How Far I’ll GoAuli’i Cravalho92rank/position

Auli’i Cravalho – How Far I’ll Go (from Moana/Official Video)

This is a song used as the theme for Disney’s 2016 film “Moana.” In the Japanese version, Miliyah Kato sings it, and since it was often played on TV, it has a beautiful and easy-to-remember melody that you’ll likely be able to sing right away as long as you study the English lyrics in advance.

Shakira – Try Everything (Official Video)

This is the theme song from Disney’s animated film Zootopia, released in 2016.

Since the tempo isn’t fast, it’s easy for people who aren’t confident in English to give it a try, and the many repeated phrases make it easy to sing.

It would likely be even more exciting with clips from the movie playing.

DAOKO × Kenshi Yonezu 'Uchiage Hanabi' MUSIC VIDEO

A track by DAOKO, a female artist active as a rap singer and hip-hop MC, and Kenshi Yonezu, the singer-songwriter who has taken the J-POP scene by storm and is often called a darling of the times.

Used as the theme song for the animated film “Fireworks: Should We See It from the Side or the Bottom?”, its lyrics paint vivid scenes and its lyrical melody resonates with the heart.

The melody is modern and a bit intricate, but the tempo is relaxed, so it’s quite singable at karaoke.

If possible, it’s a summer song I’d love for two friends to sing together—the balance between its refreshing brightness and its gentle wistfulness is exquisite.

Let It GoDemi Lovato95rank/position

Demi Lovato – Let It Go (from “Frozen”) (Official Video)

This is the song used as the theme for Disney’s animated film Frozen, released in 2013.

It became a huge hit in Japan as well, so many people sing it at karaoke, and it still ranks on current karaoke charts as an extremely popular song.

Kaikai KitanEVE96rank/position

Kaikai Kitan – Eve MV

This song was pre-released on October 3, 2020, and serves as the opening theme for the first season of the TV anime Jujutsu Kaisen.

I think many people often sing Eve’s songs, but all of them have a very wide vocal range, don’t they? By the way, Kaikai Kitan spans from F2 to D5, which made me think, “Can you really sing that low?”—I was surprised too.

It’s a song that’s challenging in the low notes of the A section and the high notes of the chorus.

In the A section, try to let the voice come out slowly from the vocal folds and avoid making it too muffled.

From the B section, it starts to sound more song-like with higher notes, but if you push too hard, your voice will collapse.

Aim to project your falsetto strongly and focus on explosiveness! The chorus is also demanding in terms of breathing, so it might be good to decide in advance where you’ll take breaths.

For songs where breathing is tricky like this, instead of singing everything at 100%, it helps to pace yourself and take small, solid breaths in the brief moments you have!

Bling-Bang-Bang-BornCreepy Nuts97rank/position

Creepy Nuts “Bling-Bang-Bang-Born” × TV Anime “MASHLE: MAGIC AND MUSCLES” Collaboration Music Video #BBBB Dance

This is a track by the hip-hop duo Creepy Nuts that sparked a worldwide dance-challenge craze on social media.

It was written as the opening theme for Season 2 of the TV anime “Mashle: Magic and Muscles,” the Divine Visionary Candidate Selection Exam arc.

The way the protagonist overturns the norms of the magic world using nothing but his own muscles is elevated into lyrics that mirror R-Shitei’s own life story—it’s the kind of thing that really fires you up.

Over an inventive track crafted by DJ Matsunaga, this song repeats spell-like phrases, making it incredibly addictive.

The explosive momentum is clear from the fact that the anime’s OP video, released in January 2024, surpassed 10 million views in just two weeks.

Belt out the chorus with your friends at karaoke and you’re guaranteed an absolute blast.

LiSA “Homura” -MUSIC CLIP-

The hugely popular anime series Demon Slayer has captivated audiences from young children to adults.

This song by LiSA was chosen as the theme for its film adaptation, Demon Slayer: Mugen Train.

Released in 2020, it won the Grand Prize at the 62nd Japan Record Awards.

It’s a grand ballad whose soul-stirring vocals are deeply moving, aligning perfectly with the film’s emotional story.

The piece conveys a strong resolve to embrace all the sorrow and pain of losing someone dear and to carry the feelings entrusted to us into the future.

If you’ve seen the movie, the worldview expressed in the lyrics will resonate deeply.

It’s a message song that gives you the courage to face forward after overcoming a painful farewell.
