[Recommended for men in their 30s] Karaoke songs that got everyone hyped back then (21–30)
ArueBUMP OF CHICKEN
Stable low notes and expressive emotion are key.
If you push too hard in the chorus, you’ll go off pitch, so aim for relaxation and sing lightly—you should be able to score higher that way.
The range is relatively low, making it comfortable for many male singers.
Keep the key as is, and focus on the chorus’s high notes and your sense of rhythm.
During practice, repeatedly listen to the original track and imprint the pitch and rhythm into your body—that’s the fastest route.
For the high parts, ride the rhythm and project with momentum to hit the pitch bar cleanly!
Messenger from Sunday↑THE HIGH-LOWS↓
This is a famous song by The Blue Hearts, who enjoy charismatic popularity in Japan.
With a verse that has almost no melodic variation and an easy-to-sing chorus, it’s not difficult and is a great choice to try at karaoke.
It’s also perfect for people in their 30s, making it a highly recommended karaoke song.
SaudadePorunogurafiti
For PornoGraffitti, their early masterpiece that marked their first No.
1 on the Oricon charts and their first million-seller was Saudade, released in 2000! It boldly incorporates the Latin-flavored sound that has become virtually synonymous with them today, and the song has earned cross-generational popularity—so much so that they performed it on THE FIRST TAKE in 2021, generating a huge buzz.
It’s also a karaoke favorite, and you’ll notice when you actually try singing it that the combination of Latin music and Japanese kayōkyoku works amazingly well and makes it very easy to sing.
Practice while paying attention to the slightly rapid-fire parts and the key change in the latter half!
mirage10-FEET
This is a song by 10-Feet, a band that has established its position as one of Japan’s quintessential orthodox rock groups.
It’s especially familiar to people in their 30s, and thanks to its flashy sound, narrow melodic range, and frequent shouts, it’s an easy track to sing even for those who aren’t confident with pitch.
LOSERYonezu Kenshi
Kenshi Yonezu’s iconic song “LOSER.” The music video drew attention for his own dancing, and the track became one that showcased Yonezu’s artistry to the public.
Though released in 2016, it remains highly popular today, earning strong support not only from people in their 20s but also from those in their 30s.
The track has a somewhat cyber vibe, and despite the title’s “loser” theme, the lyrics are crafted to be uplifting—making it a perfect fit for those in their 30s who often face many challenges in the working world.
The White LoversKuwata Keisuke
As a solo artist, Keisuke Kuwata’s seventh single overall, released in October 2001.
It was used as the song for Coca-Cola’s “No Reason” campaign commercials, in which Kuwata himself appeared, as well as for UNIQLO’s “LifeWear/HEATTECH: Winter Is the Time to Go Outside” commercials.
You could truly call this a staple of late-’90s to early-2000s J-pop.
Many songs from that era are very easy to sing, and this ballad is no exception—it’s something anyone can casually sing and enjoy.
It might even be fun to sing it while doing a Kuwata-style impression, don’t you think?
FlowerORANGE RANGE
Thanks to a recent revival hit, the mixture rock band ORANGE RANGE is now attracting attention from younger generations as well.
They’ve produced many hit numbers, but among them, the song I recommend for men with lower voices is Hana.
It might not sound particularly low at first, but its lowest note is low G, so there are quite a few deep phrases.
The highest note is mid F (F4), which means the overall range is fairly narrow, making it easier to sing for men with lower voices.
