Easy-to-sing songs recommended for teen boys with low voices | Singable even during voice change! (1–10)
Run, SAKAMOTOVaundy
Vaundy is one of the most active singer-songwriters right now.
He has produced many hit songs, and recently he’s delivered another major hit: “Hashire SAKAMOTO.” It’s the theme song for the anime SAKAMOTO DAYS, with a strong rock flavor throughout.
The overall vocal range is narrow, and there aren’t parts that alternate between falsetto and chest voice, so even men with lower voices should be able to sing it without any problem.
SunYorushika
Just because a man has a low voice doesn’t mean he can’t sing songs originally for female vocalists.
Regardless of gender, what matters is the song’s vocal range.
If the range falls within a certain span, you can sing it without issues by adjusting to the appropriate key.
With that in mind, I recommend Taiyō.
It’s a masterpiece by Yorushika with a very narrow vocal range.
If you set it to the right key, even men with low voices can sing it comfortably, and since the vocal line is simple, consider adding it to your repertoire.
DRESSING ROOMNatori
Natori is a male singer who has gained popularity for his downer-style singing.
Although his voice still retains a youthful quality, his standout feature is his low-register vocals.
This track, “DRESSING ROOM,” is a piece that makes full use of Natori’s deep tones.
Because the song as a whole stays within a narrow and low vocal range, even teenage boys whose voices may be unstable due to voice changes can sing it without issue.
It’s a stylish song that’s well-received by women, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
Bunny GirlAKASAKI
You can’t go a day without hearing the song “Bunny Girl” on platforms like TikTok and Instagram.
It’s a signature track by the young singer-songwriter AKASAKI, known for its light, breezy melody.
In contrast to its bright and airy feel, the song’s vocal line is crafted with a very narrow range.
Because the pitch movement is very gentle, anyone can sing it in chest voice.
Even men with very low voices should be able to sing it without issue in the right key, so considering how well it’s received, it’s definitely worth adding to your repertoire.
ColorfulAMUGIRI
Popular YouTubers, Komudotto.
They may not be as explosively popular as they once were, but they are still widely supported—especially by teenage girls—so many teenage boys are likely familiar with them as well.
Among the songs by AMUGIRI, a member of Komudotto, the one I particularly recommend for men with lower voices is “Colorful.” It has a narrow vocal range, and the vocal lines are gently constructed with little fluctuation.
If you adjust it to the appropriate key, even boys going through voice change should be able to sing it without issue, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
Life is BeautifulASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION
Some teenage boys may be interested in Japanese music from a decade or two ago.
In particular, teens who follow the Japanese rock scene are probably digging into older bands.
That’s why I recommend Life Is Beautiful.
It’s the latest release from ASIAN KUNG-FU GENERATION, who were hugely active in the 2000s, and it has a refreshing, soft overall vibe.
While the vocal range isn’t exactly narrow, aside from a brief falsetto in the chorus, it’s actually quite limited.
The vocal line doesn’t require vibrato, so as long as you can control your pitch and hold long notes, you can aim for a high score at karaoke.
When love endsRin-ne
Rin-ne is a rapper who enjoys overwhelming support from young people.
He’s not what you’d call a hardcore underground rapper; he’s an overground artist who often sings about love, and his pop sensibilities have made him especially popular among teenage girls.
His classic track “Koi ga Owareba” (When Love Ends) is captivating for its lyrics that portray the bittersweet side of romance and its delicate vocal lines.
Because the rap is mellow, melody plays a strong role, but all parts sit low and there aren’t any drastic pitch jumps, so teenage boys with lower voices should be able to handle it without trouble.
It’s also a big hit with girls, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.
