Karaoke songs that are easy for middle school students to score high on

The number-one concern middle schoolers have in music is voice change.

While girls might not feel it as much, it’s a period when the vocal cords change significantly for both boys and girls, making it arguably the most difficult time to sing in your entire life.

For middle schoolers going through this, just controlling pitch can be challenging.

On top of that, recent Japanese pop songs often feature many high notes and few rests, which makes it even harder to aim for high scores.

So this time, we’ve selected songs that even middle school students with unstable voices can use to aim for high scores.

We also carefully considered how well the songs will be received, so be sure to check them out to the end.

Yorushika is a music duo that enjoys overwhelming support from men and women in their teens and twenties.

Many middle school students are likely moved by their musical style, which blends languid melodies with profound messages.

Among their songs, Algernon is especially easy to score high on in karaoke.

While its deep worldview tends to draw attention, the melody line is very simple, making it easy to match the pitch.

Yuka, a female singer-songwriter with an acoustic sound, is popular among teens and people in their twenties.

Having grown up overseas, her music carries subtle influences from Western genres like Black music.

Among her songs, Hoshizukiyo is especially easy to score high on in karaoke.

Its ennui-tinged, dreamlike tones and slow tempo make it easy to sing.

Give it a try.

Fly away, PEDRO

Here is a song by PEDRO, the solo project that Ayuni D started in 2018, paused for a while, and then resumed.

I’ve heard she also writes the songs.

It has a tempo that’s just right for karaoke and a calm melody—seems like something you can sing while taking your time to catch your breath.

The singing style is a bit lisped, but if you try too hard to replicate that, it might make it harder to stay on pitch.

Try singing with Ayuni’s clear, translucent voice in mind.

Yorushika - Night Journey

It’s Yorushika’s second digital single, released in March 2020.

If you sing this song at karaoke, you probably won’t feel that the melody is “difficult.” It’s crafted to be that simple and approachable.

One thing to watch out for if you’re aiming for a high score is the swung rhythm.

If your vocal rhythm turns flat, it will ruin everything, so listen closely to the drums and be careful not to lag behind the swung beat.

Beyond that, if you can sing with a gentle tone and expression like the original artist, it’ll be perfect.

Nagisa is the best! NMB48

As a karaoke recommendation for middle school students, NMB48’s “Nagisa Saikou!” might be a great pick.

The lyrics revolve around a late-summer farewell, and the easy-to-sing melody line is catchy and neatly put together.

For karaoke scoring, “accurate pitch” and “keeping solid rhythm” are important, and this song is easy to sing thanks to its consistent rhythm and clear melody from start to finish.

Plus, the lyrics are made up of short phrases, so it’s easier to find breathing spots and maintain pitch.

Definitely give it a try to boost your karaoke scores.

Kyun from my pocket!flounder

This is the song “Kyun desu! from my pocket,” which went viral on the video-sharing platform TikTok.

It’s a track by the faceless artist Hirame, and its cute, feminine vocals and catchy phrases made it popular especially among young people.

The melody doesn’t have a lot of ups and downs.

Since the overall tone is calm and steady, you won’t be tossed around by dramatic changes in dynamics.

However, the words flow and shift quickly, so the key is whether you can accurately capture the subtle pitch differences.

Aim to sing it carefully and precisely.

Rhythmic Toy World is a rock band that has been active since the 2010s.

They’re known for a classic rock sound with strong J-pop elements and have created many catchy songs.

Among their tracks, the one I especially recommend is their new song, Wonder World.

While it doesn’t have a particularly narrow vocal range, the melody doesn’t feature complex pitch jumps, and there are a fair number of rests, so even middle schoolers with unsteady voices can sing it without trouble.

Go for a high score!
