Songs that are easy to sing at karaoke even for people who think, “I might be tone-deaf...” or aren’t good at singing

Linda LindaTHE BLUE HEARTS

[Official] THE BLUE HEARTS “Linda Linda” [1st Single (1987/5/1)] THE BLUE HEARTS / Linda Linda

The major-label debut single and track by THE BLUE HEARTS.

Released in May 1987.

It’s a cool punk song you can belt out on pure energy, so worrying about how good a singer you are might be downright pointless.

It’s not a song that requires so-called “proper vocal technique,” so even if you’re not good at singing or you’re tone-deaf, don’t sweat the details—just get into the groove and have fun!

I should be able to fly (in the sky).Spitz

Spitz / I Should Be Able to Fly in the Sky

Among Spitz’s songs, this one has a relaxed, flowing rhythm.

For those who aren’t confident singers, faster songs are usually easier to keep the beat with, but I still think this is a simple song that you can learn quickly and sing comfortably.

The original key is on the higher side, but the range stays consistent, so choose a key that suits your voice.

nobody elseEXILE

Juztin Daniel – Nobody Else (Lyric Video)

This song is included on EXILE’s first album “our style,” released in 2002.

For those who feel EXILE’s powerful vocals and soaring high notes make their songs tough to tackle at karaoke, we recommend “nobody else.” It has virtually no high-note parts and a relatively narrow vocal range overall, making it easy to sing and express.

Once you get the hang of the phrasing, this song can hold its own even against advanced karaoke singers.

It may not be a major hit, but it’s definitely worth practicing!

Youthful AmigoShuji and Akira

Seishun Amigo – Shuuji and Akira

A single by the Japanese male idol duo Shuji to Akira.

It was released in Japan, Sweden, and Taiwan.

Co-produced in collaboration with a Swedish songwriting team, it was released in Japan in November 2005.

It also served as the theme song for the Nippon TV drama ‘Nobuta wo Produce,’ in which the two singers starred.

The song features a slightly wistful, heartrending melody that leaves an impression, but as an idol track, it’s structured with a very singable melody.

That makes it an easy pick for karaoke, even for those who aren’t confident singers.

In the original recording, the vocal track seems to use pitch-correction effects somewhat aggressively, but don’t worry about that too much—just sing it naturally!

Youth and youth and youthAimyon

Aimyon – Youth and Youth and Youth [OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO]

The song “Youth and Youth and Youth,” with its languid, retro atmosphere, leaves a strong impression.

While its melody could be classified as folk, the instrumentation occasionally evokes Hawaiian music and old-school surf tunes.

The vocal line is extremely simple, with no complex rises or falls in pitch.

Since most of the song sits in the low to low-mid range, it’s easier to sing if you match the lower register rather than aiming for any higher notes.

ReminiscenceStardust Revue

Reminiscence

Stardust Revue’s “Reminiscence” is a masterpiece that evokes the image of a shooting star dancing through a beautiful natural aurora, as if it were singing.

When singing this song at karaoke, lowering the key by about two steps and delivering it in a more spoken style lets even those not confident with high notes perform it attractively.

I want to hug you.Mr.Children

Mr.Children “I Want to Hold You” Mr.Children [(an imitation) blood orange] Tour

This is a classic love song by Mr.

Children, an artist who continues to lead the Japanese music scene with universally acclaimed, exceptional musical sensibility and overwhelming live performances.

It’s a ballad imbued with the desire to protect a loved one, and its low pitch makes it an easy masterpiece for anyone to sing.
