[For Men] Easy-to-sing Western songs: Tips for singing them at karaoke (41–50)

This song is notable for the shouted chorus, but singing it as-is makes it quite challenging.

If you watch the artist’s live performances, you’ll notice they arrange it using falsetto.

Keep that in mind for karaoke so you can conserve your voice.

Bruno Mars, known for his free and expansive vocal style, doesn’t sing with an extreme vibrato.

As long as you pay attention to pitch, you can enjoy singing along to the rhythm! Ballads are challenging, but Finesse has a great groove, so it’s especially recommended.

“Perfect” is a song by Ed Sheeran, a globally renowned singer-songwriter from the UK.

He has many fans in Japan, and his songs are often sung at karaoke.

Since Ed Sheeran’s popular tracks can overlap with others’ choices, this slightly more niche song is recommended because fewer people are likely to sing it.

Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars’s classic “Uptown Funk ft.

Bruno Mars.” It’s an incredibly funky and cool track.

It might seem difficult, but there aren’t any long sustained notes, and you don’t need much in the way of ad-libs or vibrato.

However, it does rely heavily on shouting technique, so it’s not highly recommended if your voice lacks power.

That said, shouting itself isn’t such a difficult skill, so with practice, anyone can pull it off.

The English and the groove are a bit tricky, but once you get those down, it’s a song that pretty much anyone can sing well.

It would be really cool if you could sing this song effortlessly! It’s one of Shawn Mendes’s signature tracks, and if you understand the passionate feelings and message expressed in the lyrics and sing with that in mind, it will definitely help you connect even more.

Another appealing point is that it’s a rhythmic song that everyone can get excited about together.

We Are YoungFun

The fan favorite “We Are Young,” which won Song of the Year at the 55th Grammy Awards in 2013.

It’s a piece with a modern melody characteristic of indie pop, and actually, it’s quite easy to sing.

Thinking, “Huh? But isn’t this song high?” Yes, there are high parts.

But you know what? If the high notes are tough, just lower the key.

The only high section is the long tone in the chorus.

If you can get through that, the rest has a calm melody, so it ends up sounding pretty good.

Lower the key to suit your voice and give it a try.
