Songs by Ayumi Hamasaki, the charismatic gal icon, that are easy to sing at karaoke

In the 2000s, Ayumi Hamasaki became hugely popular—especially among young women—thanks to a string of hit songs.

Her first album, “A Song for ××,” released in 1999, suddenly sold over a million copies, and she went on to produce numerous hits such as “SEASONS,” “M,” and “Voyage.”

Her songs are also popular at karaoke, but many people find them difficult because they generally have high keys.

In this article, we’ll introduce Ayumi Hamasaki songs that are easy to sing and great for karaoke.

We’ll also highlight why they’re easy to sing, so be sure to use this as a reference!

[Charisma of Gyaru] Ayumi Hamasaki’s Easy-to-Sing Karaoke Songs (11–20)

“Dearest” is Ayumi Hamasaki’s 24th single and a smash hit that won both the Japan Record Award and the Japan Cable Radio Award.

It was used as an ending theme for Inuyasha, and the fact that an anime song won these awards—something not seen since “Odoru Pompokolin”—also drew attention.

Its beautiful melodic lines and lyrics that evoke true love likely resonated with many listeners’ own experiences and longings.

With its relaxed tempo, it’s relatively easy to sing at karaoke, and the swell toward the end especially captivates listeners.

The chorus and the final chorus are particularly high in key, so don’t push yourself—adjust the key to suit your range and enjoy the challenge!

Ayumi Hamasaki’s classic “fairyland.” Because it’s a very upbeat song, many women in their 30s may avoid it thinking it’s too high, but surprisingly the vocal range isn’t that wide; it stays within mid1F to hiD.

What makes it easy to sing isn’t just that—the tempo is slightly slow at BPM 112, and the pitch movement is fairly consistent.

If you carefully track the pitch, you can aim for a high score at karaoke without any issues, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

NEVER EVERAyumi Hamasaki

This moving song reflects the human quest for eternal truth, set to a majestic melody carried by a graceful triple-time rhythm.

Ayumi Hamasaki sings of a search that began before she was born, conveying a powerful will to move forward—even when hurting others, and at times herself.

Released in March 2001, it drew attention as the theme for Kirin Beverage’s drink “Suppli” commercial and reached No.

1 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.

It was later included on the albums “I am…” and “A BEST 2 -BLACK-,” capturing the hearts of many listeners.

It’s a track to hear when you’re lost and standing still in life—one that will remind you of the importance of holding on to unchanging convictions.

BALLADAyumi Hamasaki

For women in their 30s, Ayumi Hamasaki is the quintessential artist of their generation.

However, if you have a lower voice, you might feel her songs are challenging because of their wide vocal range.

That’s why I recommend “BALLAD.” As the title suggests, it’s a classic ballad, but unusually for an Ayumi Hamasaki song, it’s sung within a relatively narrow range.

The tempo is also slow, giving you plenty of time to prepare for the next entrance.

It’s sure to get a great response when you sing it in front of people from the same generation, so consider adding it to your repertoire.

In conclusion

We introduced some Ayumi Hamasaki songs that are easy to sing at karaoke—what did you think? She has many relaxed ballads, and if you adjust the key, some songs become relatively easier to sing.

Once you find a favorite, be sure to give it a try!
