Children’s Songs by Western Female Singers – Popular Song Ranking [2026] (11–20)

Kaikai KitanEVE11rank/position

This is the fourth major-label digital-only single by singer-songwriter Eve, who made his major debut in 2019.

The song was selected as the opening theme for the TV anime Jujutsu Kaisen, and its thrilling yet catchy sound—very characteristic of Eve, who built his career primarily on the internet—makes it an unforgettable number.

With a complex yet exhilarating vibe, it heightens children’s anticipation for the anime that’s about to begin, making it a perfect fit for an opening theme.

KokomiEVE12rank/position

Eve is known for her gentle, memorable voice.

She doesn’t show her face in the media, giving her a mysterious aura, yet her refreshing tracks and moving ballads are also very popular.

The song “Shinkai” (Heart Sea) pairs the depths and chill of the unexplored deep sea with the depths and coldness of the human heart.

How can one connect with a heart as dark and cold as the deep sea—and with one’s own heart? Even amid uncertainties, the protagonist seeks out a glimmer of hope.

The lyrics portray that figure, sung over a breezy, ocean-like melody.

Kacey Musgraves – All Is Found (From “Frozen 2″/Lyric Video)
Lullaby of the Enchanted RiverKacey Musgraves

This is the song that appears as the end credit track for Frozen 2.

It’s a gentle, dreamlike ballad performed by country singer Kacey Musgraves.

The lyrics carry a hopeful message that what’s lost will one day be found, tying deeply into the film’s story.

With imagery that symbolizes the forces of nature and motherhood, the song resonates powerfully with listeners.

Released alongside the film in 2019, it is also included on the soundtrack album.

It’s perfect for listening alone on a quiet night, or for sharing with someone special.

I’ve Got a DreamMandy Moore14rank/position

Tangled – Cast – I’ve Got a Dream (From “Tangled”/Sing-Along)
I've Got a DreamMandy Moore

It’s the song where Rapunzel ventures into the outside world and befriends ruffians at a tavern.

The lyrics are upbeat, saying that no matter how you look, everyone has a dream they can’t give up.

Even someone with a scary appearance might love collecting trinkets, and even a villain might dream of becoming a pianist.

It’s a unique yet fun song.

All I Want For Christmas Is YouMariah Carey15rank/position

[Christmas ★ Easy Choreography] All I Want For Christmas Is You / Mariah Carey [Christmas party, kindergarten, nursery school, elementary school, junior high school, easy dance]
All I Want For Christmas Is YouMariah Carey

A Christmas song that both adults and children know and that I’d like to introduce is “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” It’s one of Mariah Carey’s signature songs, and in Japan it’s also widely known by its Japanese title, “Koibitotachi no Christmas” (Lovers’ Christmas).

Since it has an up-tempo rhythm, I think keeping the choreography as simple as possible will make it easier to remember.

By the way, this song has also been covered by artists like Kōmi Hirose and Justin Bieber.

Be sure to look for your favorite version.
