Let me introduce “Not Today,” a song known for its profound message.

It’s one of the tracks included on the album YOU NEVER WALK ALONE.

The group’s leader, RM, took part in writing the lyrics, shaping them into an uplifting message for those facing hardships.

Another appeal is his unique approach, including references to quotes from films and historical figures.

While the song is generally low in register, it features moments where the key suddenly rises.

Keep that in mind when you sing it.

Boy With LuvBTS

How about trying to sing “Boy With Luv,” a song overflowing with happiness? It’s also famous for featuring Halsey.

It serves as an answer song to 2014’s “Boy In Luv”: while the earlier track focuses on self-love, this one centers on love for the people around you.

Singing them back-to-back might help the message come through even more clearly.

The key is generally on the higher side, so it’s also recommended for those who find low notes difficult.

Black SwanBTS

Let me introduce Black Swan, a piece with a captivating dark worldview.

This is a song themed after the film of the same name, Black Swan, with the group’s leader RM contributing to the lyrics.

It portrays the darkness within a dancer’s heart.

Its structure moves from a quiet interlude into an intense chorus, which makes the vocals feel especially powerful by contrast.

There’s also a Japanese version, so it’s great that you can fully understand the poetic lyrics and sing along.

DNABTS

We can’t leave out “DNA,” with its pleasant EDM-style sound.

This one is incredibly easy to groove to.

The intro kicks off with Jungkook’s whistling, and the track builds around it, giving it a fresh, poppy feel.

Then, with the addition of EDM-like heavy bass, it becomes a very danceable song—perfect when you want to sing and move your body.

Also, the tempo is relaxed with lots of sustained notes, making it a good pick if you’re aiming to rack up extra points.

Hormone WarBTS

When you want to liven things up with everyone, “War of Hormone” is a perfect choice.

It’s a track included on the album DARK & WILD.

It features sampled sounds reminiscent of retro games and intricately woven rhymes.

At the same time, it has relatively few high-pitched parts and a relaxed tempo, which is part of its appeal.

That makes it great for singing together in a lively group.

By the way, the lyrics differ between the Japanese version and the original, so it can be fun to sing while comparing the two.

In conclusion

We’ve introduced BTS songs that are easy to sing and great to try at karaoke.

As you hum along while checking the lyrics, your body will naturally pick up the rhythm.

Adjust the key, slow down the tempo to practice, and add your own touches—then go all out and enjoy yourself at karaoke!
