Breakup songs that female college students will want to sing at karaoke

LOVE Tear-ColoredAya Matsuura

Aya Matsuura – LOVE, the Color of Tears [Music Video]

It’s Aya Matsuura’s 3rd single.

It’s a heartbreak song with a bittersweet yet powerful feel that gradually resonates in your heart, so I recommend listening to it while reading the lyrics.

It’s also well-known, so I think it’ll be a hit if you sing it at karaoke.

DaysAyumi Hamasaki

Ayumi Hamasaki / Days (Short Ver.)

Among Ayumi Hamasaki’s breakup songs, this one conveys sadness especially strongly—it’s a tearjerker you can’t listen to without crying.

The music video is heartbreaking too, and both the song and visuals will move you to tears.

It’s the perfect track for when you want to sink into the mood of heartbreak.

Try singing it at karaoke while watching the music video.

Cheer up!Mariya Takeuchi

Cheer Up – Mariya Takeuchi

It’s a timeless classic loved across generations, and since many artists have covered it, I think many of you have heard it.

Rather than for someone who’s just gone through a breakup to listen to themselves, it’s a song I recommend for encouraging a friend who has.

Please use this song to cheer up your friend who’s been hurt.

Jewelry dayAyaka

Ayaka – Jewelry Day

When it comes to Ayaka’s music, she has songs for all kinds of situations—from gentle, soothing tracks to bright and uplifting ones.

This particular song evokes a strong sense of poignancy; it lets you linger in the feelings of heartbreak while also offering comfort.

Be sure to listen—and try singing it, too.

Goodbye, my beloved.Hana*Hana

Sayonara Daisuki Na Hito by Hana-Hana – a J official video.flv

Many of you have probably heard it somewhere before.

As you can tell from the title, it’s a song that portrays the painful feelings of parting with someone you loved deeply.

The swelling of the chorus makes your chest tighten even more.

Last LoveHanako Oku

Last Love

I think this song will resonate deeply with anyone who became a college student and experienced a more mature kind of love.

Although it’s about heartbreak, it also carries feelings of gratitude toward the other person, making it a healing song that can help you feel a bit more positive.

Please learn it and try singing it at karaoke.

TSUKINamie Amuro

TSUKI – Namie Amuro (Full)

This song has a signature Namie Amuro feel, with a mellow atmosphere and poignant lyrics that leave a strong impression.

For those who have experienced a more mature kind of love during that in-between stage of being a college student—neither fully a child nor fully an adult—it will truly resonate.

While the overall tone is gentle, the chorus has a burst of energy, making it an easy song to pour your emotions into when singing at karaoke.
