"I might be tone-deaf..." Easy-to-sing karaoke songs for those who aren’t good at singing (21–30)
A Beautiful Poem of LoveNaoto Inti Raymi
It has a stylish feel thanks to its Latin-style rhythm and melody.
The overall vocal range is wide, from C3 to C5, but the chorus isn’t high; C#4 is used on average.
The highest note, C5, appears in the final English section, but it’s fine to sing it lightly in falsetto.
Since there aren’t any parts where you have to belt and the song is sung with a gentle vibe, it’s easy even for people who aren’t used to karaoke.
In the A section, where the lyrics move quickly, clearly pronouncing the vowel on the first beat makes it easier to lock into the rhythm and sing.
For the chorus, I also recommend really feeling the Latin groove and keeping the rhythm with your body as you sing! There are bits of English here and there, which boosts the stylish atmosphere, and being able to sing the full song will look really cool.
SUNGen Hoshino
Released in May 2015, this is Gen Hoshino’s eighth single.
The rhythm might be a bit tricky, but in terms of vocal range it should be relatively comfortable to sing.
If you focus on singing plainly and honestly like Gen Hoshino, it should turn out nicely.
Try not to think too much about “singing well”; instead, face the song straight on and give it a try.
Songs that are easy to sing at karaoke even for those who think “I might be tone-deaf…” (31–40)
bouquetback number
This is a song by back number, a three-piece rock band from Gunma Prefecture.
It was released in 2011 as their second single.
The straightforward message of love conveyed in the lyrics captured listeners’ hearts.
Thanks to its content, it’s also very popular as wedding background music.
It’s nice that you can sing the A and B verses without straining your voice.
Definitely try it at karaoke as a couple.
Blue BookmarkGalileo Galilei
This is a song by Galileo Galilei written specifically as the opening theme for the anime “Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day.” Its gentle lyrics, which evoke memories of one’s hometown and reflect the story of the work itself, are particularly striking.
The relaxed tempo gives the impression of conveying the message embedded in the lyrics clearly.
The tricky part comes when the chorus enters and the key goes higher; figuring out how to overcome that section will likely be a major challenge when singing this song.
Help me! Futon Man (feat. Yuki Kaai)Yukopi
Vocaloid producer Yukopi has gained popularity for a musical style full of originality.
With a unique, surreal, and somewhat cute sound, they consistently release highly addictive tracks.
Among Yukopi’s songs, the one I especially recommend is “Help Me! Futon Man (feat.
Yuki Kaai).” True to Yukopi’s style, this track stays within a narrow vocal range and contains no long sustained notes or powerful sections.
It’s one of the easiest songs to sing among the ones introduced here, so be sure to add it to your repertoire.
Moving point PWednesday Campanella
Wednesday Campanella is a music unit that has earned praise from both the general public and hardcore house aficionados for the gap between their pop-inspired worldview and high-sense musicality.
They’re always releasing hit numbers, but this time we’ll introduce a slightly lesser-known work: Ugoku Ten-P (Moving Point P).
This song is easy to sing across the board—its rhythm, minimal melodic movement, and narrow vocal range all contribute.
While it may be a minor track, the group tends to go over well at karaoke, so it’s worth adding to your repertoire.
Gray and Blue (+Masaki Suda)Kenshi Yonezu
A song by the hugely popular singer-songwriter and the equally popular actor Masaki Suda.
Be careful when the chorus comes in, as the pitch jumps up sharply there, but aside from that, the melody doesn’t move up and down much, so I think it’s relatively easy to sing.
Also, while many of Kenshi Yonezu’s songs have complex rhythms and are difficult to sing, this one has a simple melodic line and seems easier to sing!
