[For men in their 30s] Recommended sure-fire karaoke songs that get the crowd going (1–10)
Nameless PoemMr.Children
Mr.
Children is a four-member rock band that boasts top-tier sales in the J-pop scene and has won numerous music awards.
Their 10th single, “Namona Kiu Uta” (Nameless Song), used as the theme song for the TV drama Pure, is known as one of the band’s signature tracks thanks to its million-selling success.
Its distinctive melodic phrasing makes it fun to sing at karaoke, and for those of a certain generation, it may evoke a sense of nostalgia.
However, because it includes rapid-fire sections and many wide interval jumps, it’s not an easy song—so be sure to review it before performing it in front of others.
7th TriggerNEW!UVERworld
UVERworld is a band that commands overwhelming support from men with their motivational messaging and razor-sharp musicality.
While they have many exhilarating tracks, a lot of them are also quite challenging.
Among them, the one I especially recommend is “7th Trigger.” The vocal range in this song is extremely high, spanning from mid2A to hiF, with the chorus repeatedly hitting hiA to hiD.
It’s a piece that stands out for its sheer height, but since there’s room to lower the key, try tackling it in the key that suits you best.

A song by MONGOL800, a rock band formed in Okinawa in 1998.
Since its release, it has been a long-running hit and has become popular across generations, but those in their 30s may have experienced the Mongol800 craze in real time.
With straightforward lyrics that sing of honest feelings, beautiful harmonies, and a punk-inspired sound, the track resonated especially with young people at the time and became familiar to listeners of all ages.
It has also been covered by many famous artists and is loved by a wide range of listeners.

Its upbeat, high-energy rap is guaranteed to get the crowd going at karaoke.
Along with their previous hit “Junrenka,” it’s a nostalgic song for many in their 30s—definitely give it a try!
