Popular Japanese songs among women in their 20s. A collection of classics that are great to listen to and great to sing (21–30)

I love youuu!HoneyWorks feat. Chuutan

The song “Sukicchu-no!” by HoneyWorks and Chu-tan.

Compared to the previous track “Kawaikute Gomen,” this one tones down the cutesy, coquettish elements and overall delivers a more traditionally girly vibe.

The vocal range is mid2B to hiC, which is slightly high for a typical female vocal piece, but since the song shines through breath work—like breaths and consonants—to enhance its charm, the overall difficulty is on the lower side.

It’s a track that’s sure to be a hit among girls or at mixers.

Tomorrow as wellSHISHAMO

SHISHAMO’s hit song “Ashita mo.” The key change in the chorus feels incredibly satisfying, and thanks to its exhilarating vibe, this J-rock number gained popularity nationwide.

The vocal range is standard, spanning mid1F# to hiC.

The highest note, hiC, appears frequently in the chorus, so it’s a song that requires a bit of stamina.

If it feels tough, try lowering the key.

If the lowest notes are hard to hit, you can alternatively shift them up to around mid1G#.

It’s a track that’s sure to hype up any J-rock fan, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

Currently drawing attention after being targeted with a diss by NENE, the female rapper Chanmina.

Her track “HARENCHI” is a masterpiece that showcases her wide musical range.

In this song, the lowest note is mid1 E, which is on the lower side for a female track, but the highest note is hi B, so the overall range is relatively narrow.

Therefore, as long as you adjust the key, most women should be able to sing it without issue.

The song carries a languid vibe throughout, making the vocal technique known as “fall” particularly important.

You’ll likely learn this technique faster by referencing Western music rather than J‑pop, so while working on this track, listen to Western R&B as well to build your repertoire of falls.

Delicate Lip Jennie High

Jenny High has created a masterpiece that resonates deeply—a heartrending story portraying a woman’s delicate emotions.

The feelings of a woman who tries to hide her inner pain by changing her appearance are carefully depicted through the small item of lipstick.

The song beautifully expresses the turmoil between vulnerability and putting on a brave face, and the collaboration with Chanmina adds further depth.

Included on the album “Jenny Classic,” released in June 2023, the track captured the hearts of many listeners alongside numerous tie-in songs.

It’s perfect for nighttime drives or quiet moments with someone special.

The rich, delicate vocals exude a mature allure, leaving you wrapped in a pleasant afterglow.

This song is performed by Noshi, a 23-year-old artist from Kumamoto Prefecture.

Set to a pop sound, it delivers a compelling message brimming with self-affirmation.

Released in January 2024, the track sparked major buzz on social media, being used in around 95,000 TikTok videos.

Noshi’s clear, transparent vocals and the catchy melody line leave a strong impression, making it a song that lifts your spirits every time you listen.

It’s perfect for anyone who wants to value their individuality or boost their mood.

It’s also easy to sing at karaoke, so it’s a great pick when you want to get everyone hyped.

Aimyon’s new song “Sketch.” Until a little while ago, she was releasing many slightly showy tracks that incorporated trendy J-pop, but lately she’s returned to her roots and has been focusing on folk.

This work is no exception, crafted into a gentle folk song that plays to her greatest strengths.

The vocal range is somewhat wide, but aside from a few phrases that use falsetto, it stays mostly in the midrange, making it very easy to sing overall.

It’s perfect for aiming for a high score at karaoke.

Don’t cheat on me, Koresawa.

Koresawa, a female singer-songwriter known for lyrics that stir romantic feelings, has gained widespread popularity.

If you’re a woman in your twenties, chances are you’ve sung or listened to her songs at least once.

Among her tracks, the one I especially recommend is “Uwaki Shitara Akan de” (“Don’t You Dare Cheat”).

Although it has a pop feel, it actually has a very narrow vocal range, making it easy for any woman to sing.

And because each phrase is short, you won’t miss your cue after taking a breath.
