No worries if you're tone-deaf! Easy-to-sing J-pop songs for karaoke
Recently, with the K-pop boom, the difficulty level of Japanese music has risen sharply compared to before.
Songs that use whisper voice and mixed voice have become standard, and on top of that, advanced vocal techniques like riffs/ad-libs and hiccups are now being demanded.
In this situation, it can be quite difficult for people who aren’t confident singers to find songs that suit them and are easy to sing.
So this time, we’ve picked out tracks that even those who lack confidence in their singing or consider themselves tone-deaf can handle! Of course, we chose them with karaoke crowd-pleasing in mind, so please consider adding them to your repertoire!
