[Karaoke] Famous Western songs everyone knows! Easy-to-sing foreign tracks (21–30)
Christmas EveIdina Menzel
This song is included on a Christmas holiday album released in 2014.
In Japan, the same album was also released under the title “Snow Wishes,” and the song appears there as well.
Since it shares the same melody as Tatsuro Yamashita’s “Christmas Eve,” it’s very easy to listen to.
If you want a stylish English version, Idina Menzel’s rendition might be a good choice.
That said, the song builds steadily toward the latter half, so there are several spots where you’ll need to hit higher notes.
The ending phrases have very cool melodic lines, so men can lower the key and still deliver it well.
Overall, rather than enunciating crisply throughout, it’s better to sing with awareness of accents at the beginning and in certain parts.
HEY JUDEThe Beatles
The Beatles have so many great songs that their popularity is probably spread out even in karaoke.
But if I had to pick just one, I think Hey Jude is the best.
As the final song in a karaoke session, singing it to close things out would make for an amazing climax.
Time After TimeCyndi Lauper
If we go back to the iconic female rock artist just before Avril Lavigne, that would be Cyndi Lauper.
She’s an everlasting female star, and her cute vibe was hugely popular in Japan.
If you sing this song at karaoke, it will surely liven up the place.
The Lazy SongBruno Mars
“I don’t want to do anything today!” We all have days like that, right? This song is the ultimate anthem for lazy days that speaks for that exact feeling.
And the one singing it is Bruno Mars! Unlike his powerful tracks, this one has a laid-back reggae vibe, with hardly any demanding high notes or vibrato.
Just humming along casually somehow makes it sound good.
Released in February 2011, it’s also included on his debut album, Doo-Wops & Hooligans.
Give it a try when you want to relax and enjoy karaoke!
PerfectEd Sheeran
Ed Sheeran is a singer-songwriter beloved around the world.
Among his songs, this one shines with a particularly romantic glow.
It’s a personal love song he dedicated to his wife, and its simple, unadorned words convey pure feelings that are truly moving.
Reflecting on memories from their younger days, the lyrics warmly tell the listener that the partner is perfect just as they are.
Released as a single from the 2017 album ÷, the song went on to achieve global success, with a version featuring Beyoncé reaching number one on the U.S.
charts.
As a sweeping ballad, it’s perfect for singing with heartfelt emotion at karaoke and will beautifully enhance celebratory occasions like wedding after-parties.
Good Morning BaltimoreNikki Blonsky
The film Hairspray was released in 2007.
The song Good Morning Baltimore appears in the movie and is sung by the heroine, Nikki Blonsky.
Since it’s a musical-style number, it doesn’t feature the kind of complex vocal lines you hear in modern pop.
The vocal range is from mid2 B-flat to high C, so most women should be able to sing it in the original key.
However, because it often shifts directly from regular singing to a more speech-like delivery, it can be hard to score high at karaoke unless you have a good grasp of English intonation.
TOP OF THE WORLDCarpenters
The Carpenters are the pinnacle of female pop groups, offering wonderful melodies.
There are surely people who feel that as long as this song exists, they don’t need any other Western or Japanese music.
With its perfect melody, it’s also one of the most famous songs for karaoke.
