Karaoke songs sung by female artists recommended for Gen Z (71–80)

YU-KA – Mermaid (Official Music Video)

Yuka, a singer-songwriter with a distinctive sound influenced by Western music, leaves a strong impression.

Many listeners may feel her musical style has become especially refined recently.

Mermaid is her new song.

Since most of it is sung in falsetto and mixed voice, it might seem challenging, but the actual range is narrow, so it’s surprisingly easy to sing if you set it to the right key.

It’s a mellow track, making it perfect for creating a stylish vibe and lifting the mood.

In Love with the Mirrorraisan

Reisan is a band fronted by Saaya from the comedy duo Lalande.

Their slightly downtempo sound, which incorporates a touch of Black music while staying on trend, has become popular, and although the band is still relatively new, they’ve already churned out multiple hit songs.

Among their tracks, the one I particularly recommend is their new single, “Kagami ni Koishite” (In Love with the Mirror).

While hints of Black music peek through at key moments, the song is fundamentally based on orthodox J-pop, so the vocal line itself is simple.

There aren’t many drastic pitch jumps, so anyone with a basic level of vocal technique should be able to sing it without much difficulty.
