Recommended karaoke songs for teenage girls: classic and popular J-pop hits.

I want to be lovedYumcha

Yumcha “Aisaretai” [Lyric Video]

Singer-songwriter Yumcha, whose lyrics about the hearts of women have made her popular among women in their teens and twenties.

Because she has many pop songs, many people mistakenly assume there are lots of high-pitched parts.

That’s why we recommend this track, “Aisaretai.” Compared to her other songs, this one has a relatively narrow vocal range, centered in the mid-to-high register.

As long as you choose an appropriate key, you shouldn’t have any concerns about vocal production.

In addition, the vocal line rises and falls much more gently than in typical pop songs, making it easy to sing in that respect as well.

sympathyDAZBEE

DAZBEE | “Sympathy” M/V

DAZBEE is an artist from South Korea who energizes Japan’s utaite scene.

Her biggest appeal is, without a doubt, her vocal timbre.

She’s known for a clear, translucent, high voice.

Because of that, people with a narrower vocal range might naturally shy away from her songs.

That’s why I recommend Sympathy.

It may seem high at first, but since the vocal lines are concentrated in the higher range, lowering the key makes it perfectly singable even for those with a limited range.

BLACK DOLLЯu-a

Яu-a 『BLACK DOLL』 Music Video

Ru-a is a multi-talented female rapper known for handling her own trackmaking.

Her artist name is pronounced “Lua.” She’s especially popular among teen gals, and among her songs, “BLACK DOLL” is particularly recommended as a piece with a very narrow vocal range.

The vocals are processed with Auto-Tune throughout, keeping the range quite compact.

Because of the narrow range, adjusting the key is also very easy, so consider adding it to your repertoire.

Can I visit you with cream?zutto mayonaka de ii no ni.

ZUTOMAYO “Can I Come See You With Cream?” MV (ZUTOMAYO – CREAM)

The band ZUTOMAYO, wildly popular among young people.

Because the vocalist ACA-ne has a high voice, many listeners might shy away from their songs.

That’s why I recommend this track, “Can I Come See You with Cream?” At first listen, you might think it’s a high-pitched piece, but surprisingly the vocal range isn’t that wide, and the melody doesn’t require sudden jumps in pitch, making it far easier to sing than it sounds.

Give it a try and add it to your repertoire.

SAKURAikimonogakari

SAKURA – Ikimonogakari (cover)

I think Ikimonogakari’s debut song, SAKURA, is one of the very best among all the cherry blossom songs—personally, it’s easily in my top one or two.

It’s a really beautiful track.

There was news this year about Ikimonogakari announcing a hiatus of sorts, but I hope they continue to sing great songs in the future.

PPAPPikotarō

PPAP (Pen-Pineapple-Apple-Pen Official) Pen-Pineapple-Apple-Pen / PIKOTARO (Pikotaro)

I think this was one of the most memorable songs of 2016, without exaggeration.

The track is short, but if everyone sings and dances along, it’s sure to get the crowd going.

It’s a song everyone knows, so it’s perfect for karaoke—highly recommended.

Love♡Scream!AiScReam

Love♡Scream!

If you’re a teen who wants to belt out something poppy and explosively cute at karaoke, I highly recommend “Ai♡Scream!” It’s the debut single from AiScReam, a limited-time unit from the Love Live! series, released in February 2025.

Just like the title suggests, it’s a love song that’s intensely sweet—like ice cream.

The spoken lines in the middle practically beg for call-and-response at concerts, and it’ll definitely hype up any karaoke session.

Having guys sing it together as a fun gag is totally a thing, too!
