Male (81–90)
Don't avert your eyes.DEEN
The fifth single by the Japanese rock/pop band DEEN, released in June 1994.
At the time, it was used in a commercial for Otsuka Pharmaceutical’s Pocari Sweat.
The 1990s, when this song came out, were truly the golden age of J-pop, with million-selling hits released one after another.
One key to boosting sales back then was how easy a song was to sing at karaoke.
“Hitomi Sorasanaide,” which we’re featuring here, is no exception: it’s built around a very memorable, easy-to-sing melody that suits just about anyone.
If you’re unsure what to pick, definitely give this one a try.
Singing it casually, as if you’re humming along without trying too hard, is the best way to make it sound good.
Day Life (feat. iri)TAIKING
TAIKING, known as the guitarist for the popular neo-soul band Suchmos, is also active as a solo artist and has earned high acclaim in the industry for his refined musical sensibilities.
The collaborative track with female R&B singer iri, Day Life (feat.
iri), is a standout example.
Although it features a female vocal, the melody sits low and calm enough that men can sing it comfortably as well.
If you sing with a strong sense of groove, the vibe will elevate dramatically—give it a try.
Souls feat. suis from YorushikaWurtS
Singer-songwriter WurtS, who draws attention for his sophisticated musicality and even his ventures into video production, is a multi-talented artist.
Here is his collaboration with suis, known as the vocalist of Yorushika: “Souls feat.
suis from Yorushika.” The song is arranged predominantly in the low to mid range throughout, so the vocal range is narrow and it’s easy for women to sing as well.
The vocal line doesn’t have drastic pitch changes either, making it a straightforward and easy song to sing.
Be sure to add it to your repertoire.
Good Day After the Rain (feat. iri)Hanaregumi
Hanaregumi is a solo project that’s gained popularity for its ennui-tinged musical style.
The relaxed vocals by Takashi Nagazumi bring a soothing feel while maintaining a subtly stylish atmosphere—truly captivating.
Among Hanaregumi’s songs, a standout recommendation is Rain-Cleared Good Day (feat.
iri).
This track features a collaboration with iri, known as an R&B singer.
Although it’s a duet with a female vocalist, iri’s lower voice makes it quite singable for male singers as well.
The gently undulating, languid vocal line is easy to sing even without changing the key, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
REFRESHSnow Man
This is the perfect EDM track for hyping up a karaoke session to the max! It’s a song by Snow Man, a popular idol group from Johnny & Associates, included on their sixth single “Brother Beat,” released in 2022.
Since it was used in a MINTIA commercial, many of you have probably heard it.
For women especially, the vocal range should be totally manageable in chest voice.
That said, regardless of pitch and such, it’s the kind of song that just makes you want to sing along and get into the groove with the music.
Blue MomentFrisian
Freegian is a four-piece rock band that’s gaining popularity in the Kansai live house scene.
While orthodox rock has been on the decline lately with more artists mixing in hip-hop, they embody the spirit of classic Japanese rock.
Among Freegian’s songs, the one I especially recommend is Aoshun.
The vocal range is somewhat broad, but it doesn’t require falsetto, and the vocal lines are catchy and easy to sing, so most men should be able to handle it.
Men (91–100)
FocusShota Araya
Shodai Aratani is a singer-songwriter who’s been gaining momentum with his stylish musical sensibilities.
Known as the former lead vocalist of yowano, he’s become even more popular since going solo.
Among his songs, a particularly easy one to sing without changing the key that I recommend is Focus.
While the key is slightly on the higher side, it’s a delicate track that can be sung comfortably in chest voice, which is part of its charm.
Because it’s a bit high, it’s also easy for many women to sing.
Be sure to add it to your repertoire.
