BUMP OF CHICKEN’s Easy-to-Sing Songs [Karaoke Picks] (11–20)
HAPPYBUMP OF CHICKEN
This song features the phrase “Happy Birthday” in its lyrics, but when you read them closely, you’ll find it’s packed with words that can also be taken as a cheer for life.
It’s the kind of song that gives you the courage to take one more step when you’re troubled and feel like giving up.
Like other songs by BUMP OF CHICKEN, one of the reasons it’s easy to sing is its relatively narrow range—just a little over one octave.
On top of that, the tempo is relaxed and the melody progresses gently, so even those who aren’t confident in their singing will find it easy to try.
Hammer Song and the Tower of PainBUMP OF CHICKEN
“Hammer Song and the Tower of Pain” is a track included on the album “orbital period,” released in 2007.
While it has a somewhat different vibe from other BUMP OF CHICKEN songs, a look at its story-driven lyrics makes it clear that it’s quintessentially their work.
The song also has a relatively narrow and lower vocal range, making it approachable for those who find high notes difficult.
Additionally, its melody is built on a relaxed rhythm, which I think also makes it easier to sing.
A Person Waiting for a RainbowBUMP OF CHICKEN
It is a song that portrays the hearts of people seeking hope and freedom.
It begins with the image of sounds bursting in and racing through a sleepless night, depicting a stance of seeking warmth while staying close to a cold pain.
Released by BUMP OF CHICKEN in August 2013, the song was also used as the theme for the film “Gatchaman.” Characterized by an upbeat sound that makes extensive use of synthesizers, it is a popular track frequently performed live.
Depicting the process of overcoming hardship to find hope, the piece sings of people who keep moving forward toward the same goal.
It’s a catchy, easy-to-sing song that you should definitely try.
Snow SmileBUMP OF CHICKEN
Among BUMP OF CHICKEN’s songs, Snow Smile is an especially famous and popular ballad.
It portrays the happiness of a couple on a cold, snowy day, along with the bittersweet feeling that such moments have now been lost.
As a ballad, it features a gentle melodic line, without fast-paced lyrics or complex rhythms, making it easy to sing.
Aside from the chorus, most parts sit in the low-to-mid vocal range, so it’s especially recommended for those who are good with lower registers.
The Day I Became a JewelBUMP OF CHICKEN
When people talk about easy-to-sing songs, they often introduce slower, laid-back tracks.
But for those who find upbeat, light rhythms easier to sing, this song is a great recommendation.
While the melody line conveys a fresh, breezy feel, the lyrics express feelings for a loved one who is no longer by your side, along with the resolve to keep moving forward even without them.
The vocal range is narrow and the key is adjustable, but there are a few interval jumps in the chorus, so keep that in mind as you sing.
ColonyBUMP OF CHICKEN
This stylish ballad featuring piano sounds is “Colony,” which was also used in the film Parasyte: Part 2.
The lyrics focus on life and portray a weakened self.
The song progresses with a calm, gentle melody throughout, spans about an octave and a half, and should be relatively easy to sing.
However, since the beginning and end consist of piano accompaniment only, be mindful of keeping a steady rhythm.
It’s especially recommended for those who struggle with up-tempo songs or tracks with wide, rapid pitch changes.

Song of a FriendBUMP OF CHICKEN
“Tomodachi no Uta” is a moving ballad with a pleasant melody and touching lyrics.
The words, which express feelings for a friend living far away, are quite moving and likely resonate with many listeners.
The song’s vocal range is just over one octave—fairly narrow—and the pitches sit comfortably within a range that most men can sing.
Combined with its relaxed tempo and simple melody, it should be easy to sing.
Because the range is narrow, if high notes are difficult, you can lower the key.
