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)

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.

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.

“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!

For those starting vocal training, MISIA is someone everyone admires.

As expected, many people set her powerful voice and high notes as their goal.

Among her songs, the one that’s especially easy to sing and popular with students is “Ai no Katachi.” Interestingly, it’s not the high range but the melody line that many people struggle with, so I recommend listening closely first to understand exactly where the lyrics are phrased before you sing.

When you sing, imagine a large space like a hall or a grassy field, and belt it out there—you should find your voice comes out better.

The key is not to tense up; aim your voice into the distance.

A track included on YOASOBI’s album “THE BOOK 2,” which was released on December 1, 2021.

It also serves as the theme song for a stage play of the same name starring Kei Tanaka.

The vocal melody spans a wide range and features a rather distinctive—indeed, complex—melodic line, so as a practice piece it may be better suited for more advanced singers.

Precisely because of that, however, mastering this song will be extremely rewarding.

In the original recording, there seems to be a somewhat strong pitch-correction effect applied, likely for production purposes, and to sing it like the original, the most important thing is to sing with highly accurate pitch.

It’s also crucial to switch smoothly between vocal registers to cover the wide melodic range.

It’s a demanding song, but do your best and give it a try in practice!

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!

DIGNITYAdo

Ado’s 19th digital-only single, released in September 2023.

It was selected as the theme song for the film “The Silent Service.” Although it’s a slow-tempo rock ballad with a dramatic progression, Ado delivers it with remarkable dynamism.

Pay attention to the fine details—such as the use of breath noise within the vocals and the differences in vocal production created by dynamic contrast—and practice reproducing them.

You’ll surely gain a lot from it!
