Karaoke songs that make it easy for women to score high
Karaoke systems with scoring features have been getting more and more sophisticated lately, and an increasing number now evaluate vocal techniques like vibrato and scooping.
However, the largest part of the scoring criteria is still the accuracy of melody and rhythm.
In this feature, we focus on those criteria and have compiled a selection of songs that are easy to sing and likely to score high, especially ones where it’s easy to follow the melody and rhythm.
When karaoke has a scoring function, you can’t help but want to go for a high score, whether you’re confident in your singing or not.
For each song, we’ve also included tips on how to earn a high score, so be sure to use them as a reference and aim for your best.
That said, the most important thing is to forget about the numbers and just sing freely and have fun the way you like!

Karaoke Songs Recommended for Women That Make It Easy to Score High (201–210)
I am a piano.Mizue Takada
This is singer Mizue Takada’s 12th single, released in July 1980.
Incidentally, the lyrics and composition are by Keisuke Kuwata of Southern All Stars.
In addition to the Southern All Stars’ own version, recordings of cover versions by several artists have also been released.
The vocal melody has that quintessential “Kuwata-bushi” flavor—slightly tinged with melancholy and very appealing—and since the vocal range it uses isn’t particularly wide, it’s arranged so that anyone can easily aim for a high karaoke score just by casually singing along.
If you tense up your voice or let the rhythm rush, you could spoil an otherwise wonderful song, so try to keep your delivery soft from start to finish!
Embracing sleepless nightsZARD
This was ZARD’s fourth single overall, released in August 1992.
It came out during the so-called golden age of J-POP in the 1990s, when million-selling hits were coming out one after another.
Hit songs from that era—not just this one—were packed with go-to, must-sing tracks for anyone aiming for a high score at karaoke! After all, it was a time when how often a song was sung at karaoke had a huge impact on single sales.
Major labels were eager to create and promote songs that were easy to sing at karaoke.
ZARD’s “Nemurenai Yoru wo Daite,” which we’re featuring here, is no exception.
With its very singable, easy-to-remember melody and lyrics, you could even say it was practically made for the general public to aim for high scores at karaoke! It might be fun to have a high-score showdown with your friends using just this one song.
Because you're my hero.LiSA
This is LiSA’s 12th single, released on August 2, 2017.
It’s an uptempo rock number, so I think that alone makes it quite easy to sing.
There are several spots in the vocal melody where you need to switch to falsetto for the high notes, so you might want to be careful to manage those transitions smoothly.
If you’re not confident, it might be safer to lower the key and sing entirely in chest voice to aim for a higher score.
Rain MaidenRaon
Raon is a YouTuber and lyricist from South Korea.
She sings Japanese songs so well that it’s hard to believe she isn’t Japanese.
The reason, it seems, is that she watched Japanese anime from a young age.
This song, which has a somewhat eerie feel and tells the story of a rain maiden betrayed by her lover, features many repeated melodic phrases, making it easy to remember.
To score high, it’s important to lock into the rhythm precisely.
CHE.R.RYYUI
This is the eighth single by Japanese singer-songwriter YUI, released in March 2007.
Because the A-melody section is a bit low and there are parts sung rather fast, it might be somewhat challenging as material for aiming for a perfect 100 at karaoke.
However, if you can overcome those points, the song itself is very easy to learn and approachable, so I think scoring 100 isn’t just a dream.
Please give it a try.
Flower of loveAimyon
This is Aimyon’s 14th single, released in June 2023.
It was chosen as the theme song for NHK’s first-half 2023 morning drama series “Ranman.” It’s a gentle song with a soothing acoustic guitar sound.
Because it’s such a gentle track, the vocal melody is very familiar and easy to remember, so I think it’s a good pick for aiming for a high score in karaoke.
Pay attention to how the falsetto (head voice) is used in the chorus when you sing it.
On nights when cherry blossoms fallAimyon
Aimyon is a female singer-songwriter whose nostalgic sound, evocative of 1970s folk music, has made her enormously popular, especially among younger listeners.
She has many hit songs, but among them, the one that’s particularly easy to score high with at karaoke is “Sakura ga Furu Yoru wa” (“On the Night the Cherry Blossoms Fall”).
Compared to her other tracks, this one has fewer acoustic elements, but as always, the vocal line places just one vowel on each pitch, making it very easy to sing.
