I want to try singing at karaoke, but enka is for people who are good singers, right? There may be many of you who think you’re tone-deaf and worry about it like that.

Of course, enka is a genre that demands advanced technique, so if you try to sing it perfectly, it can be difficult even for people who are fairly confident in their singing ability.

So this time, we’ve put together songs that are easy to sing even for those who consider themselves tone-deaf—tracks that you can still enjoy and that will liven up a karaoke session even if you can’t sing them perfectly.

We’ve chosen not only songs that are easy to sing but also ones you can win over with energy and vibe.

For example, try singing just the famous chorus, or hand off the tricky parts to your friends—get creative and have fun!
