Cool songs that are recommended for women to sing (21–30)

The Vocaloid song “Charles” has become very popular thanks to covers by many singers and artists—are you familiar with it? I always sing it in the original key, but it’s quite difficult! The range is C#3 to C#5, and it’s very high overall, but I especially find the parts in the chorus where the melody jumps up and down to be challenging.

There are also spots near the beginning of the A section where the notes rise.

For those sections, it feels good to produce the sound if you visualize the pitch you want and “hit the target” with your voice like shooting an arrow.

Also, the rhythm in the B section tends to rush, so try to keep the tempo by singing each note carefully.

Most Vocaloid songs are high, but if you’re confident in your high notes, you might be able to sing “Charles” in the original key—so give it a try!

Rei, who combines exceptional skill as a guitarist with talent as a singer-songwriter, is carving out a unique place for herself.

Released in August 2024, “Heaven” is a brand-new killer tune where blistering, freewheeling guitar work—complete with tapping—coexists in perfect balance with an earworm of a catchy melody and a danceable groove.

When singing it at karaoke and the like, don’t rely on the sense of the chords; instead, listen closely to the bass and drum rhythms, and try singing with a different image in mind than the typical J-pop-style division between vocals and accompaniment.

LuluAdo

When it comes to young artists with outstanding vocal ability, Ado is likely the first to come to mind.

Among her songs, the one I especially recommend to women as a particularly challenging piece is LULU.

This track features Ado’s signature shouts throughout.

While this shouting technique can be difficult even for men, it is especially demanding for women.

Simply delivering clear, powerful shouts while maintaining volume is evidence of high-level vocal skill.

Ano Yume wo Nazotte has a very wide vocal range.

It’s written in a range from D#3 to E5, with the low notes extending more than in other YOASOBI songs.

Speaking of YOASOBI, you probably think of especially high choruses! They’re a perfect fit for this theme.

The A melody stays in the low range, but even there, keep your throat open and let your breath flow.

Making a surprised face helps open the throat—try to maintain that state as you head into the chorus.

In the chorus, you’ll encounter long sustained notes, so engage your lower abdomen to keep your body steady and send your voice straight out with confidence.

That way, your breath will flow well and you can sing smoothly without your voice catching.

Give it lots of tries!

Fu re te Fu re ruTK from RIN TO SHITE SIGURE

The B-side to “unravel,” which could be called TK’s signature song, is actually “Fu re te Fu re ru.” It explodes even more with high notes and falsetto than “unravel,” and it’s one of my absolute favorites to sing at karaoke.

Rather than a clean falsetto, TK’s falsetto pierces like a cry, so unless you can normally hit high notes, it’s a tough song to pull off… That said, it’s a super cool track, so if you think of it as a way to practice falsetto, I definitely recommend it for rock lovers! It’s fine to start with a weak falsetto.

Just keep practicing using a lot of breath over and over, and gradually build your explosiveness—that’s the idea!
