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 women with low voices can shine (111–120)
bergamotTomonari Sora
Sora Tomonari is known for an enchanting, fantasy-like musical style.
While he’s often associated with a distinctly Japanese-inspired, ethereal sound, he also has smoother tracks.
One of them is Bergamot.
It features a somewhat city pop-like finish, delivering an adult, smooth feel throughout.
Among Tomonari’s works, this song has a particularly narrow vocal range, so as long as you set an appropriate key, it won’t be too low.
Consider adding it to your repertoire.

I’m crazy about youUtada Hikaru
This is a song by Hikaru Utada wrapped in a sweet, sensual atmosphere.
It vividly portrays the aching pull of drowning in love and the intoxicating power of passion that unravels reason.
The emotions shine with a sensual, dangerous glow, like a city shrouded in the darkness of night.
Released in November 2021 and written as the theme for TBS’s Friday drama “Saiai,” the track is also included on the album “BAD Mode.” While grounded in club music, its elegant production weaves a beautiful, memorable melody.
It’s perfect as background music for a quiet night drive or intimate moments with someone special.
With its refined, adult allure and delicate emotional expression, it’s an exquisite track that truly resonates.
CrystalsYuka
This is a digital-only single by singer-songwriter Yukau, released in October 2023.
It was selected as the theme song for the ABC TV drama “Even If I Forget You.” Within this very gentle, ballad-style track, Yukau’s rich, resonant voice sinks deep into the heart.
It’s a song I’d especially love for women who are strong in the lower register to try singing at karaoke! For the high notes in the chorus where falsetto is used, practice to ensure you can switch smoothly between registers.
MermaidYuka
Singer-songwriter Yuka, who has gained popularity for her refined musical sensibilities inspired by Western music.
She has many catchy songs, but her artistry has really sharpened lately.
Her new track “Mermaid” is a piece I particularly recommend for women with lower voices.
Although it’s sung in mixed voice, it doesn’t require a belted mix, so even women with low voices may find it surprisingly singable.
The range is also narrow, so if mixed voice is challenging for you, try boldly lowering the key.
pure whiteFuji Kaze
Fujii Kaze’s new song “Mashiro.” Unlike most of his works, this track features little R&B influence and comes together with an overall dream-pop feel.
Notably, its vocal range is quite narrow—not just small, but shaped into a gently flowing vocal line throughout—making it very easy to sing.
For some women with lower voices, the range may be narrow enough to sing without changing the key, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
The wind is callingGLIM SPANKY
This is a digital-only single by the Japanese duo Glim Spanky, released on June 16, 2021.
It appears to have been produced as the theme song for the 30th anniversary of abn Nagano Asahi Broadcasting.
It’s a very Glim Spanky-style, simple mid-tempo rock song, and in that sense, I think it’s relatively easy to sing if you pick it for karaoke.
That said, while I’m recommending it as a song for women who aren’t confident with high notes, I should mention that Remi Matsuo’s vocals in the chorus are impressively powerful in chest voice at a fairly high range—so if possible, I’d love for everyone to give that part a real try.
If you practice producing your voice as if you’re placing it against your upper palate and avoid squeezing your throat as much as possible, even those who struggle with high notes will surely be able to sing it!
AmbivalentUru
This is Uru’s ninth digital-only single overall, released in January 2024.
It was chosen as the opening theme for the second cour of the anime The Apothecary Diaries.
The production lets you fully enjoy Uru’s soft yet richly resonant vocals over a lively up-tempo groove.
Recreating that depth in karaoke is almost like a special privilege for women who are strong in the lower register, isn’t it? If your voice gets rough, it can spoil the feel of the original, so try to sing with as soft a touch as possible.
For the closing phrases at the end of each chorus, try placing the sound toward your lower jaw as you sing—you’ll likely get a deeper, better-sounding low tone.
Give it a try!
