Japanese pop songs that are easy for teenage boys to sing at karaoke (31–40)

rayBUMP OF CHICKEN

BUMP OF CHICKEN’s hit song “ray.” It’s their first single in seven months since the previous release, “Niji wo Matsu Hito,” so it’s a track that holds special meaning for fans.

Amid its pop melody, you can feel a passionate warmth.

While the melody feels intense, it surprisingly has few high notes, making it an easy song to sing even for men whose voices have recently changed.

It’s sure to lift your spirits! There’s also a version of “ray” featuring Hatsune Miku, so be sure to check that out too!

Hirai Dai’s new song “Summer Princess.” This work is wrapped in his signature fresh yet gentle melody.

As for the vocal range, it’s not exactly narrow, but it’s not particularly wide either.

There’s one part in the chorus where falsetto appears, but it’s set at a height where your voice naturally flips into falsetto, so it’s not that difficult.

If you still find it tough, try lowering the key by one and boldly sing it in your chest voice.

Don’t worry about trying to sing it perfectly—just sing it with feeling.

The song also gained attention for being used in Tokyo Metro commercials.

It’s a song defined by a wistful melody and lyrics that resonate deeply.

Centered on themes of the struggles of living, self-reflection, and the yearning for a brighter future, it celebrates the importance of finding small joys in everyday life.

Released in November 2021, this track is included on PEOPLE 1’s second EP, “GANG AGE,” showcasing the band’s musical range.

With its relaxed tempo, it’s easy to sing and perfect for casual fun at karaoke—why not try it at your next get-together with friends? Its profound lyrics are sure to touch listeners’ hearts.

LemonKenshi Yonezu

A song by singer-songwriter Kenshi Yonezu, written specifically as the theme for the TV drama “Unnatural.” Recognized across generations through its role as a drama theme, over 100 million video views, and a performance at the 2018 NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen, this track can be considered a karaoke favorite that everyone can sing along to.

Overall, the key is low and the song is easy to sing, but be careful—if you let your guard down, your voice may go sharp during the high notes in the chorus.

Also, because the rhythm has a bounce, being able to feel and ride the rhythm will help you stand out at karaoke, so it’s a good idea to listen closely at home before you go.

This is a song by Masaki Suda, who is also active as a popular actor.

It was released in 2018 as his fourth single.

There aren’t any phrases that require particularly high notes, so I recommend it.

It was also used as the theme song for the animated film My Hero Academia: Two Heroes.

RPGSEKAI NO OWARI

A song by SEKAI NO OWARI, a four-member co-ed rock band also known by the nickname “SekaOwa.” It’s a fun number featuring lyrics and a musical style that evoke a sense of fantasy—something symbolic of the band—as well as instrumentation not commonly used by typical rock bands.

The melody doesn’t swing wildly up and down, and the key isn’t too high, making it easy to sing and a great crowd-pleaser at karaoke.

With its theme of adventure with friends, it’s definitely a song you’ll want to sing at karaoke with your buddies.
