[Recommended for men in their 30s] Karaoke songs that got everyone hyped back then (21–30)
FlowerFujii Kaze
This is singer-songwriter Fujii Kaze’s 14th digital-only single, released in October 2023.
It was reportedly written as the theme song for Fuji TV’s Thursday drama series “My Favorite Flower.” The track is striking for its relaxed yet rhythmic piano riff and Fujii’s delightfully laid-back vocals.
The vocal melody isn’t complicated, making it easy and fun to hum along to, so it’s a great pick for many people to choose casually at karaoke.
For those who aren’t confident about switching registers in the falsetto sections of the chorus, try lowering the key on the karaoke machine before you sing.
The White LoversKeisuke Kuwata
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?
[Recommended for men in their 30s] Karaoke songs that were hits back then (31–40)
Lifetime RespectMiki Dōsan
This is a classic by Dōzan Miki, the most successful Japanese one-hit wonder as a reggae artist.
Its spoken-style delivery and simple melody line make it easy to sing, and the slow-tempo beat is perfect for karaoke.
It can also be used as a performance piece during wedding season in your 30s.
LieSid
No matter the generation, there are surely people who were deeply immersed in visual kei rock bands.
For men in their 30s, many might think of SID as a popular visual kei band.
Their song “Uso” is one of their signature works, and its Japanese-style melody, alongside bands like Kiryu, helped create a distinct movement.
For those unfamiliar with V-kei, the song may be best known as a theme for the anime Fullmetal Alchemist.
It’s a piece that both anime fans and SID fans can get excited about together, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
FlowerKinKi Kids
Flower, the 7th single that was used as the CM song for ANA’s “’99 Paradise Okinawa” campaign and went on to sell over a million copies.
In 2023, 24 years after its release, it also made waves when it was featured in a McDonald’s commercial starring KinKi Kids.
With its narrow vocal range and relaxed tempo and melody, it’s likely easy to sing at karaoke.
This pop tune features a breezy, summery reggae-style ensemble—try singing it while keeping the off-beat groove in mind.
A full moon that only blooms at nightONE OK ROCK
The first major-label masterpiece, Zeitakubyou.
This track, “A Full Moon That Only Blooms at Night,” is included on that classic.
Being an early work, the album has a very strong Japanese rock flavor, and among its songs, this one is exceptionally easy to sing.
The vocal range is narrow at mid1 G# to hi C#, and the pitch movement isn’t too drastic.
However, since there tend to be few natural break points, make sure to plan your breathing spots in advance.
Other than that, there aren’t any particularly difficult sections, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.
Killer tune!Yo Oizumi
It’s a song released exclusively for digital distribution on August 14, 2025, and since it was created as the CM song for “LIVE DAM WAO!,” the theme is karaoke.
It sounds like a track that would really hype people up when you actually sing it at karaoke! Plus, it’s a fresh, uptempo number, so I think it’ll really shine in a karaoke setting.
There are a lot of words in the lyrics, so it’ll probably be easier to sing if you memorize a good portion beforehand.
In particular, the chorus has rap-like, rhyming lines, so once you lock into the rhythm, it should be easier to sing.
If you’re feeling it in 4/4, putting an accent on the first beat of the intro will give it a driving, punchy groove that’s easy to ride.
Rather than trying to articulate every single word, let the lyrics flow with the melody! When you’re learning the song, I recommend humming it—try it while staying relaxed.
