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 that are easy for women to score high on (21–30)

A Cruel Angel's ThesisYoko Takahashi

“Cruel Angel’s Thesis” MUSIC VIDEO (HD ver.) / Zankoku na Tenshi no Te-ze “The Cruel Angel’s Thesis”
A Cruel Angel's Thesis by Yoko Takahashi

Rather than saying it’s Yoko Takahashi’s 11th single, released in October 1995, it’s easier to describe it as the opening theme of the TV anime Neon Genesis Evangelion, right? It’s an upper-mid to uptempo song with a very singable tempo, and the chorus melody is striking and easy to remember, making it one of the best picks if you’re aiming for a high karaoke score.

The vocal melody doesn’t span a very wide range either, which is another point in its favor for scoring high.

When you sing it, make sure to deliver it powerfully so your vocals don’t sound weak!

A happy promise.Lilia.

riria. / A Happy Promise [Music Video]
Happy promise. Lilia.

Riria is a female singer-songwriter of straightforward J-pop who enjoys overwhelming support from teenage and twenty-something women.

She has many great songs, but the one I especially recommend is “Shiawase na Yakusoku” (“A Happy Promise”).

Because it uses a lot of falsetto, it might seem difficult.

It’s true the falsetto appears quite frequently, but in this song the falsetto only reaches pitches that can also be sung in chest voice.

The overall vocal line doesn’t fluctuate much, making it perfect for aiming for a high score.

God Knows…Aya Hirano

God knows… “The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya” [Suzumiya Haruhi no Yūutsu] Kadokawa-licensed MAD [Bass Performance]
God Knows… Aya Hirano

As an insert song from the anime The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, this is the track Haruhi and the others perform during the cultural festival live show.

It’s a fast-paced band sound and a genuine rock number, so it might be challenging at first glance, but with practice I think it’s quite singable.

The “A” section’s laid-back timing (the held-back feel) is very important, so be careful not to slip off the beat.

The “B” section progresses without much change in range, but keep your eyebrows lifted to prevent your pitch from dropping.

Also, the chorus goes into higher notes with an image of an emotional outburst—if you project your voice energetically into the distance, you should be able to sing without straining your throat!

To Hikarimiwa

To Hikari, from miwa

This is miwa’s ninth single, released in 2012.

It’s said to be the first song where miwa took on four-on-the-floor dance music, and it drew attention for featuring her dancing in the music video.

It’s a very up-tempo track, so if you ride the rhythm and sing comfortably without falling behind, it seems like a song where you can aim for a high score!

secret base 〜What You Gave Me〜ZONE

secret base ~What You Gave Me~ ZONE

ZONE’s third single, released in August 2001.

It was also used as the ending theme for the drama “Kids War 3” starring Mao Inoue, so many of you may already know it.

Considering that all the members of ZONE were still in their teens at the time of release, the vocal expressiveness you hear in this song is quite remarkable.

The song itself, however, is straightforward and familiar, with a touch of nostalgia, so it shouldn’t be too difficult to sing at karaoke.

The key to getting a high score is to deliver the beautiful melody in a clear, straightforward way.

Aiming for a high score on your own is great, but it might also be a fun song to sing together with friends.

Nijiiro Ayaka

It’s Ayaka’s 13th single, released first digitally in April 2014 and then on CD in June of the same year.

When you think of Ayaka, you probably think of a powerhouse vocalist, so many people might hesitate to sing her songs at karaoke.

But Nijiiro has a very friendly, easy-to-remember melody, so if you don’t focus too much on imitating her vocal style, I think it’s not that hard to score high.

Try singing it while keeping the song’s light, brisk feel and being careful not to make it too heavy.

Perfume is a dance-vocal group that has remained at the forefront for many years.

Their new track, “Cosmic Treat,” is a playful number that starts with an intro reminiscent of 16-bit game sounds and unfolds into a city-pop-style tune.

The vocal line is very simple, with no sharp rises or drops in pitch and a relatively narrow range.

Since the long tones aren’t particularly long either, anyone who can hold their pitch accurately should be able to aim for a high score without much difficulty.
