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.

Aimer’s “Eclipse” has lots of breathy elements and isn’t a song where you belt, so I think it’s relatively easy to sing! Like the other artists I’ve introduced so far, Aimer is also an artist whose low register is really captivating.

Compared to her signature song “Zankyosanka,” this one has fewer high notes, making the pitch easier to catch, and the song’s structure builds up gradually rather than suddenly jumping high.

The rhythm doesn’t have any particularly difficult parts either, so if you want to sing something gently and tenderly, how about “Eclipse”? Try singing softly without straining your throat!

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!

Revolutionary Journey – On the WayAina ji Endo

Revolutionary Journey - On the WayAina ji Endo

Since Aina the End is famous for her husky voice, I imagine some low-voiced women have included her songs in their repertoire.

“Kakumei Dōchū – On The Way” has great tempo and is a really cool track! There’s a call-and-response section in the A-melody, and it seems like it would be a blast at karaoke—perfect for getting the crowd going—so I’d love for low-voiced women to try singing it! The chorus mainly sits on higher notes, reaching up to C5, but sing boldly without fear—project your voice as if you’re sending it far, and add some drive.

If you can get through this part, you’ll definitely level up!

This is a poignant, ballad-style song that captures the feeling of carefully nurturing a small glimmer of hope.

It delicately portrays deep emotions and inner conflict toward a loved one, as well as the warm light felt within that relationship.

milet’s expressive artistry and translucent vocals gently resonate with listeners.

Chosen as the theme song for TBS’s Sunday drama “Anti-Hero,” this track showcases the unique expressive power that only milet—who has produced numerous acclaimed works including the album “eyes”—can deliver.

Its melody beautifully conveys subtle emotional shifts, making it a perfect fit for singers with a powerful voice.

Perform it at karaoke, and you’re sure to turn heads!

MOTHERPUFFY

This is Puffy’s fifth single, released in December 1997.

The lyrics and composition are by Tamio Okuda, who also produced the track.

For Puffy, rather than showcasing the kind of “appeal of low tones” suggested by this theme, it’s better described as a song that doesn’t require high notes—making it a good pick for women who aren’t comfortable with high pitches to sing at karaoke.

It also doesn’t demand advanced vocal technique, which makes it a good choice for the general public to sing and enjoy.

If you aim for a relaxed, unforced delivery, it will sound more “authentic.”

Her song “FREAK” is a new track released in August 2024.

In contrast to its cute music video, the melody of this piece is largely put together with a downer vibe.

The vocal line follows suit, creating a similarly moody atmosphere, so it naturally centers on a lower register.

Overall, the track has a vibe reminiscent of Billie Eilish’s music, making it a great recommendation for women who want to make use of a laid-back feel and their lower vocal tones.

ReceiptVIDA Hollywood

ReceiptVIDA Hollywood

VIDA Hollywood is a four-member music group.

As you’d expect from a unit formed by members who graduated from American music schools, their style is sophisticated and close to Western pop.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is “Receipt.” It has an R&B flavor; while there are a few high notes that verge on falsetto, the song overall sits in the low-to-mid to mid vocal range, so even women with lower voices can sing it with ease.
