Mutual-love songs that are easy for women to sing at karaoke

unrequited lovemiwa

miwa 'Unrequited Love'

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

It’s a ballad that gently sings of the pain of unrequited love, carried by the sound of the piano.

I imagine many people can relate to these feelings.

Her gentle voice slips right into your heart.

to go see (someone) / to go meetAimyon

Aimyon – “On My Way to See You (drama edit)” [very short movie]

Aimyon is a female singer-songwriter whose music distinctively incorporates the essence of 1970s folk.

While she has many catchy songs, her latest track “Ai ni Iku no ni” is one I especially recommend for being easy to sing.

Its subtly folk-tinged elements within an orthodox Japanese J-pop framework are highly catchy, and the vocal lines are crafted to be very simple, in keeping with that style.

There are almost no sections requiring falsetto, so even those who can’t hit high notes can sing it with confidence.

Aimyon – You Don’t Listen to Rock [OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO]

This is Aimyon’s third major-label single, released in August 2017.

The melody is crafted to make full use of Aimyon’s slightly boyish vocal quality, so the usable range is kept relatively narrow.

With this song, even people who don’t usually sing can likely perform it without strain.

If you sing it in an overly cute, girlish way, there’s a risk of disrupting the song’s worldview.

To give a bold piece of advice, since the lyrics are from a male perspective, it might be best to approach it as if you’re singing a male vocal track.

There are a few parts of the melody that are a bit hard to remember, but give it some practice and give it a try.

Because I fell in loveAimyon

Guaranteed to get the karaoke crowd going: Aimyon’s “Koi wo Shita Kara” (“Because I Fell in Love”).

The lyrics, reflecting Aimyon’s own experiences, delicately portray the raw emotions of being in love.

The gentle tone of the acoustic guitar is also striking.

With its easy-to-follow melody line, it should be comfortable to sing calmly.

Through a song that stays close to your feelings, why not let your thoughts drift to someone special?

I want to tell you how I feel (my love)Aimyon

Aimyon – “I Want to Tell You I Love You” [OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO]

This is Aimyon’s second single, released in May 2017.

While many female vocalists tend to stand out with frequent use of high tones, she’s a wonderful singer whose charm lies in her mid-to-low range.

Because of that, her songs are easier to sing for those who feel unsure about their high notes, and they may be especially approachable for women who struggle with hitting high pitches.

The song has a slightly bouncy rhythm, so try to feel the groove with your body as you sing to keep the energy lively.

This is Aimyon’s second digital-only single, released in February 2021.

As the title suggests, it’s a heartwarming song that evokes a quiet scene, and the melody is very easy to hum.

Even those who aren’t confident singers should be able to choose it for karaoke and sing it without too much difficulty.

Another selling point is that the vocal melody doesn’t span a very wide range.

In the pre-chorus, there’s a slightly fast-paced section—be careful not to fall behind the rhythm, but also not to rush ahead.

In the original key sung by Aimyon, there are parts in the chorus where she switches to falsetto; if you’re not confident with that transition, try lowering the key.

Overall, singing gently without forcing your voice is the key to making it sound nice!

I’ll wait – Aming

This was the debut single by the female vocal duo Aming, released in July 1982.

Despite being their first song, it became a massive hit, selling over 1.

2 million copies in total.

There’s no doubt that the song’s simple, catchy, and easy-to-sing melody greatly contributed to its success.

With no extremely high or low notes, it’s a tune anyone can hum effortlessly, so even women who aren’t confident singers should be able to sing it without difficulty.

The choral arrangement is also very simple and easy to hear, so it might be fun to try harmonizing and singing it as a duo!
