Among AKB48’s early songs, “Oogoe Diamond” is especially popular.

This track energetically captures the feelings of a woman in love, and its lyrics, which express the courage to pursue love, are truly empowering.

Although it’s a love song, it doesn’t lean into a cutesy vibe, so even people who tend to shy away from idol music may find it easy to sing.

It lifts your spirits and puts you in a positive mood about love.

The choreography in the chorus mainly uses the arm that isn’t holding the mic, making it easy to dance to at karaoke so everyone can join in and get hyped together!

“The Wind Is Blowing” is a well-known song that also serves as an anthem of support set against the backdrop of the Great East Japan Earthquake.

It was created to convey the message of “hope,” portraying the strength to keep holding on to hope while confronting harsh realities.

Characterized by an intense, rock-inspired sound and powerful lyrics, it delivers messages that resonate—such as the idea that the wind keeps blowing through both good times and bad, leading to hope, and the need to pull yourself out of hardship.

The vocal range isn’t particularly wide, so try singing it with a sense of power and directness to carry the message straight through.

Heart Electric, AKB48’s 33rd major single, released in 2013.

This track features Haruna Kojima in the center position.

As you can tell from the intro, it’s a song with a Group Sounds vibe, and the lyrics also feel retro.

Overall, the vocal range stays on the lower side throughout, making it easier to sing even for women who aren’t comfortable with high notes.

The tambourine sounds crisply in the catchy chorus—when you sing it at karaoke, be sure to grab a tambourine and play along; it’ll really hype things up!

AKB48 is an idol group that has been active for many years.

They have produced numerous classic songs, and recently they released a cover of a classic hit.

That song is “Nantettatte Idol.” The original is a masterpiece by Kyoko Koizumi, released in 1985.

As a product of the Showa era, it features a catchy vocal line with relatively little melodic variation.

On the other hand, it contains quite a few sustained notes, so a certain level of endurance is required.

A work notable for its serious, powerful sound and socially conscious lyrics depicting the challenges faced by youth.

It carries a message of pushing forward by overcoming adversity.

Released in October 2010, it sold 827,000 copies in its first week, becoming AKB48’s first million-selling single.

It was featured across various media, including as the CM song for NTT Plala’s “AKB48 × Hikari TV” and as the ending theme for Nippon TV’s “Naruhodo! High School.” It’s a song that gives you courage when you want to feel positive or are about to take a new step.

A supreme ballad that gently embraces every fleeting moment of youth, like cherry blossom petals dancing on the spring breeze.

Cherished as a message song that accompanies the graduation season, this choral-style piece stands out among AKB48’s repertoire, beautifully harmonizing Yasushi Akimoto’s delicately woven poetic world with an unforgettable melodic line.

Released in February 2010 as their 15th single, it was used as the theme song for the TV Tokyo drama “Majisuka Gakuen,” and also served as the ending theme for “Weekly AKB.” The music video featuring members in hakama also drew considerable attention.

It’s a song that softly supports those who have experienced parting with someone dear, or who are about to take a new step forward.

In conclusion

I introduced some AKB48 songs that are easy to sing.

In addition to songs that aren’t too high in key and don’t require too wide a vocal range, I also picked ones where the lyrics aren’t too fast.

Give each track a listen, and if any feel comfortable for you, try singing them at karaoke! I hope this article helps you choose your songs.
