Karaoke songs that make it easy to score 100 points [for women]

With the rise of K-pop in recent years, the difficulty level of Japanese music has risen significantly.

In karaoke scoring—where pitch control is paramount, especially because melodies now tend to jump more drastically—there seem to be far fewer songs with which you can realistically aim for a perfect 100.

So this time, we’ve selected easy-to-sing tracks, focusing on recent releases, that you can target for a 100! We’ve also included concrete technique explanations from a vocal coach, so be sure to read through to the end!

Karaoke Songs That Make It Easy to Score 100 Points [For Women] (151–160)

Love letterlast lamp

Last Lamp 'Love Letter' - Official Music Video
Love Letter Last Lamp

Last Lamp is a four-piece band active in Tokyo with a concept centered on classic, melody-driven songs.

They’ve been gaining traction lately, so if you keep an eye on the Japanese rock scene, you’ve likely heard of them.

Among their tracks, the one I especially recommend is Love Letter.

True to their concept, it’s a straight-up classic ballad, featuring catchy melodic lines that feel like they could’ve been around for over 20 years.

There’s a single falsetto moment in the chorus, but since it’s at a slow tempo, there’s little risk of going off pitch.

Aimer “Aimlessly” MUSIC VIDEO (Anime “Ranking of Kings: The Treasure Chest of Courage” Ending Theme)
Aimlessly, Aimer

This is Aimer’s 22nd single, released in May 2023.

It was chosen as the ending theme for the anime Ranking of Kings: The Treasure Chest of Courage.

While the song is a relatively simple ballad, Aimer uses a remarkably diverse range of vocal expressions to beautifully convey the song’s world.

It might be a bit challenging if you’re aiming for a high score at karaoke, but the melody itself is very straightforward and beautiful.

Be sure to study in advance—where the rests fall in each phrase, where to sustain notes, and where to cut them off—then give it a try.

smile backCandies

This was the legendary female trio Candies’ final single, released on February 25, 1978.

Befitting a song that closes out the group’s career, it’s striking how the lyrics are sprinkled throughout with titles of their past hits.

Many ’70s hits are easy to sing and great for karaoke, and this song is no exception—its melody is catchy and very singable.

With this one, scoring a perfect 100 might not be just a dream.

That said, speaking personally, I’d rather you forget about the score and have fun imitating the choreography! And if you can sing it as a trio and even recreate the harmonies, that would be the best.

AlgernonYorushika

This is Yorushika’s 15th digital-only single, released in February 2023.

It’s a slow-tempo song with a relatively narrow vocal range in the melody, making it very easy to sing and a great choice for aiming for a perfect score.

Be careful not to let your singing rush ahead of the backing track.

When you sing, try placing your voice against the upper palate; it will bring out more high-frequency overtones and make it sound even better—give it a try!

Sailor Suit and Machine GunHiroko Yakushimaru

Sailor Suit and Machine Gun Yakushimaru Hiroko

It was Hiroko Yakushimaru’s debut single, released on November 21, 1981.

It’s the theme song for her film of the same title.

Apparently, the song was originally titled “Yume no Tochū” (In the Midst of a Dream), and later the composer Takao Kisugi released a self-cover under that original title.

Like the other songs introduced under this theme, it features a very simple, beautiful, and easy-to-remember melody, making it an ideal choice as material for aiming for a perfect 100 in karaoke.

Yakushimaru’s vocal delivery is also very straightforward and free of affectations, which makes it easier to imitate in that sense.

In fact, a somewhat flat, understated delivery might be the kind that can earn higher scores.

CAN YOU CELEBRATE?Namie Amuro

Namie Amuro’s ninth solo single in total, released in February 1997.

It was used as the theme song for Fuji TV’s Monday 9 p.

m.

drama “Virgin Road,” and also featured in a Maxell MD commercial.

The song was written, composed, and produced by Tetsuya Komuro.

The vocal melody itself is very straightforward, easy to sing, and easy to remember, but you should watch out for the slightly unique rhythmic phrasing and the subtle differences in the way the first and second choruses are sung.

There are also many instances of vibrato, especially on the long notes, so be sure to listen closely to the original and study it before singing.

Master these points, and scoring a perfect 100 might not just be a dream with this song!

MoonPerfume

MoonPerfume

This is Perfume’s 28th single, released in September 2023.

It was selected as the theme song for Fuji TV’s Wednesday drama “Barakamon.” The vocal melody is very simple and the range used isn’t wide at all, so if you choose this song at karaoke and aim for a high score, the most important thing is to focus on singing while maintaining precise rhythm and beat.

Try singing while clearly feeling the accents of the so-called four-on-the-floor beat.

In conclusion

In recent Japanese pop songs, the pitch moves up and down so dramatically that there aren’t many tracks where it’s easy to aim for a perfect 100, but with the selection this time, many of you may feel you can sing them.

To aim for 100 points, the most important thing is to match the pitch bar precisely.

Focus on following the pitch rather than techniques like vibrato or pitch scoops.
