[For Men in Their 30s] Karaoke Scoring: Songs That Are Easy to Get High Marks On (41–50)

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.

Nothing’s Carved In Stone, formed around Shinichi Ubukata of ELLEGARDEN and Hidekazu Hinata of STRAIGHTENER, made their debut in 2009.

They boast the popularity to sell out shows at Nippon Budokan and have already built a career of over 15 years, but their song “May,” released in May 2025, is currently drawing attention.

The band’s signature emotional guitar sound and the melody delivered by Taku Muramatsu’s powerful yet wistful vocals hint at the birth of a new anthem.

When singing it at karaoke, aim for clear enunciation and try to savor each lyric as you sing.

HAPPY Kazuyoshi Saito

Kazuyoshi Saito is a renowned singer-songwriter with a career spanning over 30 years, admired by many fellow musicians for his unique, uncompromising stance that resists trends.

A devoted Loudness fan and former metalhead in his youth, Saito possesses a broad musical range that defies categorization, excelling in rock, pop, and ballads alike.

His subtly awkward, deeply expressive vocals and lyrics are also irresistibly appealing.

Released in April 2025, Saito’s “HAPPY” is an anthemic track propelled by rough-edged guitar sounds, written as the theme song for the TV program “Saturday LIVE News Zigzag.” It’s a song you’ll definitely want to try at karaoke: its wistfully moving melody is sure to resonate across generations.

The rapid-fire vocal line that appears in the chorus takes a bit of practice, but once you get used to it, it isn’t difficult—so sing it repeatedly until you can deliver it smoothly!

In conclusion

This time, we introduced songs that make it easier for men in their 30s to score high at karaoke.

Perhaps because it was the heyday of Japanese rock, I think there ended up being a relatively large number of bands in the lineup.

Japanese rock from that era tends to have simpler compositions than today’s, so if you look, there are still plenty of songs where you can aim for a high score.
