[2025] A roundup of cool Western songs that get the crowd going at karaoke (91–100)
I Drink WineAdele
For women who are confident singers, Adele—renowned for her soulful voice—has songs you’ll want to try at karaoke at least once.
That said, the long sustained notes in signature tracks like Hello can be tough to master.
In those cases, I recommend I Drink Wine.
Among Adele’s songs, its key isn’t that high and there are fewer long notes, making it easier to sing at karaoke.
Why not make your Adele debut with this track?
yes, and?Ariana Grande
American pop star Ariana Grande released her new single “Yes, And?” on January 12, 2024, as the lead single from her seventh album.
The track brings a fresh breeze roughly three years after her previous work, Positions.
“Yes, And?” nods to Beyoncé’s Renaissance and Madonna’s Vogue, blending genres from disco to house music, and is marked by incisive lyrics that serve as a response to personal challenges and criticism.
In particular, the line “my tongue is sacred and I speak whatever I please” reflects her commitment to authenticity and carries a message that encourages listeners to embrace themselves.
“Yes, And?” can be seen as a rallying cry not only for younger generations but also for anyone troubled by everyday criticism or negative opinions around them.
Radiating a new era’s confidence and positivity from the ever-vocally-gifted Ariana, this song deserves a spot in your karaoke repertoire—belt it out powerfully with friends!
Don’t Look Back in AngerOasis
If you want to try singing Western songs at karaoke but don’t have the courage yet, I recommend “Don’t Look Back in Anger.” It was released in 1996 by Oasis, a rock band from Manchester, England, and its moving sound and rock performance have been loved across generations.
Many Japanese musicians have been influenced by them in their songwriting, so among Western songs, it has an easy-to-listen-to melody.
It’s mid-tempo and has lots of rhymes in the lyrics, so with a bit of practice you’ll get good at it! If you can sing it at karaoke, you’ll have everyone’s eyes on you.
Anti-HeroTaylor Swift
Taylor Swift, the American singer-songwriter known for her hit “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.” She’s so famous that anyone who likes Western music is sure to know her, and her straightforward singing style makes her a reliable choice for karaoke—you can’t go wrong.
Among her songs, “Anti-Hero” has a relatively low key and no long sustained notes.
Because of that, it’s recommended as a first song for those who’ve never sung Western music at karaoke.
Also, since it includes low-register parts, it might be a good pick for women who find it easier to sing in a lower range.
Hand in My PocketAlanis Morissette
Peaked at No.
6 in the UK in 1995.
Included on the third album, Jagged Little Pill, which sold 33 million copies worldwide.
Word is she’s set to visit Japan soon for the first time in 13 years.
She was like a queen of ’90s alternative.
As the lyrics of this song show, she was a role model for the so-called “cool woman,” and it seems that hasn’t changed even now.
HoudiniDua Lipa
Dua Lipa’s “Houdini” is a mid-tempo dance track that portrays a complicated romance.
Its biggest draw is a blend of psychedelia and nu-disco, highlighted by a groovy bassline that’s essential for getting the crowd going at karaoke.
The chorus features a catchy repeated phrase, making it fun to sing even for those who aren’t confident in their vocal skills.
As Dua Lipa sets her course toward psychedelia, this single—cut from her last disco-influenced album—is likely to become a long-loved staple.
As It WasHarry Styles
When it comes to mellow tracks that make everyone sway without thinking, As It Was fits the bill.
Released in 2022 by singer Harry Styles, who also thrives as an actor, its soft, airy synth tones resonate and gently lift everyone’s mood.
It’s also great to sing along while swaying to the modern beat.
The song features vocals delivered in a conversational tone, so relax and aim for a smooth, supple performance.
How about singing this love song filled with warm feelings for that special someone?
