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!

Don’t cheat on me.Koresawa

Koresawa “Don’t You Cheat on Me” [Music Video]
Don't cheat on me.Koresawa

Among female listeners, especially those in their 20s, singer-songwriter Koresawa enjoys overwhelming support.

Although she has built a considerable career since her debut, her sweet-and-sour style remains intact, and in “Uwaki Shitara Akan de” (“Don’t You Dare Cheat”), she delivers a cute message that literally warns her boyfriend not to cheat.

The vocal line in this track features very few long tones and stays within a narrow range.

Since Koresawa’s songs often sit in higher registers, this is a must-listen for women seeking an easier Koresawa track to sing.

Brandy War Chronicles – Last Live (Official Music Video)
Last live showBurandē Senki

Brandy Senki is a girls’ rock band that has gained popularity for its diverse musicality.

While they sometimes incorporate Black music styles like R&B and neo-soul, their new track “Last Live” unfolds as an orthodox rock number.

The loud performance can be misleading, but the vocal line is gentle—with no extreme leaps in pitch or intense phrases—so simply following the pitch accurately is enough to aim for a high score.

lightlyTomioka Ai

Ai Tomioka’s new song “Karoyaka ni.” Ai Tomioka is slightly influenced by Western music, and her songs feature several phrases reminiscent of the overseas pop scene.

That trait is strongly present in this work as well, characterized by a modern-pop finish that blends alternative pop and country vibes.

The piece has a fairly narrow vocal range, and while it carries a Western pop essence, it doesn’t require tricky techniques like elaborate ad-libs.

As long as you lock in the rhythm and keep your pitch on point, it’s a song where you can easily aim for a perfect score—so consider adding it to your repertoire.

I’m only gazing at you.Daikoku Maki

As an artist born in Sapporo, Hokkaido, Maki Ohguro has captivated many fans with her powerful vocals and compelling performances.

She began performing in bands in high school and made her debut in 1992.

Since then, she has colored the music scene with songs rooted in pop while embracing a wide range of genres, including rock and R&B.

Known for her strong vocals and catchy melodies, she won the Excellence Award at the Japan Record Awards and the Best 5 Artists at the Japan Gold Disc Awards in 1995.

After overcoming a period of hiatus, she continues to be energetically active today.

Her world, conveyed through powerful singing and lyrics that resonate deeply, is a perfect match for listeners seeking both the strength and warmth that music can offer.

My Room, My Dress Shirt, and MeHiramatsu Eri

Eri Hiramatsu’s biggest hit song, “Room, White Shirt, and Me.” If you’re a woman in your 40s, you’ve probably heard it at least once.

Because Eri Hiramatsu’s vocal range is quite high, many people may think this song requires a wide range.

In reality, it’s simply sung in a high register, and the overall range isn’t broad.

Even women with lower voices should be able to sing it well if they adjust to a suitable key.

The vocal line itself is simple, so be sure to find a key that fits you and give it a try.

Nisshoku Natsuko is a female singer-songwriter who’s gained popularity as a piano-playing vocalist.

She’s not an artist with an extremely low voice, but she does have a nicely relaxed lower register.

Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is “vip?”.

The section where the chorus builds in voltage and then drops suddenly into a low part really brings out the allure of a low voice.

Definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

Kiroromirai e

Kiroro “To the Future” Official Music Video
Kiroromirai e

This was the female duo Kiroro’s second single, released in June 1998.

It’s often sung in middle and high school music classes and at choral competitions, and it’s also a popular graduation song, so many women may have performed it in those settings.

The melody is very simple and straightforward, making it easy to hum, so it’s one of the best choices when you want to aim for a high score at karaoke.

Because it’s such a plain and unadorned song, as mentioned, not trying too hard to sing it perfectly and just singing it naturally might be the best secret to a high score.
