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!

Let’s get started.

Compilation of Cool Male Songs When Sung by Women (21–30)

WANIMA “Matatabi” OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO – Ending theme of the anime “Night of the Living Cat”

This is an up-tempo, energetic rock song used as the ending theme for the TV anime “Night of the Living Cat,” which starts in July 2025! The vocal range is F#3 to B4, so it should be fairly easy to sing, right? The tempo itself is a brisk 165, and there are some rap-like parts, so I recommend memorizing all the lyrics before singing.

It’s a short track under three minutes, but it will definitely hype up the crowd at karaoke! I personally want to add it to my repertoire, too!

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.

Pamiredo (パミレド) – Drunk

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.

From the very beginning, “orbit” unfolds with a melancholic tone, and you might wonder, “Maybe this song doesn’t have any death growls?”—but sure enough, they come in solidly in the latter half.

The vocal range is A#3–G5, and as you’d expect from TK, the high notes are extremely lofty.

When singing, it’s fine to use mostly falsetto, but the key is to avoid letting it become a weak falsetto.

If you keep singing in a weak falsetto, you’ll run out of breath as you go, and you’ll barely be able to pull off the death growls that come after the stronger falsetto in the second half! It’s actually easier if you project both your falsetto and your death growls more strongly from the vocal cords than you think.

Also, one of TK’s charms lies in the spacing between words when delivering the lyrics.

If you sing each word carefully, the sense of poignancy deepens and your voice becomes even more beautiful.

Bye-Bye to youUVERworld

Bye-Bye to youUVERworld

Speaking of UVERworld’s songs, they tend to stay in the high register throughout.

This track, too, keeps high notes from start to finish, and the pitch moves up and down quite a lot, so if you’re not used to singing high, there’s a concern you might end up straining your throat.

The high note that pops up at the end of the chorus jumps to a C5, so it might be good to start by practicing just that part to hit it explosively.

To produce a powerful voice like vocalist TAKUYA∞, you need solid core support! If your body wobbles while riding a train or bus, it means your lower abdomen (tanden) isn’t engaged.

That will make your singing waver too, so try singing with firm strength in your lower abdomen.

It’s a difficult song, so don’t rush—practice steadily!
