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 Recommended for Women That Are Easy to Score High On (111–120)
Angel in my heartSIZUKU
A song by singer and actress SIZUKU, digitally released in July 2023.
It serves as the theme song for the serial TV drama “I Used to Be an Idol, Now I’m a Deliveryman,” starring Yuma Teranishi and featuring SIZUKU herself as the heroine, which begins airing on BS Fuji from July 2.
The track unfolds quite dramatically—starting with a ballad-style opening, shifting to an up-tempo section, and returning to a ballad feel toward the end.
Throughout, however, the vocal melody remains consistently very singable, and the range used isn’t very wide.
As long as you keep up with the song’s development, I think it’s a piece that anyone will find easy to sing.
To aim for a high score when singing this song at karaoke, the key points will boil down to how you cut off notes and how you sustain them.
Focus on those aspects, study them, and then give it a try.
Come, spring.Matsutōya Yumi
This was Yumi Matsutoya’s 26th single overall, released in October 1994.
In addition to being chosen as the theme song for the NHK morning drama of the same name, it secured numerous tie-ins, including CM songs for Huis Ten Bosch’s “Tulip Festival,” Yomiuri Shimbun’s “Mega Moji Campaign,” Suntory’s “BOSS Rainbow Mountain Blend,” and All Nippon Airways’ “Dreaming Airplane: Hometown” commercial, making it a major hit of the 1990s.
The vocal melody does not span a very wide range, and the tune itself is crafted to be easy to hum and enjoy, so it’s an excellent choice when you want to aim for a high score at karaoke.
Be sure to sing gently and carefully overall so your vocal production and delivery don’t become rough.
planetariumOtsuka Ai
This is Ai Otsuka’s 10th single, released in September 2005.
In addition to being used as the image song for the first season of the TBS drama “Boys Over Flowers” starring Mao Inoue, it was also featured in a music.jp commercial.
It’s a fine track where Ai Otsuka’s beautiful, overtone-rich voice shines over a slow, wistful vocal melody.
Fitting the song’s character, the vocal line is crafted to be very simple and straightforward, making it easy for anyone to pick and aim for a high score.
Try singing gently and carefully, in a way that nestles against the quiet, heartrending backing track.
I want to protect youMatsutōya Yumi
This is Yumi Matsutoya (Yuming)’s 17th single, released on June 21, 1981.
It was written as the theme song for the film “Nerawareta Gakuen” (The Aimed School).
The melody is very familiar and easy to remember, and the vocal range used isn’t particularly wide, making it a song you can casually hum along to.
The way the lyrics fit the melody is also very natural and easy to sing—honestly, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call it the perfect song for scoring high in karaoke! Although Yuming has a very distinctive singing style and voice, try to avoid slipping into an impersonation when you sing it.
Even when I become an old ladyMoritaka Chisato
This is Chisato Moritaka’s 16th single, released on June 25, 1992.
It was also used as the theme song for the Nippon TV drama “Matta Nashi!” Moritaka once released an album titled “Declaration of Non-Talent!!,” and that spirit is alive here in a good way—the song is crafted so anyone can sing and enjoy it.
Musically, there are very few difficult parts to sing, so it might be fun to compete for high scores with friends using just this song.
It’s a great track that’s fun to sing while also letting you aim for a high score!
Jewelry dayayaka
This is Ayaka’s fifth single overall, released in July 2007.
It was also chosen as the theme song for Shochiku’s film “Last Love.” Set against a simple, acoustic backing track, the song lets you fully enjoy Ayaka’s incredibly charming vocals.
Since Ayaka is known for her exceptionally strong singing ability, many people might think, “Is it really easy to score high on this?” But if you listen closely to the original and study the finer nuances of her performance, there’s nothing to fear! In fact, because her use of dynamics and vibrato is very clear and easy to follow, I’d say this is a song where, if you carefully imitate her delivery, you can aim for a very high score.
Of course, it’s undeniable that to freely employ these techniques and express the song well, you need to have a solid foundation in singing.
Still, I encourage you to give it a try.
Never endsUru
“Never ends,” the theme song for the TBS Friday drama “DOPE: Narcotics Control Division Special Investigation Unit,” will be familiar to those watching the show.
The verse to pre-chorus range is set on the lower side, so try singing gently and carefully from the start without belting.
The high notes in the chorus go up to around D#5, but avoid forcing it—aim to deliver them cleanly in head voice like Uru.
There’s also a low note around C3 in the bridge, which may be low for many women, though lower-voiced female singers might find it manageable.
Sing gently without straining your throat.
