[75th NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen Performance Song] Odoriko / Vaundy: Music Video

Among Vaundy’s works, Dancer is renowned as one of his finest songs.

While he now releases many tracks that highlight powerful vocals, back then he tended to put out songs featuring soft, dream pop–like vocals.

This track is no exception, with a vocal line in that vein.

Perhaps the most singable aspect is its narrow vocal range.

It’s compact enough that you don’t need to hit high notes at all, with few long sustained tones and little demand for volume, making it easy even for teenage boys whose voices are changing.

YOASOBI “Gunjou” Official Music Video

When singing karaoke with friends, it’s great to choose songs with a youth theme.

One recommendation is “Gunjou.” This song, released by YOASOBI in 2020, is also known as the set piece for a dance video project aimed at high school students.

The lyrics express both the hardships and the brilliance of dedicating yourself to something, so try singing it while reminiscing about your school days.

Keep the first half restrained, and adjust so that the pitch reaches its highest point in the final chorus.

sumika / Wish [Music Video]

This is the fourth major-label and ninth overall single by the Japanese rock band sumika, released in December 2019.

It was also written as the theme song for the TV Asahi drama “Ossan’s Love: In the Sky.” Although it’s in a bright major key, it carries a touch of melancholy, resulting in a song that really tugs at the heart.

While it features male vocals, if you adjust the key to suit your range for karaoke, it’s a track anyone can enjoy singing, regardless of gender.

The melody is simple, so even those who aren’t confident singers should be fine.

There are parts, like in the chorus, where the lyrics move a bit quickly, so be careful not to fall behind the rhythm!

Kyary Pamyu Pamyu – Ninja Re Bang Bang

This is Kyary Pamyu Pamyu’s fifth single overall, released in March 2013.

It was used as the CM song for KDDI and Okinawa Cellular’s “au Turn surprise into common sense.

‘FULL CONTROL/REAL’” commercial.

Just listening to it puts you in a fun mood—it’s a slightly comical track! There’s no need for any difficult explanations to sing this cheerful song.

You can have fun by mimicking the slightly Vocaloid-style vocal production, or enjoy it as a group sing-along with everyone there.

In any case, ride the rhythm, raise your voice, and just enjoy singing!

Tightly. / Mosawo. [Music Video]

Singer-songwriter Mosawo, who is popular for her gentle lyrics and musicality that resonate with Gen Z.

Her hallmark is a whisper voice—soft vocals laced with breath—and all her works are crafted to make the most of that tone.

Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is Gyutto.

Most of the track sits in the mid-range, so as long as you match the key, anyone can sing it comfortably.

The vocal line is also calm, without abrupt jumps in pitch.

Sure thing / Kocchino Kento MV

Singing the latest hits can show you’re on trend, but classic anthems are still essential for getting the crowd going at karaoke.

That’s why we recommend “Hai Yorokonde.” It’s often seen as high and difficult, but that’s only if you try to replicate the falsetto in the chorus; the highest chest note is mid2 F#, which isn’t particularly high.

The song is guaranteed to hype up the room, but since it has many rapid-fire lyrics, make sure you identify your breathing spots in advance.

ZUTOMAYO - “Bite the Second Hand” Music Video (Zutto Mayonaka de Iinoni. – Byoushin wo Kamu)

Zutomayo’s famous song “Byoushin wo Kamu” has super cool instrumentals in the back, and the vocal melody has an easy-to-follow build, so it’s a really cool song if you can sing it! I’ve worked on this song several times in vocal training lessons, and I found the rhythm surprisingly tricky.

In the A verse, the length of the held notes and the timing of when the melody comes in are difficult unless you’re really locking into the beat.

If you listen closely, it shouldn’t be a problem, so try singing along with the original track repeatedly.

Also, the high note in the chorus goes up to E5, so you really need to be conscious of accents or it won’t come out easily.

First, sing slowly and check which lyrics you’ll accent.

There are quite a few high notes throughout the chorus, so it’s good to keep those accents in mind all the way to the end.
