Easy to sing: Cool songs by female artists that sound great when sung by men

“Songs by female artists are hard to sing…” You hear that a lot, but that’s not necessarily true!

The reason female songs can feel difficult is the difference in vocal range between men and women.

In other words, as long as you adjust the key, you can sing songs by female artists just fine.

That said, women often have a wider range than men, so in that sense, male singers may find female artists’ songs a bit harder to sing.

So this time, we’ve picked out female-artist tracks that are especially cool in style and easy for men to sing.

We also touch on some professional vocal knowledge and techniques, so be sure to check it out!

I want to tell you how I feel (my love)aimyon

A song from a male perspective that expresses the aching feelings you can’t quite convey to someone special, crafted with skillful word choice.

Released in May 2017 as the major-label second single, it resonated widely thanks to lyrics written from a man’s viewpoint by Aimyon, and it was also selected as the ending theme for KTS Kagoshima TV’s “Nama-Iki VOICE.” Vividly portraying the inner conflict of a man who can’t be honest about his feelings in love, this track speaks to anyone struggling to put their emotions into words.

Sung with a deep, masculine tone, it can offer a flavor distinct from Aimyon’s own performance.

A song that resonates with the heart, where poignancy and power intersect.

Its delicate emotional expression and overwhelming vocal performance captivate listeners.

Featured as the opening theme for the anime Demon Slayer: Entertainment District Arc and released digitally in December 2021, this track garnered overwhelming support, topping Billboard Japan’s Songs Chart in both downloads and streaming.

The lyrics, which sing of the strength to forge one’s own path and the courage to overcome past struggles, strike a chord with many.

If a male vocalist performs it, be sure to honor Aimer’s expressive nuance while infusing your own interpretation.

You’ll likely find it easier to immerse yourself emotionally and sing more comfortably than if you were just following the notes.

Just because a man has a low voice doesn’t mean he can’t sing songs originally for female vocalists.

Regardless of gender, what matters is the song’s vocal range.

If the range falls within a certain span, you can sing it without issues by adjusting to the appropriate key.

With that in mind, I recommend Taiyō.

It’s a masterpiece by Yorushika with a very narrow vocal range.

If you set it to the right key, even men with low voices can sing it comfortably, and since the vocal line is simple, consider adding it to your repertoire.
