[Recommended for your 20s] Songs that get the crowd going at karaoke | From the latest hits to timeless classics

From the straightforward Heisei-era sound to Reiwa-era masterpieces built around hook-driven, buzz-conscious production, people in their 20s are a generation that has encountered a wide range of music.

Considering both spending power and youth, folks in their 20s are also the age group that probably goes to karaoke the most.

But given the traits of this generation, there are so many hype tracks that many of you might struggle to pick what to sing.

So this time, we’ve selected crowd-pleasers for you in your 20s—pulling from Heisei classics to the latest Reiwa hits!

[Recommended for people in their 20s] Songs that get the crowd going at karaoke | From the latest hits to classics (21–30)

20 years oldONE OK ROCK

While incorporating elements of Western music, the riffs retain a distinctly Japanese rock flavor, creating a work where Japanese and Western contrasts intermingle: “20 years old.” With a range of mid1 G to hi D#, the vocal span is quite narrow for a ONE OK ROCK song.

However, more than the limited range, what truly enhances singability is the chorus’s vocal line.

In rock, it’s standard to ramp the voltage to the max in the chorus, but here the chorus is kept remarkably restrained.

In fact, there are no long sustained notes and no shouts.

It doesn’t require flashy techniques, and the range is narrow, so it’s undoubtedly an easy song to sing.

Watch Me!YOASOBI

YOASOBI「Watch me!」Official Music Video
Watch Me!YOASOBI

It’s a bright, electro-pop-leaning sound with a light beat and a chorus melody that really sticks in your head.

It’s a cute song that feels very YOASOBI, so I’d love for teenage girls to sing it energetically! By the way, it seems the English version was released on May 30, 2025.

Feel free to choose whichever language you like when you sing! The chorus is catchy and easy to remember, but the parts outside the chorus seem tricky… Rather than trying to memorize everything at once, let’s master it step by step.

The overall vocal range is G3–F5, and singing lightly with a bouncy feel without forcing your voice will match the song’s vibe.

If you keep time by tracing a circle with your hand from your brow to above your head while singing, it helps you relax and sing more lightly.

Bending your knees slightly to the rhythm at the same time will help you relax even more, so definitely give it a try!

Ghost Avenue EVE

Set against a floating, dark track, this song by Eve sharply captures the restless emotions of living in the modern age.

Released as a digital single in July 2025, it brilliantly conveys loneliness and alienation—as if you’re the only ghost wandering the city—through an irresistibly catchy melody.

There’s plenty to savor, from the funky bassline to the slightly ennui-tinged vocals.

On nights when you can’t tell anyone how you really feel, why not give this piece a listen?

In conclusion

This time, we picked out songs that get the crowd going at karaoke from two eras—Heisei and Reiwa.

Even though not much time has passed between the late Heisei period and Reiwa, the vibe of Japanese music has changed dramatically, hasn’t it? I think it’s likely because the short-form video culture from platforms like TikTok has made high-impact songs more popular.

But it’s hard to keep up with these kinds of tracks unless you’re always on the lookout.
