[Recommended for men in their 30s] Karaoke songs that hyped everyone up back then (91–100)
First loveMotohiro Hata
It’s Motohiro Hata’s 14th single, released in January 2013.
It was also selected as the official image song for the Fukuoka exhibition of “100 Years Since the ‘Discovery’ of Machu Picchu: Inca Empire Exhibition.” It’s a beautiful ballad.
Because Hata’s voice is a bit high and it’s a ballad, I think quite a few people who aren’t confident singers may feel hesitant to try this song.
However, the actual melodic range isn’t that wide, so as long as you choose the right key, many people should be able to sing it without much trouble.
Rather than aiming for a perfectly clean falsetto or mixed voice, I feel that even if it’s a bit of a push, belting it out in chest voice might make it a performance that “really reaches the listener.”
REACHING FOR THE SKYMAN WITH A MISSION
MAN WITH A MISSION is a rock band that continues to draw popularity with their sharp, punchy sound.
They’re a mid-career band, but since they’re still active on the front lines, I think many teenage boys are familiar with them.
Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is REACHING FOR THE SKY.
Despite its exhilarating melody, the piece actually has a surprisingly narrow vocal range, and aside from the sustained long note at the end of the chorus, there aren’t even any mid-to-high notes.
The vocal line also works fine even if sung a bit rough, making it an ideal choice for teenage boys whose voices may still be unstable.

When the cherry blossoms bloomRyota Fujimaki
Ryota Fujimaki, known as the vocalist of Remioromen, is now also actively working as a solo artist and has produced several notable songs.
Among his tracks, the one I especially recommend is Sakura no Hana ga Saku Koro (When the Cherry Blossoms Bloom).
Perhaps because his musical style hasn’t changed, this piece has a classic J-pop finish.
The vocal range is about average, and since there are no sudden pitch jumps or advanced techniques required, it’s definitely a song where it’s easy to aim for a perfect score.
Together foreverKobukuro
Eternally With You, a song beloved as a wedding classic, was released in 2004 as a double A-side single along with Million Films.
The song was written by Kentaro Kobuchi for a friend’s wedding.
Its simple, easy-to-remember melody makes it very singable, so even those who aren’t confident at karaoke can give it a try.
The harmony part isn’t too difficult either, so it could be great to practice as a duo and perform as a wedding reception entertainment.
Theory of the Mindful HeartRADWIMPS
They may still be at the forefront of the scene, so people might not be that conscious of it, but for men in their early thirties, RADWIMPS could be called a band of their generation.
RADWIMPS has produced many classic songs, and among them, Yushinron is likely a particularly memorable track for men in their thirties.
This piece embodies the early RADWIMPS signature with a strong rock-oriented sound.
The vocal line itself isn’t all that rock-flavored and doesn’t span a wide range, so even those who aren’t confident in their singing ability should be able to handle it without issue.
I’ve always liked you.Kazuyoshi Saito
A lyrical love song filled with memories and lingering feelings from youth.
The gentle tones of the acoustic guitar and a voice that resonates in the heart quietly convey unfulfilled feelings and a love that passed by.
Kazuyoshi Saito’s tender vocals and guitar beautifully express nostalgia for the past and the emotions of the present.
Released in April 2010, it drew attention as the theme song for Shiseido’s IN&ON series commercials.
Since February 2017, it has also been used in Ito En’s “Oi Ocha” commercials, continuing to comfort many listeners.
It’s a song you’ll want to hum at class reunions or during long-awaited get-togethers, wrapped in fond memories.
Sing it with friends at karaoke, and its universally relatable lyrics will warm everyone’s hearts.
Baby BabyGing Nang Boyz
Ging Nang BOYZ is a rock band led by Kazunobu Mineta, a figure often called a charismatic presence in Japan’s rock scene.
Did you know that “BABY BABY,” included on the album “Kimi to Boku no Daisanji Sekai Taisen-teki Renai Kakumei,” is a song that has been performed since their predecessor band, GOING STEADY? Its lyrics weave poetic lines into a straightforward message, creating impact alongside catchy phrases.
With its hooky melody, it’s fun to sing and a rock tune that really fires up the room at karaoke.
