Every Breath You TakeThe Police15rank/position

The Police – Every Breath You Take (Official Music Video)

A signature song by the British band The Police, led by Sting, known in Japanese as “Mitsumete Itai” (“I’ll Be Watching You”).

It’s a track from the classic 1983 album Synchronicity.

I think it’s the song that best showcases Sting’s sweet voice.

By the time the intro phrase comes on at karaoke, everyone will be totally into it.

One Direction – Live While We’re Young

One Direction is a young band composed of hugely popular members from the UK and Ireland.

When you sing their songs at karaoke, try to bring out their fresh vibe.

It looks cool if you keep the rhythm tight where the guitar riff and melody are in unison.

Hey JudeThe Beatles17rank/position

The Beatles – Hey Jude

Released as the first single from Apple Records and included on the compilation album of the same name, the song “Hey Jude” was written by Paul McCartney to comfort John Lennon’s son, Julian Lennon.

It is also known as an unusually long ballad for pop music, running over seven minutes.

Overall, the vocal range is narrow and easy to sing, but the melody rises and falls sharply, so take care not to miss the notes.

With a chorus that repeats at the end and invites a crowd sing-along, it’s a heartwarming number.

When it comes to artists from the UK who sparked a craze so big they were called the second coming of the Beatles, it’s One Direction.

Unfortunately, they’ve disbanded, but their songs are still popular at karaoke.

Among them, “What Makes You Beautiful,” which many people know, makes you look stylish just by singing it.

If you’re looking for Western songs you can sing at karaoke, it’s best to pick well-known ones so everyone can get into it.

Maroon 5 is a globally popular band that has successfully toured Japan multiple times and is extremely well-known here.

Their song “Girls Like You” features internationally famous Hollywood stars and athletes in its music video, so chances are many people have seen or heard it at least once.

LMFAO – Party Rock Anthem ft. Lauren Bennett, GoonRock

Anyway, it’s a real crowd-pleaser! If you can sing it, you’ll look super cool! Aside from the chorus, the verses are fast, so it might take a bit of time to master perfectly, but if you practice starting with the short phrases and build up gradually, you’ll be fine.

That’s because it’s mainly a song for dancing and getting everyone hyped.

Can’t Feel My FaceThe Weeknd21rank/position

The Weeknd – Can’t Feel My Face (Official Video)

The Weeknd is an artist whose work blends R&B elements with genres like trip-hop and chillwave in a really compelling way.

His voice and the feel of his songs are super reminiscent of Michael Jackson.

Among English-speaking artists, his sense of style is truly top-tier.

This song is on the harder side compared to the ones featured here, but if you can pull it off, it’ll look seriously cool! If you’re confident in your groove and high notes, definitely give it a try.

The key to this song is how you cut off the ends of phrases.

Don’t let them trail off weakly—finish them clean and sharp.

It’s R&B, so the difficulty is higher, but it’s absolutely worth the challenge! It’ll surely level up your vocal technique!
