[Recommended] Short, easy-to-sing Japanese karaoke songs A Vocaloid producer who is also a music writer Wakachan Araki I started playing guitar in middle school and focused on band activities during my student years. I’ve been a hobbyist Vocaloid producer for over 15 years. After entering the workforce, I gained experience in various roles, including event sound engineering and videography/photography. As a writer, I’ve contributed introduction articles for music and manga websites, and in 2022 I had the opportunity to write the bonus liner notes for IA SUPER BEST. My specialties are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.
Former vocal coach specializing in Western music Ryo Under the theme of “vocal skills that stand up on the world stage,” I have experience teaching as an online vocal coach specializing in Western music, and I usually listen to genres like nuevo flamenco, bolero, canzone, and R&B. In my teens, I questioned the idea that “foreign music equals English,” and started exploring songs from around the world. My commentary is characterized by a unique perspective shaped by listening to music of every genre, in every language, from every country. I mainly cover world music, so be sure to check it out!
I think there are quite a few people who aren’t good with karaoke, but sometimes you just can’t turn it down because of social obligations.
What’s more, there may be situations where, once you go, you can’t get away without singing at least one song.
So, I’m going to introduce some short songs that are easy to sing even for those who aren’t comfortable with karaoke!
Most of the songs I’m about to introduce are a little over three minutes long, but some are around two minutes.
Long songs can be tough for people who aren’t confident about singing, but you might be able to manage a short one!
Also, feel free to use this as a reference when choosing the final song as your room time is about to run out.

staring contest Sora Tomonari A pop number with an eight-beat groove that incorporates a touch of traditional Japanese flavor, it paints a chic, high-fashion love story.
Following Sora Tomonari’s “Oni no Utage,” it was released in May 2024.
Selected as J-WAVE’s “J-WAVE SONAR TRAX” track for May, it garnered attention with airplay across various wide programs.
Singing of the yearning and inner conflict toward a dangerously alluring ‘beauty,’ this song is easy to sing even for those who aren’t confident at karaoke, and it also makes a great final number.

lazy cat EVE This song portrays a yearning for change while carrying self-denial and regret.
Released as the opening track of Eve’s November 2024 album “Under Blue,” it expresses remorse over past actions and anxiety about an uncertain future, yet ultimately offers glimpses of self-acceptance and hope.
Eve’s characteristically introspective lyrics pair exquisitely with a pop-infused, melancholic sound.
It’s perfect for moments when you want to reflect on yourself or make a fresh start.
