Britney Spears – …Baby One More Time (Official Video)

Britney Spears, a pop singer who was hugely popular in the U.S.

scene in the 2000s.

If you’re a parent with an elementary school child now, she might be from your generation.

Among her songs, the one I particularly recommend is …Baby One More Time.

One of her signature tracks, it’s a cool piece of pop music with R&B elements.

Because the vocal range is narrow, it’s very easy to sing—even for elementary school kids who aren’t confident singers.

The Lazy SongBruno Mars27rank/position

Bruno Mars – The Lazy Song (Official Music Video)

“I don’t want to do anything today!” There’s a perfect song for that lazy mood by American artist Bruno Mars.

It humorously portrays a slothful day of ignoring calls and just lazing around in bed—something many listeners can relate to.

Set to a laid-back, reggae-inspired groove, the bold celebration of “doing nothing” alone can make you feel lighter just by listening.

Released in February 2011 from his debut album Doo-Wops & Hooligans, the track topped the charts in the UK.

If you’re worn out from schoolwork or club activities, it might be nice to put this song on and plan a day to just relax and do absolutely nothing.

Daft Punk – Get Lucky (Full Video)

A collaboration between the French electro house duo Daft Punk and Pharrell Williams.

Its nostalgic, disco-style sound lifts your spirits, and the message—live without wasting time to seize good fortune—gives you strength.

Daniel Powter – Bad Day (Official Music Video) [HD]

Daniel Powter’s song “Bad Day.” The title might sound a bit negative at first, but if you try translating the English lyrics into Japanese, your impression will change completely.

It was a huge hit in 2005, a warm track that gives you a boost when you’re feeling down.

Even years after its release, it remains a timeless classic, and the melody is wonderful—listening to it and making it the first English song you can sing as part of your repertoire would be pretty cool!

I’m Good (Blue)David Guetta & Bebe Rexha30rank/position

David Guetta & Bebe Rexha – I’m Good (Blue) [Official Music Video]

For energetic elementary school students, EDM can be considered one of the more approachable genres.

Among EDM tracks, a standout recommendation is “I’m Good (Blue).” It was one of the most-played club tracks in 2023, featuring a driving production by David Guetta and sleek vocals by Bebe Rexha that mesh perfectly.

While the catchy melody tends to steal the spotlight, the repeated phrases and narrow vocal range make it easy to sing—even for elementary schoolers whose voices may be unstable due to changes like the onset of voice deepening.
