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

Beyond the goodbyeKohei Matsushita
This is a digital-only single by Kohei Matsushita, released in June 2023.
It was broadcast on NHK’s “Minna no Uta” during the June–July 2023 slot.
Every element that makes up the song—its style, lyrics, arrangement, and Matsushita’s own vocals—is wrapped in a heartwarming atmosphere that makes you feel gentle just by listening.
Because it’s such a tender piece, the vocal melody is crafted so that anyone can hum along with ease.
Please relax, sing softly, immerse yourself in the song’s world, and enjoy.
Be careful not to let your voice or singing become rough.
Everyday lifeGen Hoshino
Nichi-jou is a cozy acoustic number with a message encouraging you to cherish your true self.
It was included on the second album, Episode, released in 2011.
Its buoyant rhythm feels like walking forward, and it’s a song that can energize you not only when you listen but also when you sing.
Typical of their early tracks, the limited pitch range and a tempo that isn’t too slow make it easy to sing, and approachable even for those who aren’t confident singers.
If you’re looking for a song you can sing while relaxed, give it a try!
CinderellaTohru
Tomei, the female singer who rose to popularity with Suzume feat.
Toaka, the theme song of the film Suzume, has continued to release a number of hit songs since that track’s success and remains active in the mainstream today.
Among Tomei’s works, the song I especially recommend is Haikaburi.
It’s a stylish, gothic track, and if you sing it in a whisper voice, it can instantly create a mood and sound good even if you’re not a strong singer.
Blue HabitatTatsuya Kitani
This is a single by Tatsuya Kitani, a singer-songwriter and bassist, released in July 2023.
It serves as the opening theme for the TV anime Jujutsu Kaisen: Hidden Inventory/Premature Death.
It’s a striking track with an aggressive, fast-paced feel! The appearance of a school chime melody partway through the song is also memorable.
Kitani himself skillfully switches between various vocal styles to perform this track, but don’t worry about the details—just pick it up at karaoke and enjoy singing along to its aggressive vibe.
To the FrontlineGoodbye, Poezy
This song, with its cool, emotional guitar sound, is by the Hyogo-based rock band Sayonara Poesy.
It’s the lead track from their 2016 album “Zensen ni Tsugu.” One reason I recommend it is that the key isn’t very high.
Since you don’t have to belt it out, it should be relatively easy to sing.
gajaimoTunnels
It’s a massive hit that debuted at No.
1 on the Oricon charts as the opening theme for Fuji TV’s “Tunnels no Minasan no Okage desu.” Since it has elements of an anime song, it’s relatively easy to sing with a rhythm that kids and adults alike can enjoy.
It’s a great song to perform at events and really gets the crowd going.
Riding in a Corolla IIKenji Ozawa
It was released in 1995 as Kenji Ozawa’s sixth single.
The song had been on air even before its release as the theme for Toyota’s “Corolla II” commercial, and it became a big hit, reaching No.
2 on the Oricon chart—his first time achieving that position.
With its gentle melody, it’s also easy to sing at karaoke.
