A collection of cool songs that sound great when sung by women, originally male songs
These days, more male artists with high, soaring vocal ranges are emerging, and it’s becoming common for women to sing songs originally by male artists.
So this time, I’ll introduce men’s songs that sound especially cool when sung by women!
When a woman intentionally sings a man’s song, that contrast creates a fresh vibe and can make it sound really cool.
Songs by high-tenor male artists can also be easier for women to sing, so if you’re thinking, “I want to sing a male artist’s song at karaoke, but I don’t know what to pick,” use this as a reference!

Compilation of Cool Male Songs When Sung by Women (21–30)
THE DAYPorunogurafiti
PornoGraffitti is famous for their high vocal range, and I think “THE DAY” is one of their highest songs, especially at the top end.
The tempo is quite fast too, so if you’re going to sing it, it’ll be tough to keep up unless you really memorize the song first.
Also, vocalist Okano mostly uses chest voice and belts the high notes in his natural voice, but the highest note at the end of the chorus, C#5, is in falsetto.
That switch is so cool, isn’t it? Since the song is up-tempo, if you’re not comfortable with high notes, I recommend lowering the key by one or two steps instead of starting in the original key.
Rather than focusing on pitch at first, start by getting used to the speed! You might get caught up in just getting the notes out, but don’t forget to breathe!
DrunkPamiredo
If you want to make your low register sound alluring with a stylish, sexy track, I recommend “Drunk.” It’s a song by the enigmatic singer-songwriter Pamiredo, featuring an irresistibly sultry melody right from the intro.
The vocal line stays in the low to low-mid range throughout, and even the climactic sections remain quiet and low, which will bring out the best in a man with a deep voice.
Be sure to add it to your repertoire.

over the topMiyamoto Hiroji
Hiroji Miyamoto, the vocalist of Elephant Kashimashi, has been active for many years.
Lately he’s also been thriving as a solo artist, winning support from younger generations thanks to his highly original musicality and vocals.
His new song “over the top” is perfect for savoring soaring high notes.
While it doesn’t feature much of the trendy falsetto, it repeatedly showcases a powerful mixed voice instead.
If you’re a man who has ever admired strong, high-pitched vocals, this is a track you’ll want to check out.
crimsonX JAPAN
X JAPAN’s famous and high-pitched song “Kurenai” starts off so relaxed that you might find yourself thinking, “Is this really that song?” For the record, that’s exactly what I thought the first time I heard it (lol).
It might be easier for women to sing in the original key, but it’s quite high for men! Toshl’s vocals are truly incredible—he not only growls but also maintains solid high tones throughout.
The key to hitting high notes is your core.
If your body wobbles, your voice won’t project forward, so make sure to support from your lower abdomen (tanden).
There are parts that feel like shouting, but if you actually just shout, you’ll wreck your throat.
Try to resonate in your head with a “Kyaa!” kind of image instead.
This is definitely a song you’ll want to add to your karaoke repertoire!
Lights Off (feat. Natori)TAKU INOUE
Music producer TAKU INOUE, known for his sophisticated musicality and collaborations with many artists.
“Lights Off (feat.
Natori)” is a collaboration with singer-songwriter Natori that makes the most of Natori’s youthful yet low, sweet vocal tone.
While the song features some high phrases with touches of falsetto, it generally sits in a lower register overall, which highlights the appeal of women with lower voices.
The vocal line is also gently contoured with little dramatic rise and fall, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
In conclusion
I introduced cool songs by male artists that sound great when sung by women.
Many of the male singers have relatively high ranges, so I think there were plenty of songs that are easy for women to sing as well.
When a woman intentionally sings a male artist’s song, it often sounds fresh and cool because of the contrast and novelty.
Of course, which songs are easy to sing will also depend on your voice type, so I’d be happy if you can find artists and tracks that suit your voice and let you sing comfortably and stylishly!
