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 (21–30)
sunflowerAdo
This is Ado’s 21st digital-only single, released in November 2023.
It was selected as the theme song for the TBS Tuesday drama “18/40: Dreams and Love If We’re Together.” Ado is a singer known for her deeply appealing low register, so I feel this is one of the best choices for women with lower voices to select at karaoke and show off their charm.
In the song, the slightly higher passages are sung in falsetto, so please practice switching registers smoothly.
Also, even in the powerful chorus sections, be careful not to let your singing become rough or harsh.
forgotten bloomGARNET CROW
This is GARNET CROW’s 17th single, released in November 2004.
It was used as the ending theme for the TV anime Detective Conan.
Yuri Nakamura, who serves as the vocalist for GARNET CROW, is a captivating singer with a voice that’s almost boyish.
Thanks to the distinctive qualities of Nakamura’s vocals, this song is also one of the best choices for low-voiced female singers as a karaoke pick.
The vocal melody doesn’t cover a very wide range, and the tune itself is easy to hum and enjoy, so be sure to select it casually at karaoke and give it a try.
Female vocal songs where women with low voices can shine (31–40)
Living My Lifemilet
This is singer-songwriter milet’s 11th digital-only single, released in July 2023.
It was chosen as the theme song for Kansai TV/Fuji TV’s new Monday 10 p.m.
drama, “The Job-Changing Devil.” The slightly languid mood of the track pairs exquisitely with milet’s somewhat lower vocal tone.
You could even say that being able to sing this kind of song well at karaoke is a special privilege of women with lower voices! To make it sound good, try singing with a slightly lingering sense of rhythm and beat—that’s the key.
Keep that in mind when you sing.
AldebaranAI
This is a song by AI that was also used as the theme for the NHK morning drama series Come Come Everybody.
Naotaro Moriyama wrote both the lyrics and the music, and you can feel a gentle yet powerful warmth that seems to embrace everything.
The vocals showcase AI’s strengths in R&B and soul, and her husky voice makes the kindness and strength of the lyrics come across directly.
It’s a track whose powerful, far-reaching delivery gives strength to those who listen.
Sweet FateUA
Released in February 1997 as UA’s seventh single.
It’s also her biggest hit, the only single she’s released to make the Oricon Top 10.
UA is known for her slightly soulful, husky, and low-toned voice, and even in this medium-slow, shuffle-beat, R&B-style track, those vocal qualities are brought out beautifully, creating a unique charm that other singers can’t easily imitate.
While the song calls for solid low notes as well as bright, resonant highs—making it a bit challenging for the average person to sing at karaoke—give it a try, and be sure to keep the beat from becoming flat!
A Little SongJUJU
JUJU is also an artist who brings out a gentle low register, and she has lots of easy-to-listen-to songs! The A and B sections have a calm feel based on the mid-to-low range, so sing carefully, one phrase at a time.
Also, the final chorus modulates and goes higher—the top note reaches D5—so it might be a bit tough for lower-voiced women, but be careful not to strain your throat or belt.
Sing with the sensation of a soft hum, imagining the sound resonating in your forehead and the top of your head.
Doing this may expand your vocal range and help you sing a wider variety of songs!
Put ‘Em UpAmuro Namie
This is Namie Amuro’s 24th single released under her solo name, issued in July 2003.
During the era when she was racking up million-selling hits produced by Tetsuya Komuro, she actually had more allure in her mid-to-low vocal range than in the high notes often featured in Komuro’s melodies.
On this track, produced by Dallas Austin, the sound design is such that you could almost call it Western music with Japanese lyrics, which helps showcase the full appeal of her lower register.
To sing this song well, it really comes down to how naturally you can deliver Japanese lyrics with a Western-style groove.
