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 Easy to Score High on for Women (11–20)
White LoveSPEED
This is SPEED’s fifth single, released in October 1997.
It was a massive hit, selling a total of 2 million copies.
True to the 90s J-pop classics, where being popular at karaoke was practically essential for a hit, it features a very easy-to-remember and singable melody.
The Japanese lyrics fit the music beautifully as well, so if you sing it carefully, it should be relatively easy to score high.
And if you can nail those high notes head-on without switching to falsetto and let them soar straight through, that’s the best!
SoupFujihara Sakura
Sakura Fujiwara, a singer-songwriter who played the heroine in the 2016 TV drama “Love Song” starring Masaharu Fukuyama.
This was her debut single and also the drama’s theme song.
Imitating her distinctive vocal phrasing might be challenging, but the required vocal range isn’t that wide, and if you learn the melody well before performing, you should be able to aim for a high score.
rainbow-coloredayaka
It’s Ayaka’s 13th single, released first digitally in April 2014 and then on CD in June of the same year.
When you think of Ayaka, you probably think of a powerhouse vocalist, so many people might hesitate to sing her songs at karaoke.
But Nijiiro has a very friendly, easy-to-remember melody, so if you don’t focus too much on imitating her vocal style, I think it’s not that hard to score high.
Try singing it while keeping the song’s light, brisk feel and being careful not to make it too heavy.
Try EverythingDream Ami
“Try Everything” is the theme song for the Japanese version of Disney’s animated film Zootopia, while the original version is sung by Shakira.
The Japanese version was released in April 2016 as Dream Ami’s second single.
As befits a Disney anime theme, it has a bright and very cute melody, making it easy to learn for karaoke and a good choice for aiming at a high score.
If you can produce clear, resonant high notes with the same transparency as Dream Ami herself, it’ll be perfect.
Be careful not to let your voice crack on the high notes.
Changeatarashii gakkou no rīdāzu
With their edgy musicality and performance, the idol group ATARASHII GAKKO! has earned high acclaim not only in Japan but also overseas.
Known for their distinctive blend of hip-hop and kayōkyoku, that signature sound is alive and well in this work too.
In particular, this piece has a narrow vocal range, and there are no high notes in either the rap or the singing parts.
Instead, elements like rap flow are essential, making it recommended for those with a good sense of groove.
Give it a try!
bleeding loveHirate Yurina
Yurina Hirate, who was hugely successful as the center of Keyakizaka46, has been leveraging her mysterious persona to pursue a full-fledged career as an artist since graduating from the group.
Her new song is “bleeding love.” While it’s a track based on deep house, compared to songs by Becky Hill—known as a queen of this genre—the vocal line is crafted to be much catchier and easier to sing, making it surprisingly approachable.
There are no long sustained notes either, so it’s perfect for aiming for a high score at karaoke.

cherry (sweet cherry; cherry fruit)Otsuka Ai
Ai Otsuka’s second single, released in December 2003.
It was selected as the opening theme for the music program COUNT DOWN TV for December 2003, and later used as the ending theme for Fuji TV’s variety show Mecha-Mecha Iketeru! in 2004.
Musically, it’s a quintessential 2000s girls’ pop track, featuring a light, upbeat rhythm with a poppy, simple, and accessible melody, making it very easy to sing at karaoke.
It’s an ideal choice if you’re aiming for a high karaoke score.
Sing it brightly, with energy, and have fun!
