Upbeat songs recommended for women: Popular Japanese tracks that make people happy when you sing them (1–10)
sabotageRyokushokushakai
As the theme song of the drama “G-senjou no Anata,” it’s very well-known, and there’s no doubt it will get everyone hyped with its fast beat.
Despite the quick rhythm, the lyrics flow at a slower tempo, making it easy to sing, so I think you’ll really enjoy singing it.
Singing is most fun when you’re enjoying yourself, right? This is a perfect song for those moments.
Lil’ InfinityAAA
It’s a medium-tempo ballad that’s easy to clap along to, with a catchy melody that everyone can sing together and get excited about.
It’s filled with gentle, forward-looking words, making it a recommended song that can continue to empower someone even after the excitement fades and they head home.
AM11:00HY
HY’s refreshing and hugely popular song “AM11:00.” The sweet, bittersweet lyrics really capture youthful romance.
If you change the key, even women can sing the male parts more comfortably.
Nail the harmony in the chorus and you’ll get a wonderful blend that will have you and your friends totally hyped!
ROSENEW!HANA
Like a flower that blooms beautifully despite its thorns, this song embodies a determination to live powerfully in any environment.
By accepting past wounds without hiding them and moving forward on one’s own feet, its message of independence and the protagonist’s strong will set listeners’ hearts ablaze.
Released in April 2025, this work is the debut single of HANA, a group formed from the audition program “No No Girls,” led by Chanmina and SKY-HI.
At the end of the same year, they won the Best New Artist Award at the 67th Japan Record Awards.
The commanding rap and rich choral layers create vocal work that will send your energy soaring the moment you grab the mic at karaoke! If everyone belts out the chorus together, it’s guaranteed to take the excitement to the next level.
So, you are not alone.Little Glee Monster
Karaoke is all about having a lively time with friends, right? I recommend the song “Dakara, Hitori Janai” by Little Glee Monster.
It’s a lot of fun because you can split the parts and sing with your friends! For the chorus, you can sing in unison or add harmonies—either way, use this song to feel that sense of unity with your friends!
Whimsical Romanticikimonogakari
Many songs by Ikimonogakari are uplifting, and this is one I especially recommend.
A staple at live shows that always energizes the crowd, it’s a bright and very positive love song.
Its irresistibly catchy phrases will have you humming along.
I want to make you say you love me.IZ*ONE
Instead of just two microphones at karaoke, the top recommendation is to borrow enough mics for everyone and sing together.
Is that too much to ask…? That’s how much this is a song you want everyone to belt out and get hyped to.
Get together with your favorite friends, eat something tasty, share a fun time, and chat excitedly about the boys you like—For all that, “Suki to Iwasetai” is my pick!
