TV’s Monday 9 p.m.
drama “Saba Can Goes to Space.” It captures the feeling of excitement you get when facing a tough challenge, blending a sense of speed with a philosophical worldview to create an emotional track.
Vaundy produces music across a wide range of genres—some songs are easy to sing, while others have complex structures that make them quite challenging—his versatility is truly impressive.
As for this track, “Ideas Overflow and I Can’t Sleep,” my impression is that the melody lines are generally hard to sing on a first try.
I think it’s best to memorize it by clearly separating the A verse, B verse, chorus, and bridge.
It should really sharpen your sense of rhythm.
Odoru-LoopFurederikku
This is the title track from the major-label debut mini-album “oddloop,” released in September 2014.
With an irresistibly catchy rhythm and melody that sticks in your head after just one listen, it became a hot topic and, sparked by its massive success on TikTok in 2020, the music video surpassed 100 million views, making it a beloved national dance number.
Then, in May 2026, the music video surpassed 200 million views.
Personally, I love Frederic—they’re my number one artist I want to perform in a band or play live.
Even just singing the song seems like it would train your sense of rhythm and groove.
I hope you’ll really move your body and have fun singing it.
Heaven KnowsB’z
This song was written as the opening theme to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the TV anime Detective Conan.
It’s an up-tempo rock number that portrays the impulse to leap into a new world without fearing an uncertain tomorrow, and it has been crafted with the speed and power befitting the milestone of the Conan series’ 30th anniversary.
In the released music video, Takahiro Matsumoto’s performance on a rare guitar became a hot topic.
While B’z songs are often associated with high vocals, “Heaven Knows” doesn’t actually sit that high in the range.
If you sing with your feet firmly on the ground so your body and vocal core don’t waver, it should help strengthen your chest voice.
Being mindful of chest resonance also seems like a good idea.
StardustOfisharu Higedan Dism
It’s a rock ballad that fuses lyrics focusing on the lives of the characters in the TBS Sunday drama series “GIFT” with a grand sound performed live by the four members of HIGE DAN.
The music video is reportedly a one-shot filmed with 200 lights.
With a characteristically HIGE DAN, bittersweet, youthful vibe and plenty of sustained long tones, it’s best to pay attention to breath control and how well you can make your voice resonate when singing.
In the chorus, really letting your voice out feels just right and makes it enjoyable to sing.
Of course, the range is on the higher side, so be careful not to push too hard with chest voice.
A helpful tip for singing it comfortably is to approach it with the sensation of projecting a strong falsetto.
sparkKitanitatsuya
This song was written specifically as the opening theme for the TV anime “Japan Sangoku.” It’s a hot, fast-paced rock number that shines with Japanese-style wordplay, expressing the protagonist’s strong will to rule a turbulent age not by force but by reason, as well as the clash of convictions.
The overall vibe is distinctly Japanese, and Tatsuya Kitani’s rich mid-to-low vocal tone is sultry and a perfect fit.
There aren’t any bold high notes, but the occasional airy falsetto is a key feature.
If you stay relaxed and sing from the tanden, you’ll get a weightier sound.
From my own vocal training experience, men tend to be better at rolling their Rs than women, so adding a rolled R at the ends of phrases can make the song sound even cooler!
