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)
Moon on pampas grassShiina Ringo
Ringo Sheena’s “Miscanthus and the Moon” is actually a cover—the original song is “Gypsy” by the three-piece band Appa! The rock piano is super cool, and you can listen on YouTube, so definitely check out both versions! Like the original, Ringo Sheena’s version also has a very wide vocal range, from A2 to D5, so it might be fun for two people to split the low and high parts and sing together! Also, the low notes in the C section are quite challenging for an average female voice… This is your moment, dear reader! Give it a try and memorize it!
I hate this love songchanmina
In most of Chanmina’s songs, her wonderful low voice really stands out! Listening to “I hate this love song,” there are almost no high notes; the overall range is A3–C#5.
There’s a brief high note in the chorus, but given the song’s vibe, using falsetto is perfectly fine.
Also, can you hear that finger-snapping sound in the backing track? It plays a very important role in the rhythm of the song, so when you sing, try to lock into the rhythm by listening closely to those snaps! Chanmina has a lot of rap-heavy tracks, but this one doesn’t have bold rap sections, so it’s easier to learn as a song.
Highly recommended!
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!

loveUru
A digital-only single by female singer-songwriter Uru, released in January 2023.
It’s a track where you can fully savor the charm of Uru’s beautifully mellow voice rich in lower overtones.
I think it’s a wonderful song, produced to showcase the depth and allure of her vocals to the fullest.
The chorus and other sections require the use of mixed voice and falsetto, but if you can handle those parts, it will be an ideal choice for lower-voiced women to sing and highlight the appeal of their own voices.
Since the song is calm and gentle overall, try to sing with care so that your breath control—like the nuance of your breathing and the speed of your exhalation—doesn’t become rough.
A Naked Heartaimyon
This is Aimyon’s 10th major single, released in June 2020.
It was also used as the theme song for the TBS Tuesday drama “My Housekeeper Nagisa-san.” Given that Aimyon’s songs feature her charmingly simple, conversational vocal style, there are hardly any parts that demand extreme high notes.
So even those who struggle with high pitches will likely find it relatively easy to sing.
Choosing a key that feels comfortable is fine, but right before the chorus, where the chest voice goes a bit higher, I think pushing a little and belting it out will make it sound even better.
Even if you don’t quite hit every note, it’s perfectly fine to just go for it!
escalateAimer
Aimer is a singer-songwriter who debuted in 2011.
She’s also known for contributing many theme songs for films, TV dramas, and anime.
In particular, Zankyo Sanka, the opening theme for Demon Slayer: Entertainment District Arc, topped numerous music charts.
One of her charms is how dramatically her style changes from song to song—sometimes delivering intense tracks, other times tender ballads.
Be sure to listen to several of her songs and enjoy the contrast.
HeavenRei
Right now, the female artist drawing the most attention from critics and hardcore music fans is Rei.
She’s a guitarist and singer-songwriter whose long years abroad give her a complex musicality not often found in Japanese pop.
Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is Heaven.
It features a downer-tinged melody and is sung within a narrow vocal range throughout.
Because vocal thickness—such as rich overtones—is crucial, it’s a track where women with lower voices can really play to their strengths.
