Cool songs recommended for women to sing (41–50)
A world where the sun does not riseAimer
This song, which is also the theme for “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – Infinity Castle Arc: Chapter 1 Akaza’s Return,” spans roughly E3 to E5 and is quite advanced to sing on a first try.
When I first heard it, Aimer’s English-like diction made me think, “Is this a Western song?” but it’s firmly in Japanese (lol).
The A section is sung phrase by phrase in the lower register, but from around the B section it gradually becomes more emotional.
There are plenty of high notes, but rather than belting them in chest voice, using a strong head voice brings out both the poignancy and the power, matching the song’s mood.
From low to high notes, try singing with your eyebrows slightly raised to help stabilize pitch!
to clear up (weather)Yorushika
This is Yorushika’s 17th digital-only single, released in January 2024.
It was selected as the opening theme for the anime Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End, which airs on the Nippon TV network.
The most important point for singing this song well is how effectively you can express dynamic contrast between the chorus and the other sections.
To put it simply: aim for a firm, powerful delivery in the chorus, and in the other parts, keep the tone soft yet never weak or feeble.
It’s quite challenging to execute in practice, but if you pull it off, you’re sure to draw admiration from those around you.
In the final a cappella section, sing with even greater care and dynamic control.
CinderellaTomei
We’re in an era where talented musicians born in the 2000s are leading the scene, and TOMEI—born in 2003 and discovered by director Makoto Shinkai and RADWIMPS—is certainly one of them.
The song we’re introducing here, “Haikaburi,” is her debut track, produced by RADWIMPS’ Yojiro Noda and released in July 2023.
Written and composed by TOMEI herself, it fully showcases her gifts as a singer-songwriter.
“Haikaburi” carries a dark pop vibe reminiscent of Billie Eilish, and its word choice stands out, resulting in a track that highlights her individuality.
Once you grasp the song’s atmosphere and get past the recurring falsetto parts, even those who aren’t completely confident in their vocal skills should be able to sing it well.
The chorus is surprisingly easy to sing, too, so I’d encourage anyone looking to try a song with a different feel than usual to give it a shot.
Become a flowerRyokushokushakai
This is Ryokuoushoku Shakai’s eighth single, released in December 2023.
It was written as the opening theme for the Nippon TV anime “The Apothecary Diaries,” with the concept of “a flower blooming in the shade.” It’s a pretty cool, uptempo, and stylish track, isn’t it? The song is packed with tension, featuring a melody that jumps dramatically up and down and a slightly complex rhythmic arrangement toward the end of the chorus, making it quite challenging to sing.
Precisely because of that, it’s a great piece for confident female vocalists to take on.
Sing it with cool poise and grab everyone’s attention!

English songs are, after all, cool if you can sing them!
Up to this point, I’ve been introducing cool songs by Japanese artists that are great to sing, but for the finale, it’s Western music! It’s undeniably cool when you can pull off songs in English. Of course, many people don’t speak English, but if you keep listening to the songs, you’ll be able to sing with good pronunciation—so definitely give it a try. Compared to Japanese songs, memorizing the lyrics can be tougher, but that makes it all the more moving when you finally manage to sing them. Practice a lot, and sing with confidence.

What Makes You BeautifulOne Direction
This song is characterized by a catchy melody and a refreshing sound.
It’s a hymn of praise for people who haven’t yet recognized their own appeal, carrying the message that unconscious beauty is the truest kind of charm.
Released as One Direction’s debut single in September 2011, it topped the UK charts and became a massive hit in the United States, laying the groundwork for their global popularity.
The track was also featured on the TV show iCarly and in the film Tad, The Lost Explorer.
It’s a perfect pick when you’re lacking confidence or want to encourage someone you care about.
