Dry Flower, sung by Yuuri, a popular artist right now.

That slightly husky, textured voice feels so pleasant, doesn’t it? The lyrics, which link a faded dried flower with an ex-boyfriend, express the feelings of a woman who can’t quite shake the clouds away.

It might be hard to mimic Yuuri’s voice, but if you focus on the rhythm and especially the falsetto parts in the chorus, I think you can really make this song your own.

Give it a try!

Hide-and-seekYuuri

Hide-and-seekYuuri

This is one of Yuuri’s signature songs and the track that triggered his big breakthrough.

Many listeners were deeply moved by the lyrics depicting a bittersweet breakup between a man and a woman.

It’s also a great choice for men who aren’t confident singers.

The melody sits relatively low, doesn’t span a wide range, and has minimal pitch movement, making it easier to sing.

That said, Yuuri himself switches skillfully between chest voice and falsetto to vividly convey the poignant story in the lyrics.

In other words, this song is easy for beginners to sing, yet can be explored in depth if you aim to express the lyrical world, making it a recommended piece for everyone from beginners to advanced singers.

Raon is a singer from South Korea.

Although she’s a Korean artist, she has released many songs in Japanese, making her popular in the J-pop scene as well.

Among Raon’s tracks, the one I especially recommend is “Ame Otome” (Rain Maiden).

It exudes a dark atmosphere.

The entire song is sung using a whisper voice from start to finish.

This whisper vocal style is easy to produce even for those who aren’t confident singers, and it tends to sound good without requiring special techniques.

Try singing it without forcing your voice—comfortably, and with a dark tone.

The rock band Cody・Lee (李)—pronounced “Cody Lee”—known for their distinctive musicality, has been attracting attention.

While they’re categorized as a rock band, their wide-ranging musical sensibilities make their style hard to pin down to any single genre.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend for people who aren’t confident in their singing is Kimi no Kareshi ni Naritai (“I Want to Be Your Boyfriend”).

This track has a very narrow vocal range, and the vocal line is notably simple.

It’s easy for anyone to sing, so give it a try.

KANA-BOON is a rock band that has remained at the forefront of the scene for many years, working on anime theme songs and more.

Recently, their sound has grown more delicate, featuring a style reminiscent of early Unicorn.

Their new song, “Horarara,” showcases that soft musicality evocative of the early-2000s Japanese rock scene.

The vocal range is about average, and the melody line is extremely simple, so as long as the key suits you, anyone can sing it without trouble.

Carrying YouInoue Azumi

It’s “Carrying You,” well known from Studio Ghibli’s film Castle in the Sky! This song is sometimes chosen as a piece for choir competitions, too.

Among middle schoolers, almost everyone knows it, right? Some people aren’t confident in singing because they don’t know how to sing like in typical J-pop, and their singing ends up sounding choral.

If that’s you, try choosing a song where that choir-like quality becomes your strength—you’ll be able to sing it perfectly! It’s your unique voice, so pick songs that showcase your best qualities and break out of your shell!

Recently, there’s been a revival boom, with the musical styles and fashion of the 1970s and 1980s becoming trendy.

“Candy,” sung by Naoko Majima, is a perfect fit for this revival boom.

Its melody, inspired by 1980s city pop, is particularly striking, and a nostalgic atmosphere permeates the entire track.

Unlike many contemporary songs, the lyrics have fewer words, allowing the vocals to be delivered with more breathing room.

For these reasons, it can be considered a very easy song to sing, even for those who aren’t confident singers.
