Michael Jackson – Beat It (Official 4K Video)

The King of Pop, Michael Jackson’s classic “Beat It.” If you’re thinking, “This is way too hard, no way,” don’t worry.

It’s actually pretty easy.

That’s because the song’s vocal range isn’t all that wide.

In other words, even if you can’t sing very low or very high, you can still pull it off.

If it feels too high, try lowering the key—you should be able to sing it then, right? There aren’t many vibrato or long-note sections, but there are lots of parts that call for shouts, so focus on singing with power!

Wham! – Last Christmas (Official Video)

The song “Last Christmas” is popular in Japan too.

There are many Japanese artists who have covered it, right? There are probably various factors behind its success, but I think a major reason it became such a big hit in Japan is its simple, J-pop-like melody line.

The song really has the vibe of Japanese pop music.

That means it’s easy to sing even for Japanese people who are used to Japanese melodies.

The English isn’t too difficult, and there aren’t any high-pitched parts either, so I think it’s perfect for singing well at karaoke!

This is the song that became globally famous after being chosen as the theme song for the movie Armageddon.

It’s also very popular in Japan and is well-known as background music on TV shows.

It consistently ranks high in karaoke foreign music charts, so it’s a must when singing songs in English.

Marry YouBruno Mars25rank/position

Marry You

Bruno Mars’s hit song “Marry You.” If you’re thinking, “No way I could ever sing that,” let’s be clear: it is tough (lol).

However, the difficulty isn’t in the vocals—it’s in the English pronunciation.

Since there actually aren’t that many different words in the lyrics, poor pronunciation makes it sound worse than it is.

The melody itself doesn’t have any high parts, and the rhythm is simple, so it’s pretty easy to sing.

In short, as long as you nail the pronunciation, it’s a song that naturally ends up sounding good.

Wait, isn’t Bruno Mars impossible to sing? If that’s what you’re thinking—don’t worry, you can sing him.

In this song, there aren’t any high notes except for the phrase at the end of the chorus.

Plus, as long as you’ve got a sense of rhythm, anyone can end up sounding good.

The melody falls under the funk genre, and funk doesn’t really use long sustained notes or much vibrato.

So it’s surprisingly easy to sing even if you’re not pitch-perfect.

The English might be tricky, but definitely give it a try!

Maroon 5 – Sugar (Official Music Video)

This is an uplifting song by Maroon 5—renowned for their stylish vocal work and pop-savvy melodies—that you’ll want to sing at karaoke.

With a fresh, clean vibe that suits teenage boys as well, it’s a track that boosts your spirits.

Hotline BlingDrake28rank/position

Drake – Hotline Bling

When it comes to genres that are easy to sing even for people who are tone-deaf, hip-hop is probably the top choice.

That said, with Western music, pronunciation can be a concern.

So this time, we’ve picked Drake’s “Hotline Bling,” which is mellow and not too difficult in terms of pronunciation.

Unlike pop, mellow hip-hop rarely uses vibrato, making it easier to sing.

This song doesn’t use any vibrato at all.

Instead, it requires more sense of rhythm than typical songs.

If you’re confident in your rhythm, give it a try.
