[2025] Sing at Karaoke! A Roundup of Popular Christmas Songs by Female Artists

Happy ChristmasAI

AI – Happy Christmas / Happy Christmas

This song, which gets you incredibly excited right from the start, is by the singer-songwriter AI.

When it comes to her Christmas songs, “Happiness” is well-known, but this track released in 2016 is highly recommended too! It features a strong, R&B-style beat, a catchy melody carried by AI’s cool vocals, and sprinkles in Christmassy sleigh bell tones and EDM-like sounds throughout—singing along is guaranteed to put you in a great mood! While many Christmas songs focus on romance, this one lets you savor the pure excitement and fun of the holiday season.

[Momoclo MV] Santa-san / Momoiro Clover Z (MOMOIRO CLOVER Z / SANTA SAN)

This song, “Santa-san,” is quintessentially Momoiro Clover Z: energetic and up-tempo.

It unfolds with homages to melodies like Jingle Bells and Joy to the World, building excitement and getting you into a lively groove! Of course it’s a cute track, but it’s also sprinkled with bits of humor here and there—be sure to catch those! It’s a great pick for an all-women’s Christmas karaoke.

Ayaka Hirahara – CHRISTMAS LIST (MV)

Speaking of Christmas songs, many are about romance, but there are also a few that pray for peace.

Rather than wishing for something for herself, she expresses a hope that people in war-torn regions won’t have to suffer.

Her characteristically low, richly expressive voice is so cool, isn’t it?

X’mas Spirit!Chara

Chara – X’mas Spirit!

Chara, beloved by many as an actress and singer, has a collection of her winter songs in the release “Boku no Koto wo Shitte,” from which I’d like to introduce “X’mas Spirit!” This is an original Christmas song created by Chara, featuring classic chord progressions and sounds like bells.

It’s brimming with Christmas spirit, so it’s likely to liven up any gathering with people of all ages.

If you try the humming parts as well, it’ll feel even more like you’ve truly mastered the song.

Christmas timeZARD

ZARD Christmas time ZARD Version

It’s a sanctified-sounding track where Izumi Sakai’s crystalline vocals resonate beautifully.

The chime and handbell motifs woven throughout evoke a Christmas atmosphere.

Although it’s a song about heartbreak, the ethereal imagery and emotional depictions lend it a certain romantic quality.

Even AKB48, the idol group that dominated an era, has a staple Christmas song.

It may be less well-known compared to their massive hit singles, so many people might not know it, but it’s crafted in their signature style, making it perfect for singing at karaoke.

Fun Fun ChristmasBENI

Beni – Fun fun Christmas

From the very intro, the outstanding vocals of “Fun Fun Christmas” ring out.

Because the song spans a wide vocal range, I think it’s a bit difficult to sing.

However, if you can deliver it solidly, it should feel great! It’s an easy, upbeat track for listeners to clap along to, and it’s sure to get the crowd going! In addition to its dazzling tone, the jingling of sleigh bells enhances the Christmas vibe.
