A collection of cool songs that sound great when sung by women, originally male songs
These days, more male artists with high, soaring vocal ranges are emerging, and it’s becoming common for women to sing songs originally by male artists.
So this time, I’ll introduce men’s songs that sound especially cool when sung by women!
When a woman intentionally sings a man’s song, that contrast creates a fresh vibe and can make it sound really cool.
Songs by high-tenor male artists can also be easier for women to sing, so if you’re thinking, “I want to sing a male artist’s song at karaoke, but I don’t know what to pick,” use this as a reference!

crimsonX JAPAN
X JAPAN’s famous and high-pitched song “Kurenai” starts off so relaxed that you might find yourself thinking, “Is this really that song?” For the record, that’s exactly what I thought the first time I heard it (lol).
It might be easier for women to sing in the original key, but it’s quite high for men! Toshl’s vocals are truly incredible—he not only growls but also maintains solid high tones throughout.
The key to hitting high notes is your core.
If your body wobbles, your voice won’t project forward, so make sure to support from your lower abdomen (tanden).
There are parts that feel like shouting, but if you actually just shout, you’ll wreck your throat.
Try to resonate in your head with a “Kyaa!” kind of image instead.
This is definitely a song you’ll want to add to your karaoke repertoire!
Bye-Bye to youUVERworld
Speaking of UVERworld’s songs, they tend to stay in the high register throughout.
This track, too, keeps high notes from start to finish, and the pitch moves up and down quite a lot, so if you’re not used to singing high, there’s a concern you might end up straining your throat.
The high note that pops up at the end of the chorus jumps to a C5, so it might be good to start by practicing just that part to hit it explosively.
To produce a powerful voice like vocalist TAKUYA∞, you need solid core support! If your body wobbles while riding a train or bus, it means your lower abdomen (tanden) isn’t engaged.
That will make your singing waver too, so try singing with firm strength in your lower abdomen.
It’s a difficult song, so don’t rush—practice steadily!

DrunkPamiredo
If you want to make your low register sound alluring with a stylish, sexy track, I recommend “Drunk.” It’s a song by the enigmatic singer-songwriter Pamiredo, featuring an irresistibly sultry melody right from the intro.
The vocal line stays in the low to low-mid range throughout, and even the climactic sections remain quiet and low, which will bring out the best in a man with a deep voice.
Be sure to add it to your repertoire.
Lights Out feat. Jeremy QuartusNulbarich
Centered around singer-songwriter JQ, Nulbarich has operated as a “band” with a fluid lineup, gaining popularity for their sophisticated sound rooted in Black music, but they announced a hiatus as of 2024.
Lights Out, included on Close a Chapter—their final album before the hiatus—became a hot topic thanks to its music video, which for the first time featured the band members themselves.
It’s a quintessentially Nulbarich track with a stylish, mellow groove and a heartwarming chorus melody that feels so good.
It’s also recommended for lower-voiced female singers who want to try melodies with that classic Western pop feel.
Lights Off (feat. Natori)TAKU INOUE
Music producer TAKU INOUE, known for his sophisticated musicality and collaborations with many artists.
“Lights Off (feat.
Natori)” is a collaboration with singer-songwriter Natori that makes the most of Natori’s youthful yet low, sweet vocal tone.
While the song features some high phrases with touches of falsetto, it generally sits in a lower register overall, which highlights the appeal of women with lower voices.
The vocal line is also gently contoured with little dramatic rise and fall, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
In conclusion
I introduced cool songs by male artists that sound great when sung by women.
Many of the male singers have relatively high ranges, so I think there were plenty of songs that are easy for women to sing as well.
When a woman intentionally sings a male artist’s song, it often sounds fresh and cool because of the contrast and novelty.
Of course, which songs are easy to sing will also depend on your voice type, so I’d be happy if you can find artists and tracks that suit your voice and let you sing comfortably and stylishly!
