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! A roundup of karaoke songs that are easy for high schoolers to sing (21–30)
Marigoldaimyon
Aimer’s fifth major single, released on August 8, 2018.
It’s a mid-tempo song built on a very straightforward melody, making it an ideal choice when you want to aim for a high score at karaoke.
Because the melody is simple, there’s a high risk of it sounding monotonous if you sing it like a hum, so when you perform it, be sure to feel the backbeat accents on beats 2 and 4 in the track to keep the rhythm from becoming flat.
I can’t learn to like myself.Sakurazaka46
Among the Sakamichi groups, Keyakizaka46 is especially known for their stylish musicality.
While the group has many difficult songs, there are some that are easy to sing.
One I particularly recommend is “I Can’t Learn to Love Myself.” The melody is very catchy, and the vocal line doesn’t involve complex ups and downs in pitch.
The vocal range is fairly standard, so it doesn’t depend on the singer’s voice type, making it a song with strong potential for high scores.
Be sure to check it out.
dogwood (flowering dogwood)Hitoto Yo
Yo Hitoto’s “Hanamizuki” is famous as one of the most-sung karaoke songs of the Heisei era.
It’s a classic, so it can get the crowd going no matter who you go to karaoke with.
The tempo is slow, making it easy to check each pitch as you sing.
The rhythm isn’t very complex either, so even if you’re not confident in your sense of rhythm, it’s easy to give it a try.
If you’re aiming for a high score, focus on sustained notes and vibrato.
Family SongHoshino Gen
Gen Hoshino’s songs are generally easy to sing, and above all, many of them have been used in TV commercials, dramas, and movie theme songs, so they’re very well-known and not too hard to memorize.
Some tracks feature falsetto as a key element or have fast rhythms, but the songs themselves are poppy, easy to remember, and good for practice.
Family Song, in particular, has a relaxed rhythm that’s easy to sync with.
The falsetto in the chorus is a bit high, but if you just practice when to switch into falsetto, it’s a song you can aim for a high score with!
moonlightAimer
Aimer is a female singer-songwriter who has gained popularity for her emotional vocals born from her unique vocal timbre.
I think many people across generations love her songs.
Among Aimer’s tracks, the one I especially recommend is Tsukikage.
This piece, arranged as an orthodox J-POP ballad, features a vocal line with gentle rises and falls throughout.
There are no demanding falsetto parts either, making it a must-hear for those aiming for a high score.
IMA IMA IMAPerfume
The new single “IMA IMA IMA” by the popular dance-vocal unit Perfume.
In recent years, in addition to their signature techno style, Perfume has been exploring genres like synth-pop and synthwave, and this track falls into the latter category.
Since the track’s presence is stronger than the vocal line, it may not feel particularly satisfying from a singing standpoint, but it’s highly recommended for those who simply want to aim for a high score.
Be sure to add it to your repertoire.
Don’t cheat on me.Koresawa
Koresawa is a female singer-songwriter who’s popular for her catchy, emotionally resonant lyrics.
She’s hugely supported by young listeners, but she’s actually been active for quite a while, so she’s also well-liked by people in their 30s.
Among her songs, a standout recommendation is “Uwaki Shitara Akan de” (“Don’t You Dare Cheat”).
Although many of Koresawa’s tracks feature lots of high notes, this one keeps challenging elements like falsetto to a minimum.
The vocal lines are catchy throughout, so be sure to give it a listen.
