Recommended karaoke songs for teenage girls: classic and popular J-pop hits.

JoyfulIkimonogakari

Ikimono-gakari Joyful 2015

This is “Joyful” by Ikimono-gakari, which was used as the song for Ezaki Glico’s Pocky commercial.

It’s pop and up-tempo—there’s no way it won’t hype up a karaoke session! At live shows, everyone dances while twirling towels.

Bring a towel to karaoke and join in, too.

Kyary Pamyu Pamyu – Put On False Eyelashes

This song is adorable in every way—the vocals, the lyrics, and the choreography.

I’m sure it will be a hit with girls.

The choreography in the chorus is very simple, so if all the girls do it together, the vibe will be perfect.

The music video also has a unique worldview and is really fun, so if your karaoke machine supports it, you should definitely check out the PV as well.

Anyway, this song really, really gets the crowd going! The chorus is so hype that if you choose it, the place will truly light up and everyone will have fun.

I think being able to sing this cutely and playfully is something only girls can pull off, so you should definitely pick it!

Here we go! Phantom Thief GirlMomoiro Clover Z

[Momoclo MV] Go for it! Phantom Thief Girl / Momoiro Clover Z (MOMOIRO CLOVER / IKUZE! KAITOU SHOUJO)

This is Momoiro Clover’s major-label debut single, “Ikuze! Kaitō Shōjo.” Its initial sales were dismal… however! The following year, after the group reorganized from “Momoiro Clover” to “Momoiro Clover Z,” they became a hugely popular idol group known throughout the country.

If you sing your heart out as the sixth Momoclo member, your stress will melt away.

AitaiMiliyah Kato

Miliyah Kato - “Aitai”

While Miliyah Kato has recently come to be associated with brighter songs, like the theme song from Moana, she’s truly wonderful when it comes to singing heartbreak tunes.

Among them, this song really hits all the right notes for girls—sing it at karaoke while chatting about love with your girlfriends, and tears are guaranteed.

Rejuvenation (feat. Hikari Mitsushima)queen bee

QUEEN BEE “Rejuvenation (Feat. Hikari Mitsushima)” Official MV

A Queen Bee song that delicately portrays reflections on the past, the present, and the future.

This work—the first collaboration between Avu-chan and Hikari Mitsushima—was released digitally in March 2023 as a recut single from the album “12-Dimensional,” which came out in February 2023.

Its elegant yet approachable melody is sure to resonate with first-time listeners.

Another hallmark is its versatility across vocal ranges, making it easy to convey emotion.

It’s a recommended track for teenage girls looking to light up a karaoke session.

It might just become your new favorite song.

SHINELeo Ieiri

Leo Ieiri – "Shine"

Among Leo Ieiri’s songs, this one is bright and I think it’s perfect for karaoke.

The lyrics feel like they’ll push you forward and give you courage when you’re starting a new chapter or making a fresh start.

It’s a song I’d like to sing while sharing that feeling with friends in the same situation.
