We Are Never Ever Getting Back TogetherTaylor Swift29rank/position

Taylor Swift – We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together

A Taylor Swift song that expresses a strong refusal to get back together with an ex, set to a bubbly, poppy melody.

The lyrics, laced with irony and sarcasm, stand out against the upbeat, bright vibe.

Released in August 2012, it was included on her fourth album, Red.

In Japan, it was also used as the opening theme for Fuji TV’s popular show Terrace House.

Its singable melody and relatable lyrics are a big draw.

It’s the perfect track for anyone who’s just been through a breakup or is struggling with an ex.

Sing it at karaoke and you’ll definitely feel refreshed!

Mariah Carey – All I Want For Christmas Is You (Official Video)

This is one of Mariah Carey’s signature songs, loved as a classic Christmas tune.

Released in 1994, it became a major hit in Japan as well.

The song expresses a desire to spend time with a loved one rather than receive Christmas presents, featuring a catchy melody and heartfelt lyrics.

In Japan, it was used as the theme song for the drama “Christmas at Age 29,” leaving a deep impression on many people.

Every December, it reappears on charts around the world.

It’s the perfect track for boosting the holiday spirit or conveying your feelings to someone special.

Mariah Carey – All I Want For Christmas Is You (Official Video)

Mariah Carey’s signature song, “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” Although this piece is often cited as a difficult song, it’s not without singable elements.

The tricky part is mainly the slow-tempo opening; once the beat kicks in and the tempo picks up, the kind of wide-interval vocal runs heard in the intro appear less frequently.

Even so, the overall difficulty remains on the higher side, but given its top-tier recognition and popularity, it’s well worth the challenge.

ComplicatedAvril Lavigne32rank/position

Avril Lavigne – Complicated (Official Video)

This is a song by Avril Lavigne, released in June 2002 as her debut single.

It’s a pop-rock number about people hiding their true selves to fit in with others.

Its message—“Why do you have to go and make things so complicated?”—is conveyed through straightforward lyrics.

The track appears on the album Let Go and became a massive hit, selling over 16 million copies worldwide.

It also won the MTV Video Music Award for Best New Artist in a Video.

It’s a perfect pick for anyone who wants to stay true to themselves—and it’s sure to be a crowd-pleaser if you sing it with friends at karaoke.

Try EverythingShakira33rank/position

Shakira – Try Everything (Official Video)

Just like with R&B and soul, I think many people feel a bit uncomfortable with reggaeton and Latin music.

For those people, I recommend Try Everything.

It’s sung by Shakira, who is from Colombia, but actually, she doesn’t have a powerful voice.

Maybe because of that vocal quality, many of her songs don’t rely on shouting even in the chorus.

This song is like that, and so is the famous Waka Waka.

You do need a bit of vibrato technique, but even if you can’t hit very high notes, you can sing it without any problem.

Don’t Start NowDua Lipa34rank/position

Dua Lipa – Don’t Start Now (Official Music Video)

Dua Lipa’s dance tune “Don’t Start Now.” Even though it’s called a dance tune, it doesn’t have an electro feel.

The track isn’t busy or cluttered, so when you sing it, it’ll probably feel quite simple.

Since Dua Lipa is known for her low vocal tone, the low range is emphasized in this song as well.

That said, it’s not so low that you won’t be able to sing it.

It doesn’t require vibrato or vocal runs, but there are staccato-like vocals, so a good sense of rhythm is necessary.

CupsAnna Kendrick35rank/position

Anna Kendrick – Cups (Pitch Perfect’s “When I’m Gone”) (Director’s Cut)

If you’re confident in your dynamics, I recommend “Cups.” At first, you might think it’s just a typical pop song, but surprisingly, it’s actually country music.

Country songs often tend to be fairly simple and don’t require much dynamic variation, but this track can sound sloppy without good dynamics, so be careful.

Even if you can’t do vibrato, you can get away with it by nicely fading out the ends of phrases.

It’s not an extremely easy song, but give it a try!
