We’ll focus on trending female artists while covering various eras, so use this as a reference when you want to sing something different from your usual lineup!

If you’re unsure what to pick, these are must-sing songs! Recommended tracks by female artists for karaoke (31–40)

Empty Eyesbird

bird – Eye(s) of the Sky
Empty Eyesbird

The fourth single, released in 1999.

It was used as the theme song for Toyota’s “New Celica” commercial.

It’s a very difficult song due to its many words, high key, and wide vocal range, but it’s stylish.

If you haven’t heard it, be sure to check out the video.

Highly recommended.

This is their debut single, released in 2003.

Based on Holst’s “Jupiter,” the song became a long-running hit, having been featured in numerous commercials and TV dramas.

As you’d expect from such a big success, it’s a beautiful and majestic masterpiece.

PassionUA

This was her fourth single, released in 1996, and the signature song that made UA famous.

It peaked at number 18 on the charts.

She does have several songs that ranked higher, but when I hear the name UA, this is the one I want people to sing at karaoke.

Song of PointillismInoue Sonoko

Sonoko Inoue, a female singer-songwriter who enjoys immense popularity especially among young people, can definitely be called a staple female artist for karaoke given the many hit songs she has sung to date.

This song of hers is actually a solo version of “Pointillism Song feat.

Sonoko Inoue,” which was released under the name Mrs.

GREEN APPLE.

The original is a collaboration with Mrs.

GREEN APPLE, but in the solo version she takes it on with a single female vocal.

It’s a collaboration with the hugely popular Mrs.

GREEN APPLE, and it became a big topic online, so its name recognition is more than solid.

As a personSuperfly

Superfly – As a Person (SUPER BEAVER cover) [Music Video] / Included on the cover album “Amazing” (Release: 2025.6.18)

Superfly has many songs with a high vocal range, but this one is a cover of SUPER BEAVER, so the range is set lower than in typical Superfly songs.

If you’re a woman who wants to sing SUPER BEAVER’s “Hito to Shite,” the original might feel too low and make it hard to hit the pitches, so singing the Superfly version could make it easier to match the notes and get a higher score.

Listening through the song, it’s structured to build momentum from the A-melody into the chorus.

The last chorus modulates and goes even higher, but if you sing with energy, it becomes easier to project and stay on pitch, so I recommend riding the rhythm as you sing.

If you're unsure what to sing, these are must-tries! Recommended songs by female artists for karaoke (41–50)

Unchanging ThingsOku Hanako

Okuda Hanako’s classic song “Kawaranai Mono” (“The Unchanging”).

Released in 2006, it’s well known as an insert song for the film The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, and its orthodox J-pop ballad style has garnered support from many listeners.

The song’s vocal range spans mid2 A# to hi C#, which is a very comfortable and relatively narrow range for female singers.

While the final chorus features a solid development, there’s no key change, so you’re unlikely to struggle with vocal height.

In terms of range, pitch movement, and rhythm, it’s an easy song overall—definitely give it a try.

Sweet EmotionAikawa Nanase

Released in 1997 as Nanase Aikawa’s seventh single.

It was featured in a “Hi-Chew” commercial and used as the campaign song for the nationwide commercial radio initiative “Radio New Era,” becoming her third best-selling single.

The song was written and composed by Nanase Aikawa and Tetsurō Oda, and it has a catchy rock vibe.
