Karaoke songs that make it easy to score 100 points [for women]

With the rise of K-pop in recent years, the difficulty level of Japanese music has risen significantly.

In karaoke scoring—where pitch control is paramount, especially because melodies now tend to jump more drastically—there seem to be far fewer songs with which you can realistically aim for a perfect 100.

So this time, we’ve selected easy-to-sing tracks, focusing on recent releases, that you can target for a 100! We’ve also included concrete technique explanations from a vocal coach, so be sure to read through to the end!

Karaoke Songs That Make It Easy to Score 100 Points [For Women] (31–40)

CHE.R.RYYUI

This is the eighth single by Japanese singer-songwriter YUI, released in March 2007.

Because the A-melody section is a bit low and there are parts sung rather fast, it might be somewhat challenging as material for aiming for a perfect 100 at karaoke.

However, if you can overcome those points, the song itself is very easy to learn and approachable, so I think scoring 100 isn’t just a dream.

Please give it a try.

Someone like you.riria.

Singer-songwriter Riria, who enjoys overwhelming support from young people with her down-to-earth lyrics.

As an artist with a clear, feminine vocal quality, many of her songs feature gentle arrangements that showcase her voice.

Among them, “Anta Nante.” is especially characterized by its calm melody.

While the song gives a sense of height, its overall vocal range isn’t very wide, and the rhythm is relaxed, making it comfortable to sing.

It feels like a classic J-pop acoustic ballad, so the vocal lines should also feel familiar.

pedestrian overpassNogizaka 46

Among the Sakamichi idol groups, Nogizaka46 is known for having an especially large number of catchy songs.

Many young women may count themselves among their fans.

Among Nogizaka46’s tracks, the one I particularly recommend is Hodokyo (Pedestrian Bridge).

It features a distinctly Nogizaka-like, easy-to-sing vocal line, with no complex pitch jumps throughout the song.

It’s mid-tempo with few long sustained notes, so if you’re aiming for a perfect score, definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

Yama’s song “us” doesn’t have many high notes, so there aren’t any parts where you need to belt; overall it’s sung in a whispery style, making it very easy to sing throughout.

The general range is G#3–C#5, and the verses (A-melody to B-melody) are on the lower side, which suits lower voices well.

The chorus does include some higher notes around C5, but if you sing them lightly with a falsetto-like tone rather than belting, it’ll be easier to sing without strain and will fit the song’s atmosphere perfectly.

Try delivering it gently and smoothly!

MIRRORAdo

Ado, a female singer who enjoys tremendous support from young people.

Because she has such strong vocal ability, all of her songs are high difficulty.

Still, since she’s so popular, many of you probably want to aim for a perfect 100 even with Ado’s tracks, right? In that case, we recommend MIRROR.

Among Ado’s songs, this one keeps a relatively restrained vocal line and is composed mainly in the mid to low-mid range throughout.

That said, there are occasional delicate falsetto parts, so be sure to grasp the vocal line thoroughly.

Get OverNEK

Get OverNEK

NEK! is a girls’ band known for their authentic rock sound.

It’s pronounced “Neki.” While many girl bands are indistinguishable from J-pop, they excel at genuine hard rock.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend for easily scoring a perfect 100 is “Get Over.” The melody is gritty hard rock, but the vocal line is exquisitely soft, making it a track where even those not used to rock can achieve a perfect score.

Originally created by Ryoko Moriyama and BEGIN, the song was included on Moriyama’s 1998 album “TIME IS LONELY,” and later released in June 2002 as BEGIN’s 18th single.

However, the version I’m introducing here is Rimi Natsukawa’s cover, released on March 21, 2001 as her third single.

The melody evokes Okinawan folk music, and the sound of the sanshin—an Okinawan traditional instrument—adds an even stronger Okinawan flavor.

As many of you know, Rimi Natsukawa is an exceptionally skilled singer, so some might think, “Can you really score a perfect 100 with a song like this?” But if you listen closely, the vocal melody itself isn’t particularly complex; rhythmically, it’s quite relaxed and simple.

If you study the original carefully and sing it well, you can probably aim for a perfect score.

It might be a slightly advanced pick, but definitely give it a try!
