Yuzu songs that are easy to sing. A must-see for men with high voices! (1–10)
Summer Colorsyuzu
Yuzu’s songs have a refreshing feel, and the tracks that make the most of their folk duo qualities are especially popular.
Among them, Natsuiro is a quintessential example, known for its simple melody.
To bring out the uplifting energy typical of Yuzu’s music, those clear, soaring high notes are essential.
Try lowering the key so you can sing it comfortably and enhance the song’s sense of exhilaration.
Rather than forcing the high notes, focus on singing smoothly and expansively.
Also, one big recommendation is that this song is widely known and perfect for a big sing-along with everyone!

Yuzu’s songs are moving, and many of them are perfect for those moments at karaoke when you want people to really listen.
Their song “Niji” is well-known as a Nippon Life commercial tune, so many people have heard it, and it’s recognized across generations.
It’s also popular as a pep song that gives courage to listeners when sung at karaoke, making it perfect for scenes where you want to convey a positive message.
The track is characterized by Iwasawa’s high harmonies; if two men who are good at singing high notes perform it together, it’s sure to draw attention.
Goodbye Busyuzu
Released in 1999, Yuzu’s fifth single “Sayonara Bus” is a heartbreak song that still conveys Yuzu’s signature freshness.
Its beautiful choral work enhances the song’s appeal.
Chosen with the male vocal range in mind, it’s structured to be relatively easy for men with an average range to sing, delivering the comfort of folk while still being a crowd-pleaser for karaoke.
The balance of bittersweet yet refreshing lyrics and a simple melody is quintessentially Yuzu, making this a representative track that distills their hallmark simplicity.
somedayyuzu
A song that probably every J-POP fan knows, right? “Itsuka,” released in 1999, has a powerful appeal that resonates across generations.
At first listen it may seem difficult, but it actually has a relatively singable melody line and is one of Yuzu’s easier songs to try.
It’s especially recommended if high notes aren’t your strong point.
On top of that, the harmony where the two voices intersect is highly satisfying.
You can enjoy it solo, of course, but singing it with friends and harmonizing makes it an even more compelling karaoke song.
A bird that cannot flyyuzu
Yuzu’s biggest hit song, “Tobenai Tori” (“Flightless Bird”).
Released in 2000, it was also used as the theme song for the TV drama “Namida o Fuite.” From the A-melody up to just before the chorus, the vocal range stays relatively low, but it shifts into higher notes as the chorus heats up—the soaring high tones are the highlight.
It’s a song I highly recommend for those who are confident with high notes and would love to sing.
With moving lyrics that resonate deeply, it captivates listeners.
It’s also a great pick-me-up when you’re feeling down, and a song to try singing when you want to encourage someone.
Platform 3yuzu
Yuzu’s 17th single, “Track 3,” released in 2003.
The melody line is very simple, it can be sung in a steady, understated way, and the pitch is on the lower side, making it an easy song to try even for those who find Yuzu’s songs difficult to sing.
It may be less well-known than some of their other tracks, but this song has other recommended points: there’s handclapping in the backing, so it’s easy for everyone to clap along and get excited at karaoke, and the song is under two minutes long—nice and short.
The lyrics, which many people working hard every day can relate to, are also appealing.
Until we meet againyuzu
This song, which was also used as an ending theme for Doraemon, is popular among children.
“Mata Aeru Hi Made” is characterized by simple, easy-to-understand lyrics, and in fact, its lyrics were collected from children and compiled by Yujin Kitagawa, which gives it a certain nostalgic and slightly bittersweet feel.
The track is packed with Yuzu’s signature charm, letting you fully enjoy their warm atmosphere and gentle melody.
Its approachable vocal range and clear melodic line make it easy for men to sing as well.
It’s also recommended if you’re looking for a song to sing together with kids.
