Recommended picks for karaoke! Easy-to-sing songs recommended for Gen Z

In the Reiwa era, J-pop songs have continued to evolve.

Beyond the sound and ensemble, the number of highly skilled vocalists has grown, so there are quite a few songs that sound easy but are actually difficult to sing.

Because of that, some of you may want to sing popular songs but find them too hard to pull off.

So this time, we’ve picked out easy-to-sing tracks released roughly between 2011 and 2024—the years that Gen Z likely spent their youth.

They’re recommended even for those who aren’t confident singers, so be sure to check them out!
