[2026] Let’s Sing at Karaoke! A Collection of Christmas Songs by Japanese Female Artists

Merry Tomo-smassYukitomo

[MV] Merry tomoSmas / Tomoe Yuki

While known for her background as a former idol, Tomoe Sachi has also drawn attention through her joint social media presence with her spouse and her work as a TV personality.

Her Christmas song, released in November 2025, delicately portrays everyday winter scenes—like the feel of the city, holiday shopping, and the warmth felt through gloves.

Set to a sparkling pop sound, the lyrics are striking for how they encourage you to honestly express your feelings to someone special.

The simultaneously released piano arrangement is a welcome touch, offering the same melody in a calmer atmosphere.

In the music video, choreography and a heart-filled visual world convey the theme, letting you feel the season with your eyes as well.

It’s perfect not only for a Christmas date with a partner, but also for parties with friends or as BGM for a quiet night alone.

Its cute, warm sound will gently color your holy night.

One-Room ChristmasCARAMEL CANDiD

CARAMEL CANDiD “One-Room Christmas” MV

On Christmas night, spending time alone in a studio apartment.

This song, which revisits the distance between who I am now and the memories of the tree I once gathered around with my family as a child, delicately portrays the loneliness felt all the more in a festive season and the unextinguished longing for warmth.

The clear, high-toned vocals resonate as if awakening the bells and lights from memory, highlighting a lyrical world where sweetness and bitterness coexist.

Released digitally by the four-piece band CARAMEL CANDiD in October 2024, the track was later included on their October 2025 album, “A Place with Neither Heaven nor Hell.” Year-end parties and dazzling celebrations are great, but when you want to quietly look back on the year, this is a song that gently keeps you company for a Christmas spent alone.

Silent EveKarashima Midori

Tomomi Kahala – Silent Eve (duet with Midori Karashima)

It was chosen as the theme song for the drama “Christmas Eve,” starring Atsuko Sendo.

Despite the cheerful feel of the title, it’s actually a sad breakup song—but when it comes to sharing the pain of love, it’s your girlfriends who truly understand, right? If you’ve gone through a painful parting right before Christmas, sing this song and let your female friends lift your spirits!

As many times as you likeCrystal Kay

Crystal Kay – Nando De Mo

A song by Crystal Kay, who has foreign parents and is also proficient in English.

This track is special, as she was heavily involved in composing it, and it’s characterized by the repetition of the title phrase in the chorus.

From the Christmas-inspired intro, it lifts you into a happy mood.

wishasmi

wish – asmi (Official Music Video)

Asmi is a female singer-songwriter from Osaka known for her adorable vocal tone.

She’s a go-to artist for many women in their teens and early twenties.

Of all her songs, I especially recommend “wish.” Although the track is sung throughout in a cute, high tone, the overall range isn’t that wide, so it’s surprisingly easy to sing.

You might feel there’s a lot of falsetto, but if you lower the key by just one step, most women with an average vocal range can sing it entirely in chest voice.

If you’re not confident with high notes, definitely give that a try.

Christmas WishAmuro Namie

Namie Amuro debuts her new song 'Christmas Wish' in a Christmas commercial!

A song I’d like to recommend for a lively, fun time with friends at karaoke on Christmas is “Christmas Wish.” It’s a track Namie Amuro wrote specifically for a collaboration with 7-Eleven’s Christmas cakes.

Because of that, it features bell sounds and has a melody packed with Christmas vibes.

The lyrics are entirely in English, but they use many familiar phrases, so even people who aren’t confident in English will find it easy to sing.

A Snowy ChristmasDREAMS COME TRUE

DREAMS COME TRUE – Snowy Christmas -VERSION ’16- (Live from DWL 2015)

With its mature, sweet melody and Miwa Yoshida’s richly expressive, tender vocals, it’s absolutely wonderful! The tune perfectly fits the title “Yuki no Christmas” (“Snowy Christmas”) and elevates the holiday atmosphere.

It’s one of those classic songs I’d love to hear confident female vocalists tackle—and if you nail it, you’re sure to bring the house down with applause!
