Female vocal songs where women with low voices can shine
In Japan, where a high voice is often considered “good,” the reason originally lies in the country’s agrarian roots.
To communicate by voice with farmers working at a distance, a higher, more intelligible pitch was more convenient; thus, in Japan and other agrarian Asian societies, people with higher voices have traditionally been preferred.
However, when it comes to singing, higher is not always better!
In fact, lower voices have overwhelming advantages in overtones and resonance.
So this time, we’ve picked out songs that bring out the maximum charm of women with lower voices!
Of course, we also selected them with karaoke appeal in mind, so if you’re a woman with a drinking party or group date coming up, this is a must-see.

Female vocal songs where lower-voiced women can shine (71–80)
Monster IslandSuiyōbi no Campanella
This song, which is the theme for the TV anime “Chibi Godzilla no Gyakushū,” is a very upbeat track, just like you’d expect from Wednesday Campanella! It could be a hit at karaoke—fun for everyone and likely to go over well! When singing, keep a solid sense of rhythm throughout.
For the A melody, think more in terms of spoken lines and call-and-response rather than singing.
From the B melody, the singing element kicks in and the song takes on a cool vibe! The range is narrow, and it’s a track you’ll want to hear in the alluring lower register of a female vocalist.
Definitely consider adding it to your repertoire!
Oneway GenerationHonda Minako
Minako Honda, who made a dazzling transformation from idol singer to musical theater star.
Since her debut in 1985, she shone on the idol scene while also taking on classical music and musicals, showcasing activities that transcended genres.
She successfully held her first concert at the Nippon Budokan and, in 1988, formed the female rock band MINAKO with WILD CATS.
In her debut year, she won the Japan Record Awards’ Best New Artist, earning high acclaim for her talent.
Chosen from 12,000 candidates to play Kim in the musical Miss Saigon, she captivated audiences with her outstanding vocal ability and expressive power.
As a songstress who combines a powerful voice with graceful poise, she is highly recommended for those seeking music of the highest quality.
Dance with That Girl feat. chelmicoMEGA SHINNOSUKE
Singer-songwriter Mega Shinnosuke is known for his languid, stylish melodies and has earned high praise from dedicated music fans.
His track with the popular female rap duo chelmico is this one, “Mega Shinnosuke.” It’s a piece with a distinctly laid-back vibe.
The song stays within a narrow vocal range.
Mega Shinnosuke’s verse isn’t too low, so while it’s primarily a male-led track, women with lower registers should be able to sing it without issue.
A Good Day to Set Out on a JourneyYamaguchi Momoe
Momoe Yamaguchi’s 24th single, released in November 1978.
It was used as the theme song for a travel campaign by the then Japan National Railways (now JR).
The lyricist and composer was Shinji Tanimura, who at the time was at the height of his popularity with the band Alice.
Speaking of Momoe Yamaguchi, she was a singer known for the appeal of her calm, low-register voice, and that charm is fully on display in this song as well.
Not just for this song, but in general it’s an ideal choice for low-voiced women as a karaoke piece.
Even at the highest note in the chorus, it’s likely a pitch most women can hit easily, even if they’re not comfortable with high notes, so if you aim to deliver it as a gently expressive, understated performance overall, it will surely turn into something that sounds really lovely.
Flower of loveaimyon
This is Aimyon’s 14th single, released in June 2023.
The song features a laid-back, medium-tempo feel that really highlights Aimyon’s slightly husky vocals.
For a female vocal piece, it uses relatively low notes, especially in the A-melody sections, so it could be a great fit for lower-voiced women to fully showcase their vocal charm.
Be careful in the low register: if the sound vibrates directly in the throat, the resonance won’t be beautiful, so practice to sing solidly with chest voice.
There are also many sections in the chorus and elsewhere that require mixed voice to falsetto, so it might be a slightly advanced choice—but it’s definitely a song I’d encourage lower-voiced women to take on.
Until (I/you/it) can hearmiyuna
Miyuna is a female singer-songwriter gaining attention in pop music influenced by Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson.
She’s an artist with a strong R&B flavor.
Among her songs, the one I especially recommend for low-voice women is Kikoe ru made.
The beginning has an R&B vibe, while the chorus has a distinctly J-pop finish.
Although it doesn’t have a particularly narrow vocal range, the track emphasizes the lower register, making it an excellent match for women with lower voices.
usyama
Yama’s song “us” doesn’t have many high notes, so there aren’t any parts where you need to belt; overall it’s sung in a whispery style, making it very easy to sing throughout.
The general range is G#3–C#5, and the verses (A-melody to B-melody) are on the lower side, which suits lower voices well.
The chorus does include some higher notes around C5, but if you sing them lightly with a falsetto-like tone rather than belting, it’ll be easier to sing without strain and will fit the song’s atmosphere perfectly.
Try delivering it gently and smoothly!
