[For Women] Shine in the spotlight by singing difficult songs at karaoke! (11–20)
Soul RevolutionSuperfly
A hit song from 2010 featuring a powerful rock sound and overwhelming vocal prowess.
Chosen as NHK’s soccer theme song for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, it was used across J.League broadcasts and other soccer programs, energizing and moving many listeners.
If you want to sing something strong and bold, many people turn to Superfly’s songs.
However, because “Tamashii Revolution” opens with the chorus, if you go full throttle from the start you’ll run out of stamina; the key is to conserve energy and keep a good balance as you sing.
There are also many parts where both the rhythm and pitch bounce around, and unless you can instantly switch between chest voice, falsetto, and mixed voice, it’s quite difficult to deliver it with full impact.
bye byeAYANE
The overall vocal range of the song is narrow and very calm, from A3 to B4, but its defining feature is a ballad × R&B groove, so the key is how well you can ride the rhythm.
Also, if you just let it flow and sing vaguely, you won’t get much dynamics, and it’ll feel underwhelming even at karaoke.
If you lock into the beat at double-time and pay attention to fine accents, the dynamics will come naturally, and listeners will likely find it easier to catch the groove and enjoy it.
The key point is to look cool and keep the rhythm with your head! It’s not a contest of vocal power, but it’s highly recommended for those who want to showcase their sense of style.
A world where the sun does not riseAimer
This song, which is also the theme for “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle Arc The Movie Chapter 1: Akaza Returns,” spans about E3 to E5, so I think it’s quite challenging to sing on a first try.
When I first listened, Aimer’s English-like pronunciation made me wonder, “Is this a Western song?” but it was solidly in Japanese (lol).
In the A section, the phrases are sung one by one in the lower range, but from around the B section it gradually becomes more emotional.
There are plenty of high notes, but rather than belting them in chest voice, using a stronger head voice brings out both the poignancy and the power, which better matches the song’s mood.
From low to high parts, try singing with your eyebrows raised to help keep the pitch stable!
CRAZZZYAooo
CRAZZZY, released exclusively via digital distribution on September 30, 2025.
The lyrics and composition were handled by Tsumiki from NOMELON NOLEMON, and the song really showcases Tsumiki’s signature style.
While CRAZZZY has a relatively fast tempo, the rhythm stays steady, so once you lock into the tempo, you’ll definitely be able to sing it well.
The vocal range sits in the mid to slightly high register, so either adjust the key to a comfortable range or keep your resonance forward in your head to project without straining your throat.
As long as you’ve got groove and momentum, you can make it sound cool! I’m a fan of this artist too, so if you want more tips for singing it, I’d be happy to give you advice!
Osaka LoverDREAMS COME TRUE
It’s a tie-in song for Universal Studios Japan’s attraction “Hollywood Dream – The Ride.” It’s said to be a love song that portrays the bittersweet feelings of a woman in a long-distance relationship, using Osaka dialect lyrics and a vibe described as “adorably silly with a touch of melancholy.” When you sing it, pay attention to the bouncy rhythm.
It would be a shame if the A-melody sounded flat, so it’s recommended to keep a solid sense of rhythm as you sing.
The chorus starts with the syllable “na,” so the pronunciation should have a slightly nasal quality.
It seems better to come in a bit earlier than you think.
Since the overall range is on the higher side, keep your pitch from dropping by lifting your eyebrows and facial muscles, projecting crisply as if resonating in your head at all times.
If you sing it cutely in Osaka dialect, everyone around you is sure to feel uplifted!
Fighting My WayHatsuboshi Gakuen, Giga, Hanami Saki
This is a character song from the game “Gakuen Idolmaster,” commonly called Gakumas, and it’s the solo track of Saki Hanami, whom my student called the final boss! I tried singing this song at karaoke myself, but it’s absolutely not something you can sing just from casually listening to it! The tempo is fast, and the melody keeps coming at you in waves, so unless you really listen carefully and get to the point where you can hum along, it’s pretty tough to pull off at karaoke…
In fact, Gakumas features a lot of songs made by Vocaloid producers, so most of them are apparently quite challenging.
It’s a fun song just to listen to, and if you can sing it, it’s both cool and super satisfying! I recommend humming when you’re trying to memorize the song.
Don’t push from your throat—try humming lightly so the resonance sits around your brow/forehead area.

BibbidebaHoshimachi Suisei
Popular VTuber Suisei Hoshimachi.
In addition to her livestreams and YouTube activities, she’s also a highly successful vocalist.
Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is “VIVID BAD SQUAD” (Bibideba).
It’s currently one of her biggest hits.
While the track is catchy, it’s also quite challenging.
The sudden pitch jumps in the chorus make it hard to sing steadily, even for those confident in their vocal skills.
Be sure to check it out.
