[Recommended for men in their 30s] Karaoke songs that were a hit back then (51–60)
far; distant; by farSpitz
Needless to say, Spitz have countless masterpieces and are hugely popular at karaoke, but many people feel intimidated by melodies sung in Masamune Kusano’s clear, high-tone vocals.
The 2001 release Haruka introduced here is, of course, sung in a range that can be tough for those who can’t hit high notes, but the melodic rises and falls aren’t that drastic and the line stays relatively steady, so lowering the key makes it quite manageable even for lower voices.
If you find yourself struggling partway through the soaring chorus, I recommend learning to sing with proper diaphragmatic breathing to avoid straining your throat.
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.
Bridge of Gloryyuzu
This is an uplifting anthem that powerfully portrays the pursuit of dreams and hope, and it is one of Yuzu’s signature songs, widely loved as NHK’s official theme for the Athens Olympics.
Carried by the soothing sound of acoustic guitars, it gently sings of hidden tears and the journey continued despite uncertainty.
It topped the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart, and since its release in July 2004, it has continued to warm the hearts of many.
With a leisurely melody, the song has a comfortable vocal range and is easy to sing at karaoke.
It’s a heartwarming message song that stands beside those who work hard every day, those who face difficulties, and those about to take a new step in life—why not give it a try?
Full-Power BoySukima Switch
Takuya Ohashi’s gentle yet powerful vocals blend beautifully with the fresh sound of the acoustic guitar.
Centered on themes of growth and challenge, the song tenderly reminds us of the importance of not forgetting the pure feelings in our hearts, even as we become adults.
Released in April 2004 as the fifth single, it became beloved across generations as an NTT DoCoMo commercial song.
It was also included on the album “Kuusou Clip,” released the same year, and achieved steady sales.
With its relaxed tempo and a melody carried by stable pitch, it seeps into the heart alongside fond memories.
As a refreshing classic that anyone can enjoy, it will continue to linger in the hearts of many.

MUSIC FOR THE PEOPLEV6
V6, an idol group that was hugely popular from the 1990s to the early 2000s, produced many hit songs.
Among them, the one I especially recommend to men in their 40s for its singability is “MUSIC FOR THE PEOPLE.” Centered on eurobeat, which was the trend at the time, the track features sharp, memorable synthesizers.
In contrast to the sound, the vocal lines are quite restrained, staying within a narrow range throughout.
It’s packed with catchy phrases that anyone can sing, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
Like a white cloudSaru Iwa Ishi
The comedy duo Saruganseki, made up of Hiroiki Ariyoshi and Kazunari Moriwaki.
The song that truly cemented their then idol-like popularity is, of course, Shiroi Yuki no Yō ni (Like White Snow).
As a composition, it’s a very orthodox J-pop number with a very narrow vocal range.
Since the two aren’t professional singers, the vocal lines present no real difficulty.
It’s also a crowd-pleaser at karaoke, so be sure to check it out.
to youMONGOL800
It’s one of the signature songs by the Japanese band MONGOL800, but apparently it has never been released as a single.
After it was used in a commercial for Lion’s “TOP” detergent, the album MESSAGE, which includes the track, became a huge hit.
It’s a very upbeat, catchy rock song that anyone can easily sing along to and enjoy.
Don’t worry about singing it perfectly—just ride the groove, belt it out, and have fun! It might be great to have everyone there join in a big sing-along for the chorus!
