Choo Choo TRAINEXILE
If you want to hype up the karaoke room with an EXILE song, you can’t leave out “Choo Choo TRAIN”! It’s no exaggeration to say everyone knows this track—it’s the song that catapulted EXILE to fame and a true emblem of its era.
With its fun, infectious rhythm and the signature “spinning dance” moves that anyone can imitate, it’s a number you can enjoy solo or with a group, singing and dancing together.
While EXILE is known for their strong vocals, this song’s melody line is simple and easy to sing, and its high recognition factor guarantees excitement.
It’s a massive hit that’s perfect for unleashing pure joy while you sing.
Sun of Lovekururi
A single by Quruli released in March 2023.
It was pre-released in February and was also chosen as the theme song for the Netflix film “Call Me Chihiro.” It’s a simple, medium-tempo pop-rock song that’s very easy to groove to.
The vocal melody line is also very straightforward and easy to hum, so it should be relatively manageable for anyone to shoot for a perfect 100 at karaoke.
Listen closely to the original, study where to sustain notes, where to cut them off, and how to do so, and give that perfect score a try.
YOUKobukuro
“YOU” is filled with love for someone special.
It was released in 2001 as a double A-side single along with “miss you.” Because it has a shuffle rhythm, you might find the timing a bit tricky at first, but if you listen closely to the original and lock into the groove, you’ll be able to sing it joyfully with no problem.
Even if the rhythm feels challenging, the melody itself is easy to remember and sing.
The key isn’t very high either, so if you’re comfortable with higher notes you can sing it in the original key, and if you have a lower voice, lowering it by one or two semitones will make it easier to sing.
Line(s) of dialogueMasaki Suda
“Serifu,” included on Masaki Suda’s first album PLAY.
The song was written and composed by singer-songwriter Huwie Ishizaki.
It’s a track about heartbreak and a sorrowful male perspective; while putting on a tough front, you can really feel how deeply he loved her.
The melody has relatively few big pitch changes and tends to sit in a lower range overall, making it easier to sing for those who struggle with high notes.
The phrasing has a bit of a distinctive twist, so it’s worth practicing that part.
Wonderful DaysUnicorn
Unicorn’s classic song “Subarashii Hibi.” For those in their late 30s, the members of Unicorn were probably objects of admiration, weren’t they? Their unadorned, natural style is truly cool.
As one of Unicorn’s signature works, this song features a refreshing melody that conveys a youthful spirit within an ennui-tinged atmosphere.
The vocal line has a narrow range and doesn’t require particularly difficult techniques, making it a very easy song to sing.
Easy★RiderTamio Okuda
This is Tamio Okuda’s sixth single in total, released in June 1996.
It’s one of the great J-POP/J-ROCK tracks where Okuda’s distinctly “masculine” vocals and character are on full display.
The way the Hammond organ is used in the backing track is quite superb, too—it’s the kind of sound that just feels good to listen to, don’t you think? His slightly unadorned vocal delivery also captures his personality well, which is part of the song’s appeal.
Now, if you pick this song for karaoke and want to make it sound good, the vocal melody is very singable and easy to remember, so what becomes important is expressing a solid sense of rhythm and groove.
Try to sing with a strong awareness of the snare accents on beats 2 and 4, so the vocal rhythm doesn’t rush.
SUMMER TIME LOVEEXILE
This song is perfect for anyone who wants to dive headfirst into the summer vibe.
“SUMMER TIME LOVE” vividly captures the feeling of summer and a summer romance, with lyrics that express the desire to enjoy the season together with someone you love.
It’s an exceptional pick for summer karaoke.
The dynamic arrangement and the sweet, husky voices of EXILE weave a melody you’ll find yourself humming before you know it.
Even if EXILE’s songs seem difficult, this one has an easy-to-sing melody—so relax and sing it straight from the heart!
