Vanessa Carlton – A Thousand Miles

It’s a 2002 hit by American singer-songwriter Vanessa Carlton, and I don’t really know many of her other songs.

It’s an uptempo track you can play solo on piano, with a distinctive piano intro and a pleasant, easy-to-listen-to feel.

Justin Bieber – Love Yourself (Lyrics)

I want to show off a cool song at karaoke.

It might seem a bit challenging, but how about trying a Justin Bieber track? If you’re dealing with a breakup, take a cool approach toward the girlfriend who’s no longer around.

I recommend singing while understanding the lyrics.
