Tokyo ON #014: Karaoke Supernova

No discussion of music in Japan would be complete without talking about karaoke. One of the country’s many musical gifts to the world, it is not just about belting out classics with your friend, but it is an essential part of the social infrastructure here.

Your regular hosts Royce and Mac, who spend far too much time at karaoke, guide us through some of the all-time most popular tracks of the Tokyo locals, as well as their own favourites with songs by Hitoto Yo, Kyu Sakamoto, supercell and more.

Wrestle the mic away from your friends and join in with this episode of Tokyo ON.

Listen here!
