Just The Way You AreBruno Mars

Bruno Mars – Just The Way You Are (Official Music Video)

Here’s Bruno Mars’s hit song released in 2010.

“Just the Way You Are” seems like a song that would really delight a woman you’re interested in if you sing it to her at karaoke.

Since the verses have many repeated notes, you can focus all your effort on the chorus, and you’ll probably be able to sing it well.

Released in 1988, this song became a big hit and was created entirely using the artist’s own voice, multi-tracked to produce the rhythm, bass, and everything else.

It’s a monotonous, continuous track with a laid-back vibe, but it builds lightly and gently with a brisk feel, making it easy to sing at any moment.

Released in 2016 and winner of the Grammy Award for Record of the Year, Bruno Mars’s classic “24K Magic.” You probably thought, “No way, that’s impossible,” right? But actually—you can sing it! The “easy-to-sing genres” I mentioned at the start are disco and funk.

If you give this song a listen, you’ll see it’s straight-up disco.

And guess what? There aren’t many high notes in it.

Plus, you don’t need vibrato or vocal runs.

If anything, it’s just the falsetto at the end of the chorus.

The English is a bit challenging, but if you lock into the rhythm and sing it, it’ll sound amazingly good.

Coldplay – A Sky Full Of Stars (Official Video)

This is a lead single from the American band Coldplay’s 2014 album, Ghost Stories.

With a four-on-the-floor beat that’s easy to groove to and a loop-like, repetitive structure, it’s also easy to get into when singing.

Love YourselfJustin Bieber

Justin Bieber – Love Yourself (PURPOSE : The Movement)

A song released in 2015.

It enjoys unwavering popularity across the United States.

This track is sung to an ex, expressing the feeling of having completely moved on from a past relationship.

Clinging is off-putting, but being pushed away with absolutely no lingering attachment can still feel heartbreaking, right? With a sparse arrangement, the lyrics convey a bold, confident attitude.

It would be pretty cool to be able to sing this one.

They’ve successfully performed in Japan many times at events like Summer Sonic, so they’re a karaoke staple.

“Dani California” is one of Red Hot Chili Peppers’ signature songs, so be sure to learn it and give it a try.

SeptemberEarth, Wind & Fire

Now, onto the main topic.

I mentioned at the beginning that there’s a certain genre that’s super easy to sing, right? A perfect example of that genre is “September.” This song is what you’d call disco sound.

On top of the disco vibe, it also has elements of funk.

And this genre is really easy to sing.

That’s because funk and disco music often use a vocal style with a bouncy, staccato rhythm.

This “staccato” is something you can pull off even without advanced technique.

In other words, even if you’re not great at singing, you can cover it up quite well.

It’s a genuinely easy genre to sing, so definitely give it a try!
