Coldplay – Yellow (Official Video)

For a teen’s birthday, I’m gifting some of Coldplay’s early hit songs.

It’s moving to think they once had this era too, considering how they now collaborate with EDM artists all the time.

These are also perfect songs to pick up an acoustic guitar and try some sing-and-play covers.

Pillow TalkZAYN67rank/position

ZAYN – PILLOWTALK (Official Video)

This is a song that can only be described as sexy.

If you can sing this, you’ll be one step closer to Zayn.

That’s the kind of song it is.

There are some high notes, but since it’s built from relatively short phrases, if you memorize the lyrics well and practice a few times, you should be able to sing it in no time.

Despite being a fictional K-pop group, Huntrix took the world by storm.

The vocals are handled by powerhouse artists EJ, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami, drawing attention for their exceptional quality.

Among their songs, the one I’d recommend to really get the crowd going at karaoke is this track, released as a single in July 2025.

Featured in the Netflix film “K-Pop Demon Hunters,” it became a massive hit, even reaching No.

1 on the Billboard Global 200.

Riding an electropop beat, the song delivers a stunning performance of dreams and determination.

It’s the perfect pick when you want to sing along with friends or belt it out like the star of the show.

Ariana Grande, who is extremely popular among young people around the world.

At first, she was in a relationship, but as time went on, she realized that being with that person only led to constant trouble and wasn’t good for her.

So she decides, “I’m breaking free now!”—it’s a powerful song.

The music video, themed around ’90s school life, is stylish as well.
