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)
Voice of the Seaurashima tarou
This song became a hot topic in au’s commercials and has become a real karaoke staple because it’s easy to sing.
The vocalist is Urashima Taro, played by Kenta Kiritani.
It’s a gentle, love-filled track with the charm of an unpretentious, down-to-earth singing voice.
The chorus might seem high, but once you try it, you’ll find it surprisingly easy to sing—that’s one of this song’s hallmarks.
Plus, the tempo is slow, so you can check each pitch and rhythm as you sing.
himawariMr.Children
Mr.Children’s 37th single, released in July 2017.
Many of you probably know it as the theme song for the film “Let Me Eat Your Pancreas.” Sakurai’s passionate vocals are alive and well in this track too! The key to singing this song at karaoke? Don’t try to sing it “perfectly”! Of course, if you want a high score, you need to learn the melody and rhythm faithfully to the original—but no worries there! True to Sakurai, who has written and composed countless Mr.Children hits, this song also delivers an impeccably crafted, memorable melody that’s easy to pick up.
So you shouldn’t stumble on that part.
What matters is how much of the original’s “heat” you can reproduce! Aim not only for a high score with a performance as fiery as the man himself, but also to move everyone in the room.
No tricks needed for this song!
Say it.Yorushika
I’m sure there are many high school students who want to sing songs by Yorushika, a band popular among teens and people in their twenties.
However, the vocalist suis has an exceptionally high-level voice as a singer—clear, translucent tone and beautiful falsetto—so it’s fine if you’ve had proper lessons, but as a high school student you might find it hard to sing well.
That said, the song “Itte” is one of Yorushika’s easier songs to sing.
There’s no falsetto section and the key isn’t high, so with practice, anyone can sing it well!
Thank youikimonogakari
When it comes to Ikimonogakari’s classic ballads, “Arigatou” is the one that comes to mind.
Since the tempo of this song is slow, even those who find it hard to stay on pitch can sing while checking each note carefully.
The rhythm is simple too, so try singing it slowly while confirming as you go.
If you’re aiming for a high score, focusing on long tones and vibrato will make it easier to boost your points.
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.
