Former vocal coach specializing in Western musicRyo
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!

This time, I’m introducing Western songs that are easy for men to sing!

In fact, there’s a genre that’s super easy to sing!

So this time, I’ve picked out easy-to-sing Western songs, including that particular genre.

Maroon 5 is a popular band that effortlessly handles any kind of song, from catchy tracks to full-fledged alternative rock.

They boast a fairly long career, yet they’re still going strong on the front lines.

Their new song, Middle Ground, is a testament to that.

This work isn’t dance music; it’s crafted as an emotional ballad.

Because it contains little of the Black music essence, there aren’t many advanced techniques like vocal riffs and runs.

As a result, it’s a song that even those who struggle with pitch can find approachable.

This time, I introduced some easy-to-sing Western songs.

I chose ones that avoid techniques like vibrato, riffs/runs, and shouts as much as possible.

Did you find any songs that suit you and are easy for you to sing? What’s important in singing is the ability to “cover” or “disguise” things.

Western music is great for training this ability, so if you want to get better at singing, be sure to center your practice around Western songs!
