Chanmina – Memorial Day (Official Music Video) –

Chanmina, a female rapper with overwhelming support from young people, continues to broaden her musical range with each step in her career and keeps producing numerous hit songs.

Among her tracks, the one I especially recommend to teenage girls is “Meinichi” (Anniversary of a Death).

This piece portrays the darker sides of society and is crafted with a black, dark tone that perfectly matches its theme.

The vocal line centers on lower registers to fit that mood, making it an easy song to sing even for those who struggle with high notes.

DECO*27 – Monitoring feat. Hatsune Miku

DECO*27, a pioneer in the Vocaloid scene, enjoys overwhelming support.

The name is pronounced “Deco Nina.” He has created numerous classic tracks, but the one I especially recommend to teenagers is this piece included on the album TRANSFORM.

Released with a music video in November 2024, it captivated audiences with its dark worldview depicting a gaze through a door viewer, and sparked a huge reaction—topping the UGC charts in the first half of 2025.

It blends a nostalgic, Showa-era kayōkyoku-style melody with a heavy low end, and the overall vocal range isn’t very wide.

There are many spoken, conversational sections, so even those who aren’t confident in their high notes should be able to sing it comfortably.

Once you lock into its distinctive rhythm, it’s guaranteed to get the crowd going.

I love youuu!HoneyWorks feat. chū-tan38rank/position

Sukicchu-no! feat. Chuutan (CV: Saori Hayami) / HoneyWorks

The classic song “Sukicchuu no!” by HoneyWorks and Chuutan.

Compared to the previous work “Kawaikute Gomen,” the coyness is toned down, but femininity is brought to the forefront.

Contrary to its pop impression, the range sits around mid2B to hiD, so it isn’t particularly low.

However, since the overall range is on the higher side, key adjustments will be necessary in most cases.

It’s a song that tends to be well-received by men, so if you’re a high school girl, consider adding it to your repertoire.

Almond ChocolateLLIT39rank/position

[Spotify Exclusive] ILLIT 아일릿 ‘Almond Chocolate(Japanese ver.)’ | SBS INKIGAYO UNICON in TOKYO DOME

ILLIT is a K-pop group that’s rapidly gaining momentum.

The group name is pronounced “EYE-lit.” They’re particularly popular among teenagers, and one of their most beloved tracks is Almond Chocolate.

It’s an extremely cute, feminine song, but it features a lot of rests, allowing you to prepare properly before the high notes.

The range is fairly high, from mid1 F to high D#, but the abundance of rests makes it easier to handle the height, which is what makes this song easy to sing.

It’s a guaranteed hit with guys, so consider adding it to your repertoire.

A bouquet for boring daysLUCKY TAPES40rank/position

LUCKY TAPES – A Bouquet for Boring Days [Official Music Video]

Kai Takahashi’s solo project, LUCKY TAPES.

In the early days, their sound often mixed rock and J-pop, but recently the R&B side has grown stronger, and they’ve been releasing many stylish tracks.

Among them, the one I especially recommend is “Bouquet for Boring Days.” While it’s categorized as J-pop, it carries an R&B-like groove in places.

That said, the rhythm isn’t difficult, and it doesn’t feature the advanced vocal techniques common in R&B, such as melisma.

The vocal range is also very narrow, making it a song that should be easy for teenage male singers to perform.

Shine in the Cruel NightLiSA41rank/position

LiSA 'Shine in the Cruel Night' MUSIC CLIP

This is the theme song for the film Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Infinity Castle Arc Part 1: Akaza’s Return, released on July 19, 2025, and it’s a rock ballad that’s very characteristic of LiSA.

Since it’s a song from the hugely popular Demon Slayer series, many people are likely to know it! Singing it at karaoke could spark conversations about the movie and get everyone excited beyond just the music! The overall vocal range is F3–F5, which is quite wide and should be a very comfortable key for teenage girls.

While the song has some darker tones, that helps it connect with the story, making the lyrics easier to convey.

If you sing the chorus carefully, one phrase at a time, it’s easier to tap into the emotion and it feels great to sing! It’s on the longer side, but try enjoying it as if it contains many songs within one—have fun while you sing!

So in love I’m gonna perish!M!LK42rank/position

M!LK – So in love it’s devastating! (Official Music Video)

A pure love song that comically and poppily portrays an uncontrollably explosive crush, it’s a number that instantly warms up the karaoke vibe.

The repeated chants in the chorus and the irresistibly clap-along rhythms will send listeners’ excitement soaring.

Released in October 2025 as the work that caps off the 10th anniversary of the vocal dance unit M!LK, this track lets you feel their remarkable momentum—especially after their previous song “Ii jan” sparked a huge reaction, surpassing 2.4 billion total plays on social media.

Designed with call-and-response in mind, it’s perfect for lively sing-alongs with friends, tossing in ad-libs together.
