A must-see for low-voiced women! Popular songs that are easy to sing at karaoke
These days, many songs for both women and men are in higher keys, so there are probably many women with lower voices who feel, “I can’t find songs I can sing because my voice is low,” or “I’m looking for lower-key songs for karaoke.” Forcing yourself to sing songs that don’t suit your natural voice can hurt your throat, and it can be stressful when you can’t sing the way you want.

Male artist (41–50)
Gray and BlueYonezu Kenshi + Suda Masaki
A track released on various music streaming services starting October 11, 2017, as an advance release from Kenshi Yonezu’s fourth album, BOOTLEG.
It was produced with actor Masaki Suda as a guest vocalist.
Incidentally, the same song is also included on Masaki Suda’s first album.
Judging by the credits alone, you might briefly think it’s a “duet,” but it doesn’t really feel like one; it’s a song that can be fully performed as a solo.
If a woman with a boyish voice sings it, the track comes across as calmer and quite lovely.
I think it would be a great choice for women with lower voices!
cherry blossomMoriyama Naotaro
This was Naotaro Moriyama’s second single, released in March 2003.
Although it’s a male-vocal song, Moriyama himself has a very androgynous voice, so it might actually feel more natural when sung by a woman.
In terms of melodic range, it’s high for a typical male key but on the low side for most women—making it one of the best choices for lower-voiced female singers.
Many of my female vocal training students choose this song, too.
The lyrics also sound completely natural when sung by a woman, so give it a try.
BFFMrs. GREEN APPLE
It seems that the performance style of “BFF” features only the three members of Mrs.
Green Apple, with no supporting instruments.
Each sound is clean, making it a simple ballad.
The vocal range is C3 to D5, with C#4 used frequently throughout the song.
The first note of the A melody is the lowest pitch, which might make it a bit tricky to hit accurately.
For the low notes, focus not on “pushing strongly” but on “releasing your voice slowly.” If you lift your facial muscles properly and project your voice as if placing it right in front of you, it will resonate well even in the low register.
By the way, when singing, it’s generally ideal to keep your facial muscles lifted the entire time.
I always tell my students this, and since Omori-san often does it, be sure to watch closely! Also, there’s humming in the song, so definitely try it.
If you can hum lightly, singing the rest will become easier!
LonelinessMrs. GREEN APPLE
This song is included on the 5th album “ANTENNA,” released on July 4, 2023, and it conveys Ms.
Omori’s strength and gentleness.
The overall vocal range is C3–D5, but there aren’t many high notes in the song; it mostly sits around G3, so I think it’s a piece you can sing almost entirely in chest voice.
That said, there are spots where falsetto appears—switch lightly into head voice, aiming for a gentle head resonance.
The chorus is where the emotion really surges and you can feel the power.
Keep a solid sense of rhythm and hit the first note cleanly.
Also, when the melody changes, be mindful of pitch.
If your singing style shifts drastically, you may tense up or strain your throat, so keep your facial muscles lifted to prevent the pitch from dropping.
Try to maintain the sensation of resonance around the glabella (between the eyebrows) throughout.
Sing of springback number
A track included on back number’s first mini-album “Nogashita Sakana,” which was released on February 18, 2009.
I mentioned at the beginning of this article that being able to sing male-vocal songs is a special privilege of low-voiced women, and this song is truly one of the best choices to showcase the charm of those low-voiced singers.
Try singing it with style and draw your friends’ attention! For the higher parts like the chorus, try placing the sound as if you’re resonating it against your upper palate and nose; it will ring out beautifully, so give it a try!
