The GiverChappell Roan
Chappell Roan, known as a transgender singer.
Her song The Giver, released in March 2025, is one of her signature tracks.
While she mainly excels in genres like synth-pop and dark pop, this work features a gentler melody with a somewhat country-like feel.
The vocal range spans from mid1 F# to high E, which is fairly wide, but since there are almost no ad-libs aside from some embellishments in the final arrangement, it’s relatively approachable to sing.

Released in May 2024, it climbed to the top ranks of charts worldwide.
It was also released as a second single in July of the same year, drawing even more attention.

Jack Harlow, born in 1998 in Louisville, Kentucky, released his single “Lovin On Me” on November 10, 2023, which quickly became a viral hit after a snippet was shared on TikTok.

A Bar Song (Tipsy)Shaboozey
In today’s trend of blending country music and rock with pop and hip-hop elements, it might be fair to say that Shaboozey’s breakthrough—embodying exactly that musical style—was inevitable.
When we look back on the music scene of 2024, the massive hit “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” will surely be one of the first titles mentioned.
It’s a gem of a track, with a soulful vocal line delivering a friendly, singable melody over a slightly wistful acoustic guitar and handclaps.
The song actually interpolates J-Kwon’s 2004 debut track “Tipsy,” making it a perfect example of the hybrid sound mentioned at the outset.
If you’re going to sing this classic at karaoke, the melody is easy and the range isn’t very wide, so the best approach is to enjoy it with a pleasant buzz and just have fun.
At the same time, if you can convey a hint of masculine melancholy—or a touch of loneliness—it’ll be perfect.
