Ayaka’s Most Popular Karaoke Songs Ranking [2026]

The Beginningayaka8rank/position

Ayaka / Beginning Time Music Video

Ayaka’s classic song “Hajimari no Toki,” released in 2012.

The piece is characterized by a structure that develops from Japanese-style A and B verses into a chorus with a pop sensibility that carries a sense of seriousness, and compared to recent songs, it features a lot of long sustained notes.

If you aim to replicate Ayaka’s singing style, you’ll be sustaining with rich overtones, which makes it far more challenging than ordinary long tones.

Because the dynamics are quite dramatic, you can train not only your vocal sustain but also your expressiveness.

Koji Tamaki feat. Ayaka “Beautiful World” Music Video

A gem of a song whose deep, rugged vocals by Koji Tamaki and Ayaka’s gently enveloping voice resonate through your whole body, gradually warming even the deepest places in your heart.

The lyrics, which strikingly depict swearing eternal love to a precious person and then setting off toward the sky, are memorable.

While the heartfelt words are wonderful, the real highlight is the collaboration between the two vocal powerhouses, Koji Tamaki and Ayaka.

As you listen to their voices—combining strength with delicacy—you’ll feel the weight of sorrow in your heart gently lift.

Mai Shiraishi × Ayaka – Niji-iro / THE FIRST TAKE powered by ASAHI SUPER DRY

“Nijiiro,” one of Ayaka’s signature songs, was written as the theme for the NHK morning drama series Hanako to Anne.

It’s also a very popular karaoke song that many people love to sing.

Watching their collaboration on THE FIRST TAKE, it really feels perfect as a duet, doesn’t it? It’s an uplifting track that gently warms the heart—be sure to perform it at your next girls’ get-together!

Ayaka – Jewelry Day

This is Ayaka’s fifth single overall, released in July 2007.

It was also chosen as the theme song for Shochiku’s film “Last Love.” Set against a simple, acoustic backing track, the song lets you fully enjoy Ayaka’s incredibly charming vocals.

Since Ayaka is known for her exceptionally strong singing ability, many people might think, “Is it really easy to score high on this?” But if you listen closely to the original and study the finer nuances of her performance, there’s nothing to fear! In fact, because her use of dynamics and vibrato is very clear and easy to follow, I’d say this is a song where, if you carefully imitate her delivery, you can aim for a very high score.

Of course, it’s undeniable that to freely employ these techniques and express the song well, you need to have a solid foundation in singing.

Still, I encourage you to give it a try.
