Top 10 Western Songs That Get the Crowd Going at Karaoke [2026] (1–10)
Shape of YouEd Sheeran1rank/position
If you’re choosing a song for the after-party karaoke, I recommend this track by Ed Sheeran, which became a record-breaking global hit.
Released in 2017, it’s an upbeat pop number infused with dancehall and tropical house elements.
The lyrics depict being drawn to someone met at a bar—straightforward and relatable—so even those not confident in English should find the catchy chorus easy to sing along to.
Its simple sound, built around a marimba-like synth riff and a minimal beat, naturally gets your body moving.
Why not fire up the whole room with this Grammy-winning track?
SugarMaroon 52rank/position
The calm groove, soulful vocals, and warm melodies never lose their brilliance, no matter how many years go by.
This song, in which Adam Levine’s clear, beautiful voice resonates pleasantly, is a popular track included on Maroon 5’s fifth album, “V.” Released in January 2015, it reached No.
2 on the U.S.
Billboard Hot 100.
Set to a sweet melody, the lyrics—centered on themes of love and desire—leave a strong impression.
The metaphor comparing deep feelings for a lover to “sugar” is superb and sure to touch listeners’ hearts.
While the song has a poppy, upbeat feel, it also conceals deep emotions and longing, which is part of its appeal.
If you sing it at karaoke, we recommend delivering it with a sweet, bittersweet sentiment.
We Will Rock YouQueen3rank/position
Included on their sixth album, News of the World, “We Will Rock You” is known as one of Queen’s signature songs.
Created so the audience could take part, its ensemble of just handclaps and foot stomps is simple yet tremendously impactful.
With its narrow vocal range and minimal dynamics, it’s perfect as an entry point to Western pop music.
It’s a massive hit that, when sung at karaoke, is sure to get everyone joining in for a rousing sing-along.
bad guyBillie Eilish4rank/position
The hit song “bad guy,” which gained worldwide popularity in 2019.
Many people may have discovered Billie Eilish through this track.
As the impression of the song suggests, with its downer-style melody and vocal line, it’s sung within a narrow range.
Moreover, it doesn’t require much vocal power, so you can sing it well even without an advanced level of fundamental vocal technique.
However, because it’s sung quietly, you’ll need to skillfully use a whispery voice and dynamic nuance, so pay close attention to your breathing.
It’s my lifeBon Jovi5rank/position
Live your life the way you truly want to.
A Bon Jovi classic carrying that powerful message was released in May 2000.
Dropped as the lead single from the album “Crush,” it became a massive hit, climbing high on charts around the world.
Jon Bon Jovi’s powerful vocals and the catchy melody leave a strong impression, making it a song that gives listeners a push forward.
It’s the kind of track that can get everyone hyped at karaoke—even those who aren’t big fans of Western music.
If you want to live true to yourself, this is a song you should definitely hear.
Smells Like Teen SpiritNirvana6rank/position
Released in September 1991, this track is a historic number that ignited the grunge movement on a global scale.
Its quiet-verse-to-explosive-chorus “quiet–loud” structure shocked the music scene at the time.
Lead singer Kurt Cobain said he set out to “write the ultimate pop song,” and the simple yet powerful guitar riff and lyrics portraying youthful apathy and alienation resonated with countless listeners.
It won two awards at the MTV Video Music Awards and peaked at No.
6 on the Billboard Hot 100.
With an instantly recognizable intro and a chorus that makes you want to shout, it’s a karaoke staple that unites the entire room.
Call Me MaybeCarly Rae Jepsen7rank/position
A song originally created as a folk tune was rearranged in a pop style and became a massive worldwide hit.
Characterized by Carly Rae Jepsen’s catchy melody and relatable lyrics, it expresses the excitement and uncertainty at the start of a romance.
Released in 2012, it spent nine consecutive weeks at No.
1 on the Billboard charts.
In Japan, it was also used as the commercial song for Kao’s “Humming Fine.” Depicting the feeling of love at first sight with someone you’ve just met, this upbeat track is recommended for those who want to lift their spirits.
