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 low-voiced women can shine (121–130)
green liquorToukyou Jihen
A track included on Tokyo Jihen’s full album “Ongaku (Music),” released on June 9, 2021.
Remarkably, this is their first full album in ten years! The band’s vocalist, Ringo Sheena, has a voice rich in higher overtones, so those who struggle with high notes might think, “Could someone like me sing this?” However, the melodies in the A and B sections are designed to suit calmer voice types, so please give it a try.
There are a few high notes in the chorus, but since Ringo Sheena herself uses a lot of falsetto in her delivery, with some practice in that area, you’ll surely be able to sing it!
purplejoōbachi
Queen Bee is a three-piece rock band that continues to command a singular presence in Japan’s music scene with overwhelming vocal ability, genre-defying songs, and dramatic live performances rooted in their own aesthetics.
While retaining an underground vibe, Queen Bee has also achieved commercial success.
Their digital single “Murasaki,” released in February 2025, reveals a new side of the band: it’s a straightforward ballad of grand scale that captivates from the very first lines.
Vocalist Avu-chan is known for a wide vocal range, but “Murasaki” is largely built around low to mid-range melodies, making it a comfortable song even for women with lower voices to sing.
Dear My FriendEvery Little Thing
When it comes to singing this song, the tempo sits in a comfortable medium-to-upbeat range, and the melodic range isn’t very wide, so I think even those who aren’t confident singers will find it easy to sing.
However, there are a few spots in the D section that require some higher notes, and the final chorus modulates and goes up in key, so please be careful with the karaoke key settings.
Overall, as long as you keep a good groove and avoid dragging the rhythm, you’ll be fine!
death anniversarychanmina
This is rapper Chanmina’s 17th digital-only single, released in August 2023.
Chanmina, who sings this track, has an incredibly appealing, slightly gritty low-register voice.
The song we’re featuring here, Memorial Day (Meinichi), is crafted to showcase the full charm of her voice, so I wholeheartedly recommend it as a karaoke pick for women with lower voices! When you sing it, try to place the sound toward your lower jaw inside your mouth and use a well-resonant chest voice that vibrates through your chest cavity.
And for the rap section near the end, keep the rhythm tight and avoid any stumbles so it sounds cool!

Wanted (Most Wanted / Wanted Person / Wanted Poster)pinku redii
This was the fifth single by Pink Lady, a popular idol duo from the Showa era, released in May 1977.
It was a massive hit at the time, boasting sales of over a million copies.
Among the two members of Pink Lady, Kei (Keiko Masuda) has a particularly attractive vocal quality, with a rich low register and a pleasantly husky tone—in a good way—which makes the song especially suitable for women who are strong in the lower range.
The melody is also very simple and easy to sing compared to modern songs, so if possible, try singing it as a pair with someone who, like Mie (MIE), has a bright, shining high range.
You might enjoy it even more if you imitate the choreography while you sing!
heartbeatNakajima Miyuki
This is Miyuki Nakajima’s 48th single, released in September 2023.
The song was written as the theme for the animated film “Alice to Therese no Maboroshi Kōjō” (Alice and Therese’s Illusory Factory), and it is said to be Nakajima’s first-ever anime song.
It’s crafted as a slow ballad that lets you fully savor Nakajima’s wonderfully seasoned vocals.
In karaoke, faithfully reproducing it might be a special privilege for women who are strong in the lower register.
Try singing with a solid chest voice, resonating in the thoracic cavity, as if you’re directing the sound toward your lower jaw inside your mouth.
Someone more important than a friendGoriki Ayame
Released in July 2013 as Ayame Gouriki’s debut single.
This is a song I can recommend not only to those who struggle with high notes—the theme of this piece—but also to people who find singing itself difficult.
That said, I’m not claiming Ayame Gouriki’s vocal ability is low; rather, the song is composed so that you can fully enjoy singing it without needing special vocal skills or expressive power.
Coupled with Gouriki’s simple, youthful charm, it’s been crafted into a track that demonstrates more than enough power as a single.
Don’t overthink it—just sing and have fun.
Even if you’re not confident in your singing, I’m sure you’ll discover the joy of it!
