Songs to Help Women Sing Better: Practice Tracks for Improving at Karaoke
Conditions for becoming a better singer.
Of course, acquiring correct and efficient vocal production is the most important point, but if you can’t apply the fundamentals you’ve learned to actual songs, it won’t amount to much.
To build that kind of “real-world ability,” it’s crucial to choose appropriate practice songs and, by singing them, develop the expressive skills needed to perform actual pieces.
In this article, I’ve selected songs that seem optimal for the goal of “getting better at singing.”
Even when someone says, “I want to become a better singer,” everyone’s current level varies, so I’ve chosen a wide range—from beginner-friendly songs to more difficult ones.
Some of the individual song introduction articles also include brief tips on how to sing them, so please use those as references and do your best to further improve your skills with the help of this article.
That said, the most important thing is to pick songs you love—the ones that make you think, “I want to sing this!” or “I want to be able to sing this!”—and enjoy singing them.

[For Women] Songs That Make You a Better Singer: Practice Tracks for Improving at Karaoke (1–10)
Forbidden taleBAND-MAID
BAND-MAID is a leading Japanese female hard rock band.
Though their maid outfits might make you think they’re an idol-style group, their skill is on par with serious, full-fledged bands.
Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is Forbidden tale.
It’s a piece rooted in intense hard rock, showcasing techniques like overwhelming vocal power, wide and strong vibrato, shouts, and ad-libs, which will elevate both your fundamental and advanced singing abilities.
Be sure to check it out.
MoonlightHoshimachi Suisei
Suisei Hoshimachi, a female VTuber from hololive who scored a nationwide hit with “Bibideba,” has recently released “Moonlight.” Unlike the flamboyant “Bibideba,” this track is crafted as a chic, downbeat number.
The song leans somewhat heavily into R&B elements, featuring occasional simple ad-libs.
It also makes extensive use of whisper vocals with breathy tones, making it an ideal piece for developing delicate vocal control.
Midnight Door ~ Stay With MeMatsubara Miki
Miki Matsubara’s classic “Mayonaka no Door — Stay With Me” is known as a signature work of city pop, which boasts worldwide popularity.
It’s also a perfect number for improving your vocal skills.
The real charm of this song lies in its expansive long tones.
They’re not just long; they feature well-controlled vibrato with dynamic nuance, making it ideal for building fundamental vocal technique.
Since it’s hard to practice vibrato with many recent songs, be sure to use this track for your practice.

Magic hourRyokushokushakai
“Magic Hour” is the B-side track on Ryokuoushoku Shakai’s seventh CD single, “Summertime Cinderella,” released in July 2023.
While the lead track, “Summertime Cinderella,” was selected as the theme song for Fuji TV’s Monday 9 p.m.
drama “Midsummer Cinderella,” the song introduced here, “Magic Hour,” is used as an insert song in the same series.
It’s a bright pop-rock number that makes you feel refreshed just by listening, but for those aiming to improve their singing, I especially recommend focusing on vocalist Haruko Nagaya’s varied use of vocal production in the high register.
You’ll notice how she freely switches between gentle falsetto, soft mixed voice, and powerful chest voice to express the song.
It’s an ideal piece for mastering high-register expression!
unravelAdo
The masterpiece “unravel,” created by TK, the frontman of Ling tosite sigure.
It drew attention when it was first released, but gained even more popularity after Ado covered it.
The true appeal of this song lies in its vast expressive range: singing with a trembling voice, conveying a sense of despair with falsetto, and expressing pain through screams—it’s a work that exemplifies mastery of vocal technique and expression.
If you can skillfully perform this song, you’ll likely be able to handle most other pieces with ease.
By your side.riria.
This is singer-songwriter Riria.’s ninth digital-only single, released in July 2023.
It was selected as the opening theme for the TV anime “My Happy Marriage.” When ordinary listeners sing this song at karaoke, the most important point is, I think, to fully convey the original track’s bright, warm atmosphere.
If you aim your voice toward the upper palate inside your mouth as you sing, you’ll produce a tone rich in higher overtones, similar to the artist’s—so give it a try.
It’s a perfect song for mastering that kind of bright tone and vocal production!
Trace that dreamYOASOBI
Ano Yume wo Nazotte has a very wide vocal range.
It’s written in a range from D#3 to E5, with the low notes extending more than in other YOASOBI songs.
Speaking of YOASOBI, you probably think of especially high choruses! They’re a perfect fit for this theme.
The A melody stays in the low range, but even there, keep your throat open and let your breath flow.
Making a surprised face helps open the throat—try to maintain that state as you head into the chorus.
In the chorus, you’ll encounter long sustained notes, so engage your lower abdomen to keep your body steady and send your voice straight out with confidence.
That way, your breath will flow well and you can sing smoothly without your voice catching.
Give it lots of tries!
