Aim for a high score! A collection of easy-to-sing karaoke songs recommended for high school students

When karaoke has a scoring feature, you can’t help wanting to go for a high score, right?

I’m sure many of you enjoy competing for high scores with your friends.

This time, for high school students who love karaoke, I’ve selected some songs that seem relatively easy to sing and good for aiming at high scores.

The key to getting a high score at karaoke is, above all else, to memorize the melody and rhythm (note values) accurately!

If you want to aim for a high score, listen closely to the guide melody, memorize it, and then try singing.

If you’re thinking, “There’s no way I can memorize all that,” one trick might be to turn up the guide melody volume so it’s easier to hear while you sing.

Some of the individual song introduction articles also include advice specifically for getting high scores, so be sure to use this article as a reference and get a leg up on your friends!

Aim for a high score! Recommended karaoke songs for high school students — Easy-to-sing picks (71–80)

A piano-pop band Official HIGE DANDism’s song released in July 2020.

The vocalist Satoshi Fujihara has remarkable singing ability; his clear, soaring high notes are especially noteworthy.

Because of that, there may not be many people who can sing it in the original key, so be careful with the key settings when you sing it at karaoke.

The melody itself is very catchy and easy to remember, so as long as you don’t make a mistake with the key, aiming for a high score at karaoke should be realistic.

Give it a try and good luck!

This is Official HIGE DANDism’s ninth digital single, released in January 2023.

It was written as the opening theme for the TV anime Tokyo Revengers: Christmas Showdown Arc.

With its comfortable, lively medium-to-up-tempo groove, it’s a pop song that should be easy for anyone to get into.

Compared to many of HIGE DAN’s songs, which often feature intricate melodies, the vocal line here is relatively simple—another reason it’s a great choice if you’re aiming for a high score at karaoke.

Since there are lots of high notes in the latter half of the song, if you’re not confident with high tones, try lowering the key when you sing.

Aimer’s 13th single, released in October 2017.

I bet many of you thought, “Huh? Is this a song you can actually score high on?” It’s true that because of Aimer’s distinctive singing style, a lot of people might think at first listen, “This sounds hard!!” But if you don’t get distracted by that and really listen to the original, you’ll notice the vocal range used isn’t actually that wide.

So if you memorize the melody well and can trace it accurately, getting a high score shouldn’t be that difficult.

That said, there’s a risk the song could end up sounding dull if that’s all you focus on.

In that sense, it may be a good example of how a so-called “textbook” high score doesn’t necessarily make it a “good performance.” After you try singing it once and manage a high score, I think it’s great to enjoy it in your own style and interpretation!

greatest common divisorRADWIMPS

Among RADWIMPS’ songs, this one doesn’t sit too high in range, so you don’t need to belt.

As long as you stay mindful of the rhythmic timing, you can aim for a high score! In particular, the A verse stays mostly in the mid–low (mid1) range, so it’s good to sing gently, as if speaking.

The range gradually rises from the B verse, but there’s no need to push your voice.

If you keep the breath flowing and imagine resonating in the head, your head voice will take on a chesty quality, and once you find your comfortable spot, it becomes much easier to sing.

Also, some may find the rhythm tricky where the melody gets fast, but since the range isn’t too high, you’ll be fine if you place the notes carefully and sing with precision.

As the pitch climbs, imagine resonating in the head and try keeping it light!

Contrary to what you might expect, Kakurenbo actually has a fairly narrow vocal range; it’s sung gently between E3 and F#4.

It’s popular across generations, and many of my students chose to sing it! Since it’s a song where it’s easy to add dynamics, it should be relatively straightforward to pick up extra points for expressiveness.

In the A verse, keep the volume restrained and gentle; in the B verse, some higher notes appear, so focus on the rhythm and make sure to hit the pitch bar accurately.

The C section in the latter half is where the most emotion comes through, so it’s okay to sing with more volume than you think.

A surprisingly tricky part is the quiet section of the final chorus.

After the big build-up in the C section, the chorus enters with restrained emotion, so if you reset your feelings right before the chorus and create a clear break, you’ll be able to sing more calmly and stay on pitch more easily.

If I could become a constellationkessoku bando

Kessoku Band’s most famous song, “If We Could Become a Constellation.” The melody isn’t difficult and the rhythm is calm, so many of my vocal training students chose to sing it.

Actually, JOYSOUND staff are doing something called the “95-Point Challenge” with this song, so with practice you might be able to boost your score quite a bit! The overall vocal range is G3–C#5.

The chorus hits C5 repeatedly, so some people might feel it’s “high,” but the melody has momentum, so if you focus on accents, you’ll be fine! First, listen carefully to identify which parts are the high notes.

Take the spots where you think, “Maybe here?” and turn them into accents by riding the rhythm with some drive.

The key point is to project your voice forward! Start with sectional practice so you can produce sound comfortably, and do your best!

It’s a song released on September 3, 2025, and it was apparently created as an homage to Inori Minase’s own song “Yume no Tsubomi.” Overall, it’s bright and slightly high-pitched, so it’s an easy pick for those who are good with higher notes.

If high notes aren’t your strong point, it’s totally fine to lower the key by about two steps.

The melody is fairly simple, so you should be able to learn it quickly! For the high parts, if you just belt with a loud voice, you’ll strain your throat, so raise your tone above your normal speaking voice and use a bright voice as your base.

When you focus on that voice, your eyebrows and facial muscles will naturally lift—do you feel that? Try keeping that expression and projecting your voice far into the distance! If the sound comes out cleanly without catching in your throat, you’re doing it right.

It’ll also make it easier to stay on pitch, so give it a try!
