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 (31–40)

Ingot of Pure Lovetuki.

Right now, singer-songwriter tuki., who’s been causing quite a stir in the public eye over the face-revealing controversy, is attracting popularity with her catchy musicality and stylish vocals—so I imagine many women are familiar with her.

Among her tracks, the one I particularly recommend is Jun Ren’ai no Ingot (Ingot of Pure Love).

Despite its bright tone, the song has a narrow vocal range and doesn’t require advanced techniques like shouts or ad-libs, making it a piece where it’s very easy to aim for a high score.

wa, wo, nnishina

Nishina is a female singer-songwriter who’s gained popularity for her catchy musicality.

In her early days she mainly focused on orthodox J-pop, but recently—perhaps influenced by her connection with Fujii Kaze—her songwriting has taken on a more Western feel with a touch of R&B.

Among her tracks, the one I especially recommend is “Waon.” It has a wide vocal range—but that’s primarily if you sing the chorus in falsetto.

The falsetto is quite high, so it’s perfectly fine to sing it an octave lower.

Overall, the pitch is easy to control in this song, so definitely aim for a high score.

WEDNESDAY CAMPANELLA is a musical unit that’s highly regarded not only by the general public but also by hardcore house-music aficionados.

Their unwavering musical style is part of the appeal, and every track is high quality.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is Ugoku Ten P (Moving Point P).

While it’s a somewhat lesser-known work, their musicality shines through in many aspects.

Even so, the vocal line is far easier than in their other tracks: the range is narrow and the pitch movement isn’t drastic.

If you’re aiming for a high score, it’s definitely worth adding to your repertoire.

Ai Otsuka / Planetarium (Short Ver.)
planetariumOtsuka Ai

Ai Otsuka’s 10th single, released in September 2005.

It has a gentle, relaxed melody, and since it doesn’t require a particularly wide vocal range throughout, I think it’s one of the best choices for aiming for a high karaoke score.

There’s a part in the pre-chorus where the lyrics are sung a bit quickly, so be careful not to rush the rhythm.

In the chorus, there are long notes where you need to sustain your voice while changing pitch, so if you’re aiming for a high score, study her phrasing closely and copy it.

As long as you keep your singing soft and gentle from start to finish, you should be just fine.

YUC’e is an artist gaining attention even from the utaite community.

Her strength lies in her pop sensibilities, and she even handles track-making herself.

Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is Aimai Heart Spice.

This work has a pop style that brings to mind YOASOBI’s Idol.

Although the arrangement changes in the middle, every vocal part stays within an easy-to-sing range, making it perfect for aiming for a high score.

Be sure to add it to your repertoire.

Karaoke Songs That Are Easy for Women to Score High On (41–50)

Prisoner Of LoveUtada Hikaru

This song is Hikaru Utada’s 21st single, released first digitally in March 2008 and then on CD in May of the same year.

The quiet section at the beginning might be tricky to sing in a so-called Western style like Utada herself, but try not to be overly fixated on the original and just give it a go.

The key to singing this song well is to switch appropriately between mixed voice and falsetto.

Mastering this cool track will be incredibly rewarding, so definitely try for a high score!

God knows…Hirano Aya

God knows… / Haruhi Suzumiya (Aya Hirano) [The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya] anime theme song / OP / full lyrics included - cover (God Knows) tried singing
God knows...Hirano Aya

A single featuring insert songs from the TV anime The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, released in June 2006.

The CD jacket features Haruhi Suzumiya.

In the anime itself—episode 12, “Live Alive” of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya—the song was used alongside “Lost my music,” with Haruhi Suzumiya actually performing it on screen.

It’s a very lively, up-tempo rock song with a simple vocal melody, so as long as you adjust the key to suit your range, it’s a good choice for aiming for a high karaoke score.

The high notes in the chorus are a bit high, so if you struggle with high pitches, make sure to find a key setting that works for you in advance.
