Songs that score well at karaoke for women in their 20s

The Ten CommandmentsAdo

[Ado] The Ten Commandments (1984) (Lyric Video)

When you think of Ado, her shouts in the mid-to-high range and the expressive high notes probably come to mind, right? While those aspects are certainly part of her appeal, her lower register actually holds a great deal of charm as well.

In her cover of Akina Nakamori’s classic “Jukkai (The Ten Commandments),” you can fully savor Ado’s rich low tones.

Since it’s an older song, the vocal line is very straightforward.

That simplicity leaves little room for the kinds of tricks you find in modern pop, but it also makes it easy to follow the pitch—so consider adding it to your repertoire.

Shiin, a female singer-songwriter known for her distinctive musical style that mixes various genres with an R&B foundation, is captivating audiences.

Her new song “Uwasa no Ano Ko,” following the popularity of “Masho no Onna A,” features a slightly surreal melody.

Stylistically, it might feel somewhat close to Noshi.

While there aren’t many low-end phrases, the overall arrangement stays in the midrange, making the vocal line very easy to sing for women with lower voices.

When it comes to massive viral hits in recent years from HoneyWorks—the creative collective that has continuously led a music scene centered on internet culture since the 2010s—it has to be “Kawaikute Gomen” (“Sorry I’m Cute”).

Voice actor and artist Saori Hayami’s irresistibly cute vocals and the lyrics that are almost shamelessly adorable sparked huge buzz, and the MV’s choreography went explosively viral on social media, inspiring countless covers.

Its world that wholeheartedly affirms the self gives you a powerful boost.

And when you sing it at karaoke, don’t be shy—lean into the cuteness and really play up the “kawaii” factor.

Singer-songwriter Hana Sekitori has gained popularity for her deeply affecting musicality.

Her voice is perfectly described as rounded and warm, and you can always hear the emotion in her slightly lower-range vocals.

Among her songs, the one especially recommended for women with lower voices is “Warukunai” (“Not Bad”).

Reminiscent of Miyuki Nakajima’s style, it features richly resonant mid-to-low phrases throughout every section, from the verse to the chorus.

The vocal line is very simple, making it an easy song to sing as well.
