It’s appealing for its empowering message about facing social pressure and the importance of being your authentic self.
Sing it at karaoke and you’re sure to let loose and have a great time! It might just be the perfect anthem for anyone ready to take a new step or start loving themselves more.
Mind Your Own BusinessAilee
The girl-crush style of “Mind Your Own Business” is so cool.
It’s included as the title track of her first full album, Vivid, released in 2015.
When you think of Ailee, her outstanding vocal ability is definitely the big draw.
Her confident stage presence and powerful vocals are impressive, and this song lets those strengths shine to the fullest.

Love LightCNBLUE
CNBLUE is a rock band that steadily built their popularity through grassroots activities and training in Japan, such as street performances.
“Love Light” is a track included on their second mini-album, BLUE LOVE, released in 2010.
It’s a romantic mid-tempo number characteristic of Yonghwa, describing a lover as a light more beautiful than the stars.
With a relaxed, gentle melody centered on acoustic guitar, it’s relatively easy to sing aside from the high vocal range.
It also helps create a soothing atmosphere, making it a great pick from a song selection perspective.
Hear The Wind SingGFRIEND
They were a group that raced through the Korean music scene with classic idol looks and songs.
They ended their activities in May 2021, and I’m sure I wasn’t the only fan who felt disappointed, thinking, “They were just getting started…” The name GFRIEND was derived from the words GOOD FRIEND and GIRL FRIEND, reflecting their wish to win support from both men and women.
Their song “Hear The Wind Sing” also carries that quintessential idol-like bittersweetness.
I’d love to hear women who like Japanese idols sing it!
기다리다윤하
Younha, a singer-songwriter known in Japan for songs like “Houki Boshi” and active in both Japan and Korea, delivers a medium-tempo ballad, “While Waiting.” It’s a track from her 2006 Korean debut album, “Audition (Time2Rock).” The lyrics offer comfort when your feelings don’t reach the one you love and the longing hurts.
The steadfast desire to wait even a thousand years further enhances the song’s appeal.
Neither overly subdued nor featuring extreme vocal range, this song is easy to sing in various settings and is recommended both for encouraging friends and for singing together.
Forever YoungBLACKPINK
Forever Young, which captures the swelling emotions of a blossoming romance, is a track included on the 1st mini-album Square Up released in 2018.
It showcases BLACKPINK’s signature, self-assured charm—and the song itself is undeniably cool! The distinctive melody is addictive.
It features a highest chest note of hi B, yet among BLACKPINK’s songs, the overall range is relatively narrow.
That makes it a bit high for men and a bit low for women, so it’s quite approachable to try! Compared to their harder-hitting hip-hop tracks, the melody here is more familiar and easy to sing along to, making it a great choice to get the crowd excited.
