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 Make It Easy to Score High (201–210)
heartAoi Eiru
This is Eir Aoi’s 23rd single overall, released in October 2022.
It was selected as the theme song for the film Sword Art Online Progressive: Scherzo of Deep Night.
The vocal melody doesn’t use a particularly wide range, and the tune itself feels relatively easy to remember and hum along to, so it might be worth preparing as a go-to pick for scoring high in karaoke.
Note that the accent placement in the piano arpeggio phrase of the intro is a bit tricky and can throw you off, so be careful not to lose your entry point for the vocal line.
Also, the key of the chorus differs from that of the so-called verse section, so pay close attention there as well.
This is something I also teach singers in my regular voice training: when producing your voice, engage firmly around your navel to support your upper body as you sing.
Doing so should help you achieve a powerful voice with rich low-end presence like hers, so give it a try!
User ManualNishino Kana
Kana Nishino’s 27th single, released on September 9, 2015.
It was the theme song for the film “No Longer Heroine.” The slightly high-handed lyrics pair perfectly with Nishino’s mischievous and cute vocal delivery, making it a wonderful track.
The vocal melody is very straightforward and easy to sing, so I think it’s great material for aiming for a high score at karaoke.
There are a few parts—such as toward the end of the chorus—where the high notes are sung in falsetto (head voice), so when you actually sing it, be careful to switch registers smoothly.
I am a piano.Takada Mizue
This is singer Mizue Takada’s 12th single, released in July 1980.
Incidentally, the lyrics and composition are by Keisuke Kuwata of Southern All Stars.
In addition to the Southern All Stars’ own version, recordings of cover versions by several artists have also been released.
The vocal melody has that quintessential “Kuwata-bushi” flavor—slightly tinged with melancholy and very appealing—and since the vocal range it uses isn’t particularly wide, it’s arranged so that anyone can easily aim for a high karaoke score just by casually singing along.
If you tense up your voice or let the rhythm rush, you could spoil an otherwise wonderful song, so try to keep your delivery soft from start to finish!
Embracing sleepless nightsZARD
This was ZARD’s fourth single overall, released in August 1992.
It came out during the so-called golden age of J-POP in the 1990s, when million-selling hits were coming out one after another.
Hit songs from that era—not just this one—were packed with go-to, must-sing tracks for anyone aiming for a high score at karaoke! After all, it was a time when how often a song was sung at karaoke had a huge impact on single sales.
Major labels were eager to create and promote songs that were easy to sing at karaoke.
ZARD’s “Nemurenai Yoru wo Daite,” which we’re featuring here, is no exception.
With its very singable, easy-to-remember melody and lyrics, you could even say it was practically made for the general public to aim for high scores at karaoke! It might be fun to have a high-score showdown with your friends using just this one song.
Shangri-LaHashimoto Eriko
Eriko Hashimoto is known as the lead vocalist representing Chatmonchy, the rock band that took flight from Tokushima to the national stage.
While rooted in rock, she has captured the hearts of many listeners with her delicate sensibilities and straightforward lyrics.
Formed in April 2000, Chatmonchy achieved a major breakthrough with a tie-in song for a Fuji TV anime, reaching the top 10 on the Oricon singles chart.
Their powerful vocals, guitar work, and onstage performances have consistently earned high praise.
Even as she navigated life events, she deepened her musicality, and after the band disbanded in July 2018, she has continued to express herself naturally and authentically as a solo artist.
Highly recommended for those seeking music that captivates with strong vocals and sincere lyrics.
Melancholic MaidenErisa
Erisa, who made the leap from idol model to rock band member, captivates with her versatile expressiveness.
As the vocalist of EMONON, she has been fully active in music since 2023, skillfully blending an exhilarating band sound with catchy melodies.
On the album “NO NAME,” the collection of songs—both intense and delicate—moves listeners deeply, and within just a year of forming, the band proved its mettle by successfully headlining a solo show at Shibuya eggman.
Drawing influence from UVERworld and Vaundy, her powerful vocals fused with the expressive skills honed during her idol days create a unique world that’s perfect for listeners seeking a voice that truly resonates.
Because you’re my hero.LiSA
This is LiSA’s 12th single, released on August 2, 2017.
It’s an uptempo rock number, so I think that alone makes it quite easy to sing.
There are several spots in the vocal melody where you need to switch to falsetto for the high notes, so you might want to be careful to manage those transitions smoothly.
If you’re not confident, it might be safer to lower the key and sing entirely in chest voice to aim for a higher score.
