Singer-songwriter miwa made her major debut in 2010 with her first single, “don’t cry anymore.” Her song “Hikari e” is a pop tune with a catchy melody that’s easy to sing at karaoke.

However, there’s a brief high note in the chorus, so if that part feels tough, you might want to lower the overall key.
