[Men] Karaoke Songs That Are Easy to Sing: Ranking [2025]

astronomical observationBUMP OF CHICKEN1rank/position

BUMP OF CHICKEN “Stargazing”

A true masterpiece among masterpieces, with a raw guitar sound and a heart-stirring melody that shine with timeless brilliance—as if the restless rush of youth were rendered directly into sound! Even in the 2020s, BUMP OF CHICKEN’s early signature song “Tentai Kansoku” remains immensely popular and is a karaoke staple.

Motoo Fujiwara’s vocals, still tinged with the youthful blue of his early twenties at the time, are moving no matter when you listen, and overall the pitch sits on the lower side, making it approachable even for those who struggle with high notes.

The pitch movement is somewhat dramatic, and the A-melody in particular demands quite low notes, so try to consciously bring out a sultry nuance like Fujiwara’s without letting it become too flat.

A Little Love SongMONGOL8002rank/position

A Little Love Song

It’s one of MONGOL800’s signature songs, but it has never been released as a single and is included on the band’s second indie album, “MESSAGE.” By the way, despite being an indie release, this album sold over 2.

8 million copies! It’s an up-tempo, super catchy rock number, and you don’t need any complicated explanations to enjoy singing it.

Everyone, just belt it out however you like and have fun!

back number – Bouquet (full)

This is back number’s second single, released on June 22, 2011.

It was also used as the ending theme for TBS’s COUNT DOWN TV in May 2011.

Set over the simple arrangement of a three-piece band, vocalist Iyori Shimizu’s unadorned, slightly languid voice resonates in a very pleasing way, making for a beautifully crafted track.

The A-melody section, in particular, seems perfect for men who are strong in the lower range to really showcase their appeal.

There are parts like the chorus that require slightly higher notes, but rather than using falsetto, pushing your voice a bit and belting it out will make it a song that conveys more emotion.

KANA-BOON “Silhouette” Music Video

This is a refreshingly fast-paced rock number released by KANA-BOON in 2014.

Chosen as the 16th opening theme for the anime Naruto Shippuden, many fans rave that “when it comes to Naruto openings, this is the one!” Perhaps thanks to the anime’s popularity overseas, the music video released exclusively outside Japan surpassed 100 million views in 2020.

Enjoy the youthful, bursting energy of the song and sing it with high spirits!

DOES 'Donten' (TV Tokyo anime 'Gintama' opening theme)

The renowned trio DOES, formed in Fukuoka, rose to nationwide fame thanks to their signature song “Donten,” released in 2008.

It was used as the opening theme for the TV anime Gintama and became a major hit, reaching the top three on the Oricon charts.

The song’s raw, stripped-down guitar sound—made possible by the trio’s minimalist lineup—is incredibly cool, and it’s hugely popular at karaoke.

The rugged, husky vocals and blunt yet moving melody aren’t particularly difficult and are easy to sing, but because the melody doesn’t change much, be mindful to avoid sounding too monotone when you perform it.

Goodbye ElegyMasaki Suda6rank/position

Masaki Suda “Sayonara Elegy”

This is one of Masaki Suda’s signature rock songs, written and composed by Huwie Ishizaki.

The melody is very straightforward and easy to remember, so I think anyone can sing it.

I love this song too and always sing it four keys higher, and it’s more than enough to get the crowd going! The intro is cool right from the start, so it’s guaranteed to hype everyone up there.

Many people have probably heard the chorus as well, so people around you are likely to sing along! As for tricky parts, I’d say the end of the second chorus and the last chorus, where the high G#4 notes keep coming.

It’s kind of heartbreaking if you don’t nail that part, so let’s make it sound awesome! Take a solid breath and resonate the sound inside your mouth.

Try singing as if you’re shooting a beam from your mouth, vibrating the inside as you sing.

Also, to make matters worse, the lyrics there use the harder-to-pronounce “na” and “ma” lines in Japanese, so be conscious of projecting more strongly than you think you need to!

Ballad of a SingerKazuyoshi Saito7rank/position

Kazuyoshi Saito – Ballad of a Singer (2008 Ver.) [Music Video]

A timeless adult classic by Kazuyoshi Saito, celebrated for its deeply moving vocals and rich storytelling.

This exquisite ballad conveys heartfelt emotions for a loved one—feelings that are hard to say out loud—set to song with disarming honesty.

Its simple melody and resonant guitar gently enfold the lyrical world.

Since its release in November 1997, many artists have covered it, and in 2017 it was used as the theme song for the animated film “Lu Over the Wall.” In August 2022, a performance on THE FIRST TAKE drew significant attention, extending its appeal to a new generation.

With a relaxed tempo and a relatively narrow vocal range, it’s easy to sing with ease.

Why not sing it with all your heart, pouring your feelings for someone special into every note?
