DaylightDavid Kushner
With the spread of social media, more people are getting into Western music, and karaoke now offers a wider range of international songs.
In this modern scene, one artist to watch is American singer-songwriter David Kushner.
His track “Daylight” has gained popularity—especially among younger listeners—through TikTok.
Its robust melody and lyrics have gripped many listeners’ hearts.
A key appeal of the song lies in its vocal line, which really showcases the lower register.
While it may be challenging for many women to sing, it tends to sound good for lower-voiced men even without advanced techniques like vibrato or ad-libs.
If you’re a man who struggles with high notes, why not give this song a try at karaoke?
Brand New LoverDead Or Alive
Dead or Alive, a beloved national band from the UK.
They’ve even performed in Japan, so I’m sure they have many fans here.
A song of theirs that’s great for karaoke is “Brand New Lover.” It’s a disco-style dance track with a bouncy, comfortable beat.
Not only is it perfect for dancing, but it also has spots where you can add call-and-response parts, making it really exciting.
The same phrases appear repeatedly, so the lyrics are easy to memorize—that’s another plus.
SeptemberEarth, Wind & Fire
Earth, Wind & Fire is a funk group with worldwide popularity.
They’re hugely popular in Japan too, and this song gets sung often on karaoke apps.
It’s a guaranteed crowd-pleaser at karaoke, but many people find the falsetto parts difficult.
If you struggle with falsetto, you might be pushing too much air—try deliberately tightening your throat.
Think of producing a voice like Korosuke from Kiteretsu Encyclopedia.
Doing so will help you create a pro-sounding, funky falsetto, so give it a try.
Heartbreak AnniversaryGiveon
Since his debut in 2018, Giveon has been releasing one hit after another.
Among his songs, the one I especially recommend as a karaoke pick is “Heartbreak Anniversary.” As the title suggests, the song portrays the day of a breakup as an anniversary.
The lyrics are sad, but if you sing it gently and at an easy pace, it can feel like a warm, tender piece.
Also, Giveon is said to draw inspiration from Frank Sinatra’s vocal style.
Why not try imitating that?
Heat WavesGlass Animals
Glass Animals are a rock band that’s drawing global attention with their distinctive sound infused with electronica.
One of their signature songs, Heat Waves, was released in 2020.
Its synths resonate with an ambient vibe.
Since the vocals feature crisp accents, focusing on dynamic, well-shaped breaths is the key.
It’s a deep track that can turn a karaoke room into a chill space.
Deliver a cool vocal performance and get the karaoke buzzing!
Princess DianaIce Spice & Nicki Minaj
Princess Diana, a collaboration between Ice Spice and Nicki Minaj, is a perfect pick to get the crowd going with Western pop at karaoke.
The song portrays strong women and features a striking, groove-filled bassline.
Its rhythmic rap stands out and reflects the latest trends in hip-hop.
The aggressive lyrics can be downright exhilarating.
Definitely give it a try when you want to hype up the karaoke vibes.
MakebaJAIN
The classic song “Makeba” has been attracting attention as a highly addictive track.
It’s a song by French singer-songwriter Jain, released in 2015.
It received high acclaim, including a nomination for the Grammy Award for Best Music Video.
The track has been back in the spotlight since 2023 after being used in dance videos on TikTok.
With its simple title phrase repeated throughout, it’s easy to remember and sing along to.
Be sure to check it out.
