[For women] Songs with a narrow vocal range that are easy to adjust the key for!

Never Grow Upchanmina

Chanmina – Never Grow Up (Official Music Video)

Female rapper Chanmina, who enjoys overwhelming support from women in their teens and twenties.

Released in 2019, this track gained popularity with its tropical house-inspired sound and downbeat, whisper-like vocals.

The song’s range is mid2A to hiD#, which is high but relatively narrow overall.

Since the key can be lowered sufficiently, it’s one of the more singable songs among Chanmina’s works.

Because of the nature of rap, there tend to be fewer breakpoints, so it’s recommended to adjust your vocal output to align with the sections where you can take proper breaths.

Even when I become an old ladyMoritaka Chisato

Watashi Ga Obasan Ni Nattemo

Chisato Moritaka’s 16th single, released in June 1992.

It was used as the theme song for the Nippon TV drama “Matta Nashi!” As you’d expect from Moritaka, who once used the phrase “Declaration of Non-Talent” as a catchphrase and album title, this track is bright and delightfully laid-back.

So when you sing it at karaoke, there’s no need for any complicated commentary! Just enjoy it with the same easygoing vibe as Moritaka.

In terms of vocal range, I don’t think anyone will find it tough to sing in the original key.

If there’s one tip, try to keep your voice as bright as possible.

ScarletDAZBEE

DAZBEE | “Scarlet” M/V

DAZBEE, a female singer from Korea known for her extremely cute vocal tone, has been gaining popularity.

She has produced many hit tunes, but among them, the song we recommend for its narrow vocal range is Scarlet.

While her works often feature prominent high notes, this track stays within the mid to mid-high range.

The rhythm isn’t particularly difficult either, so it’s an easy song to sing not only because of its compact range.

If you find it high, there’s no problem lowering the key from the original—give it a try.

Koi-bi and ROMANCEGMU

GMU 15th single “Koibi to ROMANCE”

This is the 15th single by GMU, the idol group serving as sightseeing ambassadors for Aomori City.

The song incorporates elements of Baroque music and has a somewhat nostalgic feel.

I think it’s a track that can be performed solo and still sound cool and exciting! Listening from the A melody, it gives the impression of having quite a lot of low notes.

High notes can be easier to hit when you project your voice with energy, but low notes are the opposite: if you use plenty of breath and release your voice slowly, as if right in front of you, it becomes easier to stay on pitch.

There are many tips for this, but the most important is to let a “bundle” of breath out slowly in front of you.

I used to struggle with low notes myself, but as I studied vocal training and experimented, this method made it much easier for me to sing low notes.

Since we don’t often use low voices in daily life, it’s natural not to be accustomed to them.

When you sing, try to keep these tips in mind!

SunYorushika

Yorushika – Sun (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

Yorushika is a musical duo that enjoys overwhelming support from younger generations.

Their ennui-tinged songs are especially popular, and they generally give the impression of being relatively easy to sing.

Among Yorushika’s works, the one I particularly recommend is Taiyo (The Sun).

This song boasts one of the narrowest vocal ranges in Yorushika’s catalog and is arranged with a simple vocal line that anyone can sing.

While it’s a song anyone can perform, it really shines with slightly lower-voiced female singers, so it’s a piece I’d especially love women with lower voices to try.

RISE UPNiziU

NiziU(니쥬)「RISE UP」M/V

NiziU’s new song “RISE UP.” While NiziU initially continued to release works centered on cute-sounding songs, lately they’ve been actively putting out stylish tracks in line with the current K-pop boom.

“RISE UP” falls into the latter category, with a cool, icy vibe throughout.

The vocal range—excluding the chorus—is on the narrower side, so it’s not a problem even if you can’t hit high notes.

The overall style isn’t particularly difficult either, so women in their teens to twenties who are used to today’s more challenging songs should be able to sing it without issue.

Never endsUru

[Official] Uru “Never ends” Theme song for the TBS Friday drama “DOPE: Narcotics Control Division Special Investigations Unit”

“Never ends,” the theme song for TBS’s Friday drama DOPE: Narcotics Control Division Special Investigation Unit, will sound familiar to anyone watching the show.

In this song, the verses (A-melody to B-melody) are set on the lower side, so try singing gently and carefully without belting right from the start.

The high notes in the chorus go up to around D#5, but avoid belting those as well—aim to hit them cleanly in head voice like Uru.

There’s also a low note around C3 in the bridge, which may feel low for women; sing it softly without straining your throat.

Since it’s fine to use head voice for the high notes, I recommend adjusting the key so the low notes are easier to reach.
