To the futureKiroro
Kiroro’s second single “Mirai e” was a huge hit and is loved across generations as a go-to karaoke song.
Singing it like a pro is quite challenging, but the melody itself is simple, so with practice you should be able to match the pitches.
The lyrics carry a strong message, and even if you go slightly off-key it doesn’t stand out too much—another reason it’s a great pick.

YELLikimonogakari
Ikimono-gakari’s 15th single, released in September 2009.
While Ikimono-gakari has many bright and energetic songs, this one is very gentle and mellow.
Songs like this—akin to slow ballads—might seem daunting for those who aren’t confident singers, but the song itself isn’t difficult.
Try to sing it gently and carefully, and give it a shot.
In the post-interlude section—the so-called D-melody—if you sing with a stronger, brighter tone to create contrast with the other parts, the overall impression will come across even better.
School HeavenKoizumi Kyoko
Kyoko Koizumi released this as her 28th single in November 1989.
It became the theme song for Fuji TV’s Monday 9 p.m.
drama “Aishiatterukai!,” in which Koizumi also appeared.
Many of you probably know—well, almost everyone likely knows—that it’s a cover of a song originally released by Finger 5 in 1974.
As for the track itself, it’s a wonderfully simple rock ’n’ roll number in the best sense: regardless of vocal skill, the goal is to lift the mood with bright, high-energy fun! Even if you’re not confident in your singing, just shout “Hey!! Hey!!” and belt it out with your friends to get the party going! It’s a song where the most fun wins.
The retro, ’50s American pop vibe is also a charming touch.
Unrequited loveAimer
A female singer attracting attention for her soulful yet delicate voice, Aimer.
“Kataomoi,” included on her fourth album daydream, is a love song that straightforwardly portrays heartfelt emotions.
Despite not being released as a single, it became a long-running hit mainly through streaming.
The melody is fast and complex, but the ensemble feels relaxed, so it should be comfortable to sing at karaoke.
There are moments with wide interval jumps, so stay calm and sing carefully to avoid slipping off pitch.
boyfriendaiko
This is Aiko’s sixth major-label single, released in September 2000.
The intro features a country-style arrangement with banjo that leaves quite an impression.
Basically, it’s a bright and fun song, so even those who aren’t confident singers should just enjoy it without worrying too much about the details.
That said, there are a few spots—like parts of the chorus melody—where the pitch can be a bit tricky, and there are moments where the melody leaps up and down quite dramatically, so be careful there.
Still, overall it’s an easy song to sing, so it might be a good choice as a practice piece for people who feel, “I want to get serious about improving my singing.” It actually includes a surprisingly wide range of vocal elements, so I think it’s also a great song to use as material for vocal training lessons!
User ManualNishino Kana
Kana Nishino’s “Torisetsu” is a unique love song that likens me, the person, to an instruction manual.
I felt it’s a song that seems like it existed before, yet didn’t! Aside from the chorus, it’s more spoken than sung, so even those who are tone-deaf can enjoy it without worrying much about the melody line.
However, because there are a lot of words, where you breathe and where you break the phrases is important.
It might be good to sing as if you’re actually talking to someone! If you sing with no expression, your vocal placement drops into your throat and becomes straining, so try raising your eyebrows and bringing your vocal placement up to eyebrow level.
Aim to sing as lightly as possible.
A one-of-a-kind flower in the worldSMAP
Because the melody doesn’t leap much and it’s sung at a medium tempo, it’s an easy song to sing.
If you go ahead and rope everyone around you into it and sing it as the five members of SMAP—singing as a group of five—you won’t feel anxious about singing alone.
It’s a very famous song, so I think everyone will join in.
