Sorry for Being Cute feat. ChuutanHONEY WORKS
The song “Kawaikute Gomen feat.
Chu-tan,” which the public rated as going beyond cute into downright calculated, was initially treated somewhat like a ‘red-flag’ track.
However, its blatantly cutesy lyrics actually became a way to proudly show off cuteness, and it gradually rose to become a go-to anthem for girls.
As for the hi D at the start of the chorus, you don’t have to use falsetto there— a light mixed voice works as a substitute.
Try adjusting the key up or down to find the most comfortable range for you.
Tokyo Shandy RendezvousMAISONdes feat. Kafu, Tsumiki
The remake of the anime Urusei Yatsura garnered overwhelming support from younger generations.
“Tokyo Shandy Rendezvous” is the theme song for the remake version and also became a topic of discussion in Japan as a meme related to Teikyo Heisei University.
The vocal range is mid1 F# to high D, but the most frequently appearing high note is high E, so it’s best to adjust the key with an emphasis on making that note easier to sing.
EdisonSuiyōbi no Campanella
They’re popular across a wide range of generations—from hardcore techno fans to more visually oriented general audiences—but if we’re talking about their most popular works, wouldn’t it have to be “Edison”? It showcases the cuteness of a female vocal to the fullest, while also conveying a certain fragile quality.
The vocal line is very feminine, but the range is not very wide at mid2B to hiC#, so definitely give it a try.
Silent majorityKeyakizaka46
Keyakizaka46’s debut single “Silent Majority,” released in 2016, is a track that strongly conveys a “cool” image.
It evokes the image of a strong, grounded woman and feels like it gives listeners a supportive push, lifting their spirits.
If you sing this as the first song at karaoke, it will surely captivate everyone—cool and energizing.
It’s a powerful number that seems to raise the morale of the whole room.
Immoral SummerNogizaka 46
Nogizaka46’s “Immoral Summer,” which became available for streaming starting in July 2025.
Since the lyrics are packed with summery words, it might be a good idea to start learning it now for the coming season! Rather than a “cute, idol-like” tune, it has a slightly cool vibe that makes you want to sing along.
The overall range leans more toward the mid to low register than high notes, so it’s a song you can comfortably sing in your natural voice.
That said, one thing to watch out for when singing mid–low songs is that if you let it just flow without intention, it can lose dynamics and end up sounding dull.
Keep your facial muscles lifted, aim to resonate around the glabella area, and be mindful of accenting the first beat of each measure! Since it’s a group song, there’s hardly any rest when you sing it solo, but it’s totally fine to prioritize the parts you want to sing.
There’s probably choreography too, so try incorporating it and have fun!
illusionRyokushokushakai
Ryokuoushoku Shakai is often associated with songs that sit high in the vocal range, but “illusion,” which started streaming in July 2025, has little range fluctuation and is set in a key that’s comfortable to sing.
If you’re thinking, “I love Ryokushaka, but their songs are too high for me to sing!” this one is an easy track to try.
The biggest point of this song is the rhythm.
It has a step-like groove throughout—once you lose it, it’s hard to get back on—but using your body and hands while singing makes it easier to catch the groove and sing along.
It’s a fun song that’s easy to sing in chest voice and sure to hype up a karaoke session, so I’m adding it to my repertoire too! It’s probably best to memorize the lyrics and melody to some extent before giving it a go.
It’s a cool track—let’s learn it together!
Kaiju no Hanabuta (Monster’s Flower Song)Vaundy
Vaundy’s hugely popular song “Kaijuu no Hanauta” is one my students—regardless of gender—have practiced many times in vocal lessons! It’s a bit high for male singers, but it seems quite comfortable for female singers.
It’s definitely a song worth knowing.
The overall range spans two octaves from D3 to D5, and the pitch climbs significantly toward the latter half.
There are plenty of falsetto parts throughout, so those who are good with falsetto should be able to sing it smoothly.
Just be careful not to forget to breathe, since there are almost no breaks.
The sustained long note in the last chorus feels great, and there are chorus sections as well, making it perfect for getting everyone hyped!
