The lyrics charmingly depict a girl’s faint romance.

White LoveSPEED
For those who find fast-paced songs hard to sing, I recommend “White Love.” It was released in 1997 by SPEED, a dance and vocal group from Okinawa, and was used in a commercial for Shiseido’s Tissera Angel Drop.
The song is characterized by high-tone vocals, so women or anyone with a naturally high voice should give it a try.
The chorus melody is made up of simple notes, so if you focus on singing each note slowly and clearly, you’ll be able to perform it well!
Ah, the days of youthyuzu
Yuzu, the folk duo known as pioneers of the second street live performance movement who have now risen to the top tier of the J-POP scene.
Their ninth single, “Ah, Days of Youth,” features a sound with an unusually strong rock flavor for Yuzu, who are typically associated with an acoustic image—it really strikes a chord.
The relaxed shuffle beat makes it easy to sing, but since there are many jumps in pitch, be sure to stay calm and composed when you sing it.
It’s a surefire crowd-pleaser for karaoke, and harmonizing with friends makes it even more fun.
Come, spring.Yumi Matsutoya
It is one of Yumi Matsutoya’s signature songs, also used as the theme for the NHK morning drama series “Haru yo, Koi.” It has appeared in music and language arts textbooks, and is well known both as a choral piece and as a poem.
The lyrics can be interpreted in various ways—for example, as expressing the longing for the warm arrival of spring or the hope that the times will move in a better direction.
While it isn’t difficult to sing at a relaxed tempo, conveying the song’s world and atmosphere does require some finesse.
SunshadeYuka
Singer-songwriter Yuka, who has gained popularity for her unique musicality inspired by Western music.
Because her work is rooted in Western styles, many of her songs are quite challenging, but there are a few that are easier for Japanese beginners to sing.
One of those is Sunshade.
It’s a bright, high-energy rock track, yet it’s easier to sing than it sounds.
The reason lies in the vocal line.
Surprisingly, the vocal line in this song is simple, built mostly around sustained notes in the mid-to-low range.
It does require a bit of lung capacity, but if you can hold long tones, you can sing it even without a particularly high vocal range.
fake face dance musicMasanori Onda
Singer-songwriter Masanori Onda, who has been gaining popularity mainly on TikTok.
While it’s not full-fledged R&B, he’s a singer-songwriter whose breezy sound carries the vibe of Black music.
Among his tracks, “fake face dance music” is one I especially recommend.
It’s a groovy song, but the vocal range is quite narrow, so as long as you have a sense of rhythm, it’s a catchy tune that anyone can sing.
It's love, right?wacci
Wacci is a five-member rock band formed after each member gained experience through musical activities in other bands and in the working world.
Their 11th single, “Koidaro,” released as a double A-side with “Bokura no Ippo,” drew attention when it was used as an insert song in the TV drama “The Grand Family.” Because the melody doesn’t span a wide range and the tempo is relaxed, it’s best to adjust the key to suit your voice and practice by checking each pitch and rhythm step by step.
However, be careful not to go off pitch, as the chorus features a melody with leaps.
