Karaoke songs that make it easy for women to score high

Karaoke systems with scoring features have been getting more and more sophisticated lately, and an increasing number now evaluate vocal techniques like vibrato and scooping.

However, the largest part of the scoring criteria is still the accuracy of melody and rhythm.

In this feature, we focus on those criteria and have compiled a selection of songs that are easy to sing and likely to score high, especially ones where it’s easy to follow the melody and rhythm.

When karaoke has a scoring function, you can’t help but want to go for a high score, whether you’re confident in your singing or not.

For each song, we’ve also included tips on how to earn a high score, so be sure to use them as a reference and aim for your best.

That said, the most important thing is to forget about the numbers and just sing freely and have fun the way you like!

Karaoke Songs That Are Easy for Women to Score High On (61–70)

ButterflyKimura Kaera

Kaela Kimura “Butterfly” [short ver.]
ButterflyKimura Kaera

This is a song by Kaela Kimura that was released exclusively as a digital single in 2009.

It was reportedly written for a close friend’s wedding and was also used in a commercial for the wedding magazine Zexy.

The song is composed within an easy-to-sing vocal range and can be performed with a calm vibe, so if you sing it comfortably at your own pace, you should be able to score high fairly easily!

NEW LOOKAmuro Namie

Released as a single in 2008, it was used as the commercial song for P&G’s “Premium Vidal Sassoon.” Setting itself apart from her previous danceable tracks, Namie Amuro appears refreshingly new in 1970s mod fashion inspired by Twiggy.

With a narrow vocal range and no high notes even in the chorus, it’s an easy number to sing for women who can’t hit high pitches.

Secret Of My HeartKuraki Mai

Mai Kuraki’s third single, released in 2000, became a million-selling smash hit.

It was also used as the ending theme for the hugely popular anime Detective Conan.

While the song requires some technique—such as using falsetto in parts—its melody is generally simple and repetitive, so once you get the hang of it, you should be able to aim for a high score in karaoke!

As many times as you likeDREAMS COME TRUE

“Nando Demo” is popular across all generations.

I used to sing it a lot too, and it seems many people are familiar with the chorus, so it always got the crowd going.

It’s definitely a song worth knowing! The tricky part of this song is the breathing during the chorus.

Where the same phrase repeats, you can run out of breath and it gets tough.

Proper diaphragmatic breathing is important, but rather than belting each phrase with full power, try to focus on connecting the lines as you sing.

When you shift your mindset, your body will adjust so your breath lasts through the phrase.

Also, the last chorus is the most demanding; singing it with a powerful voice is more for advanced singers.

Don’t push yourself—start by singing it lightly, and you’ll get used to it little by little.

It’s also a great song for strengthening your chest voice, so give it a try in practice!

Moonlight LegendDALI

Moonlight Densetsu, known as the opening theme of Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon, has a simple, memorable melody line and a vocal range that seems easy for anyone to sing.

If you sing too flatly from the verse into the chorus, the high notes in the chorus might feel tight and your voice could crack.

When you sing, try to focus on producing a bright tone.

If you can keep that, you should be able to move smoothly when the melody changes and stay on pitch more easily.

In any case, be mindful of carefully tracing the melody!

Song of LoveKōda Kumi

Kumi Koda / “Ai no Uta” (from the new album “WINTER of LOVE”)
Song of LoveKōda Kumi

Koda Kumi’s 37th single, released in September 2007.

It’s what you’d call a classic love ballad.

When it comes to singing ballads at karaoke, many people might hold back, thinking, “Don’t you have to be a really good singer?” But don’t be intimidated! With this song, the melodic development follows the textbook style of a ballad, so I think anyone can sing it comfortably.

Because it has a very straightforward and beautiful melody, take care with each note and each word of the lyrics, and sing it thoughtfully and delicately.

I’m sure a high score won’t just be a dream!

I’m falling in love with you againSakamoto Fuyumi

Fuyumi Sakamoto – I'm Falling in Love with You Again
I'm falling in love with you againSakamoto Fuyumi

I think it’s a song many people know from commercials.

It’s a beginner-friendly enka that you can sing without using vibrato like in traditional enka.

The biggest key is to immerse yourself emotionally and boost your score with expressive delivery.

Be careful not to slip off the rhythm.
