Top 10 high-energy karaoke songs men should sing at mixers (1–10)
A melody instead of a bouquetNEW!Shota Shimizu
Released in October 2015 as Shota Shimizu’s 20th single, this song was chosen as the theme for NHK’s Drama 10 series “Designer Baby: Detective Hayami’s Tough Case Before Maternity Leave.” The lyrics express a desire to convey love not through tangible things like bouquets or embraces, but through melody and voice.
It drew attention again in 2021 when it was performed on THE FIRST TAKE.
With a friendly melody line and a comfortable vocal range, it’s also easy to sing at karaoke.
It’s the perfect song to lift the mood with a gentle, soothing atmosphere.
countrysideNEW!Koji Tamaki
The 11th single by Koji Tamaki, released in July 1996.
It was used as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “Coach,” peaked at No.
2 on the Oricon charts, and sold about 920,000 copies.
The song’s appeal lies in its warm message to people who are struggling yet striving to live, and its catchy melody that makes you want to hum along.
The vocal range is relatively narrow, so it should be singable regardless of voice type.
Although there are some slightly fast-paced parts, once you get into the rhythm, it should come naturally to sing!
Promise of SunflowersNEW!Motohiro Hata
This is the 17th single by Motohiro Hata, written as the theme song for the 3DCG animated film STAND BY ME Doraemon.
The lyrics, filled with gentle feelings for someone and the hope that you can meet again even when you’re apart, warmly embrace listeners’ hearts.
Released in August 2014, it became a long-running hit, surpassing one million downloads.
While the tempo is relaxed and easy to sing, the melody includes some leaps, so it’s best to sing it with care.
Beloved across generations, it’s a song that will surely captivate everyone if you choose it for karaoke.

Goodbye ElegyNEW!Masaki Suda
This is the third single by Masaki Suda, who is active not only as an actor but also as a singer.
Released in February 2018, it was chosen as the theme song for the Nippon TV drama “Kiss That Kills” starring Kento Yamazaki.
With a relatively narrow vocal range and a simple, easy-to-remember melody line, it’s a song that’s easy to sing at karaoke.
Its catchy sense of speed and memorable chorus are packed with elements that will get everyone hyped.
It’s a popular track known across generations, so it’s a safe bet even for group hangouts.
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.
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.
Yume YumeONE OK ROCK
I think ONE OK ROCK is the band that every guy dreams of.
I’m always thinking, “If I’m going to do a band, I want to do ONE OK ROCK!” but the reality is it’s hard to find someone who can sing their keys.
.
.
That said, this time with “Yume Yume,” the vocal range is E3–C5, and there aren’t a lot of repeated high notes, so I think more people will be able to sing it.
However, it has more rap parts than singing… You might struggle with the rap sections when learning it! Try changing the playback speed on YouTube and practice by following the lyrics slowly.
If you can sing it, it should go over really well at karaoke, so it’s nice to have at least one ONE OK ROCK song in your repertoire!
