Karaoke Ranking of Popular Hikaru Utada Songs [2026]

OathUtada Hikaru41rank/position

Hikaru Utada “Chikai” (Live Ver.)

Known as the theme song for Kingdom Hearts III, “Oath” employs a polyrhythmic feel that can be interpreted as either 4/4 or 6/8.

The accent on the third beat may feel unfamiliar to Japanese listeners, but since it isn’t actually in triple meter, you may find it surprisingly easy to keep time once you try singing it.

As for the vocal line, it features many somewhat soulful phrases, which might feel challenging for those not accustomed to soul or R&B.

If that’s the case, instead of aligning perfectly with the beat, try adding your own touch—like deliberately starting a bit late.

Songs with irregular-feeling rhythms lend themselves well to such stylistic adjustments, so even beginner vocalists should find it easier to sing in their own way.

JANE DOEYonezu Kenshi, Utada Hikaru42rank/position

Kenshi Yonezu, Hikaru Utada – JANE DOE

It’s a number that makes a swell of bittersweet emotion rise up.

Written and composed by Kenshi Yonezu, with vocals by Yonezu and Hikaru Utada, this track creates a one-of-a-kind chemical reaction.

It portrays a sorrowful yet beautiful love that seems to wish for someone to trace the blood left by wounds inflicted on oneself, and it’s the kind of song that loosens your tear ducts as you listen.

Utada’s voice, which sweeps through like the wind, further deepens the piece’s melancholic atmosphere.

Released in September 2025 on Yonezu’s single “IRIS OUT / JANE DOE,” this track served as the ending theme for the Chainsaw Man: Reze Arc theatrical anime.

Please savor the lingering afterglow of the story.
