[20s] Most Singable Western Songs for Karaoke [2026]

Love StoryTaylor Swift29rank/position

Taylor Swift – Love Story

Taylor Swift is a female singer-songwriter who has been active at the forefront of the global music scene for many years.

While she now incorporates a variety of genres, including synth-pop, back when she released Love Story, her music was primarily rooted in mainstream country.

True to country music, this song features a very singable vocal line.

There are hardly any advanced techniques like falls or vocal runs, and the range is relatively narrow for a female song (mid2A to hiB), so as long as you handle English linking properly, it should be easy to aim for a high score at karaoke.

Try EverythingShakira30rank/position

Shakira – Try Everything (Official Video)

Just like with R&B and soul, I think many people feel a bit uncomfortable with reggaeton and Latin music.

For those people, I recommend Try Everything.

It’s sung by Shakira, who is from Colombia, but actually, she doesn’t have a powerful voice.

Maybe because of that vocal quality, many of her songs don’t rely on shouting even in the chorus.

This song is like that, and so is the famous Waka Waka.

You do need a bit of vibrato technique, but even if you can’t hit very high notes, you can sing it without any problem.

BIRDS OF A FEATHERBillie Eilish31rank/position

Billie Eilish – BIRDS OF A FEATHER (Official Music Video)

Billie Eilish, a female singer-songwriter who’s also very popular in Japan.

Since the hit of “bad guy,” many of you are probably still following her, right? Among her works, the one I especially recommend is “BIRDS OF A FEATHER.” This track has a somewhat fantastical, dream-pop-like feel.

The pitch movement is gentle, and it’s easy to catch the rhythm.

The scale runs near the end of the chorus—almost like ad-libbed embellishments—are a bit tricky, so if you really can’t manage that part, it’s perfectly fine to use karaoke auto-tune to gloss over it.

Don’t Start NowDua Lipa32rank/position

Dua Lipa – Don’t Start Now (Official Music Video)

Dua Lipa’s dance tune “Don’t Start Now.” Even though it’s called a dance tune, it doesn’t have an electro feel.

The track isn’t busy or cluttered, so when you sing it, it’ll probably feel quite simple.

Since Dua Lipa is known for her low vocal tone, the low range is emphasized in this song as well.

That said, it’s not so low that you won’t be able to sing it.

It doesn’t require vibrato or vocal runs, but there are staccato-like vocals, so a good sense of rhythm is necessary.

Need You NowLady Antebellum33rank/position

Lady Antebellum – Need You Now

This is a Lady Antebellum song that beautifully portrays the loneliness and solitude of a bittersweet night.

The honest feeling of “I need you” resonates in the heart, carried by warm vocals and melody.

Released in January 2010, it garnered worldwide attention and won a Grammy Award.

Blending country and pop to perfection, this piece gently accompanies those moments when you think of an ex-lover or feel the ache of missing someone at night.

Why not sing it softly while reminiscing about precious memories with someone special?

Anna Kendrick – Cups (Pitch Perfect’s “When I’m Gone”) (Director’s Cut)

If you’re confident in your dynamics, I recommend “Cups.” At first, you might think it’s just a typical pop song, but surprisingly, it’s actually country music.

Country songs often tend to be fairly simple and don’t require much dynamic variation, but this track can sound sloppy without good dynamics, so be careful.

Even if you can’t do vibrato, you can get away with it by nicely fading out the ends of phrases.

It’s not an extremely easy song, but give it a try!

GirlfriendAvril Lavigne35rank/position

Avril Lavigne – Girlfriend (Official Video)

The hugely popular artist Avril Lavigne.

Her musical style—adding punk elements to poppy melodies—is really striking, isn’t it? All of her songs are built on simple melodies, and “Girlfriend” is no exception; it’s a very easy song to sing.

Even if you’re not good at vibrato, this song still works pretty well, so it’s great for beginners.

If you want it to sound even better, try cutting off the ends of phrases with a tossed-off feel.

Deliberately go for a rough, edgy singing style!
