…Baby One More TimeBritney Spears79rank/position

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

Britney Spears’s hit song “…Baby One More Time.” Compared to the other songs introduced here, this one is a bit more difficult, but if you’re confident in your lower range, you should be able to sing it with ease.

Genre-wise, it probably leans closest to R&B… Wait, isn’t R&B hard? If that’s what you’re thinking—don’t worry.

While this song features many R&B-style phrases, it doesn’t include any of the “runs” (vocal embellishments) commonly used in R&B! So it’s actually fairly easy to sing.

That said, the lyrics are sparse, which makes it harder to cover up mistakes.

If you still want a way to fudge it a bit, try incorporating edge voice—a technique where you slightly constrict your throat while singing.

Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)Eurythmics80rank/position

Eurythmics, Annie Lennox, Dave Stewart – Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This) (Official Video)

Wouldn’t it be cool to be able to sing a slick Western pop song? The thing is, there aren’t many like that out there.

This “Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)” is one of the few cool Western songs that’s easy to sing.

You’ll notice when you hear the melody that the song is surprisingly simple.

It actually works even without much dynamics or vibrato.

Of course, using those techniques will make it sound way better.

The melody leans toward the lower register, but if it’s too low for you, just raise the key.

The overall range is narrow, so it’s relatively easy to sing.

As for the falsetto parts in the middle of the song, feel free to tweak and arrange them loosely to get by.
