When it comes to college students, drinking parties and karaoke for the after-party are classics for having fun.

We also explain vocal techniques, so this is recommended for those who struggle with their voice.

Top 10 karaoke songs that are easy to sing for tone-deaf beginners, recommended for college students
Please forget it.Yorushika
Yorushika’s masterpiece “Please Forget.” Yorushika excels at an ennui-tinged musical style, and this piece, in particular, is wrapped in an especially languid atmosphere.
The track makes effective use of contrasts between stillness and motion, and the overall composition settles into a quiet melody.
The vocal line is very calm as well, with a narrow range and plenty of rests, so there’s no need to worry about breathing.
As long as you keep a steady rhythm, it’s possible to aim for a high score, so be sure to add it to your repertoire.
Someone like you.riria.
Riria is a popular singer-songwriter whose real, straightforward lyrics perfectly suit modern society, earning strong support from young people—especially students.
Among her songs, the one I particularly recommend is “Anta Nante.” While it may sound like the higher notes stand out a bit, the overall vocal range is surprisingly narrow.
Because it doesn’t demand a specific vocal timbre, it’s a great track to add to your repertoire.
I can’t learn to like myself.Sakurazaka46
Keyakizaka46, a Sakamichi idol group popular for their stylish musicality.
Among the Sakamichi groups, they’re known for having difficult songs, but there are some that are easy to sing.
The one I recommend is “I Can’t Learn to Love Myself.” This track features a very catchy vocal line and doesn’t require a particularly wide range.
With many melodies that lean slightly toward a Showa-era style, it should be manageable even for those who tend to go off pitch.
Give it a listen.
Bunny GirlAKASAKI
Although still in his teens, the young singer-songwriter AKASAKI has already produced several hit numbers.
Many university students—being close in age—have probably heard his songs.
His new track is Bunny Girl.
It’s a catchy, lighthearted tune, but surprisingly, it has a narrow vocal range.
Since there are no long sustained notes either, as long as you stay mindful of rhythm and pitch, you can aim for a high score even if singing isn’t your strong suit.
Be sure to add it to your repertoire.
CharlotteSuiyōbi no Campanella
Wednesday Campanella is a musical unit that combines quality techno and pop music with high taste, earning widespread popularity.
They have many hit songs, but the one we especially recommend for university students is Charlotte.
Despite its bright rhythm, this track surprisingly has a narrow vocal range and features a catchy, easy-to-sing vocal line.
You don’t have to worry much about going off pitch, and even if you can’t hit high notes, you can still sing it—so it’s a piece we particularly encourage people who aren’t confident in their singing to try.
AzaleaYonezu Kenshi
Kenshi Yonezu, a singer-songwriter immensely popular among young people.
I believe many university students are also big fans of his music.
Recently, Yonezu has been releasing rather challenging songs, but his new track “Azalea” is different.
The entire piece has a distinctly downbeat atmosphere, with a calm vocal line that doesn’t fluctuate much.
However, a falsetto appears in the final chorus, so if you’re not comfortable with head voice, lower the key—especially for that section—to adjust.
HabitSEKAI NO OWARI
SEKAI NO OWARI’s classic song “Habit,” released in 2022, gained popularity with a gritty musical style that hadn’t been seen in their work before.
Even going into 2023, it continues to enjoy strong, enduring popularity.
Since the song is groove-centered, it doesn’t require much vocal prowess.
There aren’t any high parts either, so it should be easy to sing.
College karaoke can be pretty demanding physically, so a track like this—one that gets people hyped without needing you to belt—might be a perfect fit.
