Recommended for women in their 30s! Karaoke songs that are easy to sing even if you're not good at singing
I think there are many people who aren’t good at singing or don’t feel very confident about it.
But if you always turn down or shy away from joining karaoke outings, it might cause issues in your friendships or workplace relationships.
In this article, I’ve gathered songs that seem easier to sing, even for those who usually say things like “I’m not good at singing” or “I’m tone-deaf.”
Since many recent songs have complex melodies, I’ve included quite a few nostalgic tracks from the ’90s and earlier.
If you’re at karaoke with seniors or your bosses, that kind of song selection might actually be a good fit.
Some of the song descriptions include quick tips on how to make them sound good, so feel free to use them as a reference when you sing!

Like the flow of a riverMisora Hibari
This is a single by Hibari Misora, released on January 11, 1989.
It was also the last single released during her lifetime.
Needless to say, Hibari Misora was a top-tier singer with remarkable vocal prowess.
That said, not just this song but many so-called “Showa-era kayōkyoku” have simple melodies and rhythms, making them a treasure trove for people who aren’t confident singers looking for karaoke songs.
If you try to replicate Hibari’s vocal expression, the bar becomes very high, but if you simply trace the melody, it’s a fine song you can enjoy casually, even humming along.
For those in their thirties at the time of this writing, it may feel a bit too old-fashioned, but don’t let that stop you—please enjoy it.
Goodbye, my beloved.Hana＊Hana
This was Hanahana’s second major-label single, released on October 25, 2000.
It was also used as the theme song for the TBS Toshiba Sunday Theater drama “Oyaji” that aired in the October 2000 season.
The song is notable for its very gentle, beautiful melody, and its lyrics are likely to resonate especially strongly with women.
Because the melody is familiar and easy to hum without pressure, even people who feel uneasy about singing can enjoy humming along casually.
There are some slightly higher notes in the B section, but I think it will sound better if you adjust the key so you can sing it comfortably in your chest voice without using falsetto, keeping it within a range that’s easy to sing.

Snow BlossomNakajima Mika
I realized that Mika Nakashima’s song Yuki no Hana is actually quite easy to sing.
I used to think her voice was so distinctive that I couldn’t possibly sing it well without practice, but when I tried it at karaoke, I was surprised to find I could sing it without going off pitch.
dogwood (flowering dogwood)Hitoto Yo
This is Yo Hitoto’s fifth single overall, released on February 11, 2004.
It’s a very simple ballad in terms of backing arrangement and performance.
Some people who aren’t confident singers might feel a bit hesitant to pick it for karaoke, but the vocal melody itself is quite plain and straightforward, and there’s nothing particularly difficult rhythmically or in terms of phrasing.
In that sense, I think it’s a song you can casually hum and feel comfortable selecting.
That said, if you try to replicate all the subtle vocal nuances, the difficulty can ramp up quickly, so don’t worry too much about that—just have fun with it!
Cutie HoneyKōda Kumi
This was Kumi Koda’s 11th single, released on May 26, 2004.
It was issued as a single by re-cutting Cutie Honey, which had only been included on the limited first pressing of her third album “feel my mind,” and adding three new songs; the disc itself was released under the title “LOVE & HONEY.” It’s a song with a somewhat unusual background.
The track is a remake of the theme song from the 1970s anime Cutie Honey, and it was produced as the theme for that anime’s live-action remake.
Compared to the original anime version, this arrangement has a slightly jazzy feel that’s pretty cool.
Some listeners may find it a bit harder to sing because of the jazzy arrangement, but the vocal melody itself—perhaps because it’s originally an anime song—is very catchy and easy for anyone to hum along to.
So even if you don’t usually sing much, I think it’s an easy pick for karaoke.
By all means, try singing it with the same sexy flair as Kumi Koda.
StoryAI
This is AI’s 12th single overall, released on May 18, 2005.
Because AI is highly acclaimed for her vocal ability—and on top of that, this is a slow ballad—many people who aren’t confident singers might hesitate to choose it at karaoke.
However, the melody itself isn’t difficult at all; it’s actually quite easy to sing, so there’s no need to be afraid of it.
That said, what’s important for making this song sound good is to thoroughly understand the piece, including the lyrics, before you sing.
I believe the most crucial point of expression in this song is conveying emotion through the lyrics and valuing the rests—the spaces between phrases and between words—as part of your singing.
PRIDEImai Miki
This was Miki Imai’s 12th single, released in November 1996.
It became her biggest hit and was used as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “Doc,” selling over 1.6 million copies.
Structurally, the song is simple—one chorus follows a verse (A section) → bridge (B section) → verse (A section/chorus)—which makes it very easy to remember and hum along to.
I’d love for people who aren’t confident about singing—those who say things like “I’m not good at singing” or “I’m tone-deaf”—to choose this song and try singing it casually.
I’m sure you’ll discover how fun singing can be! Try to sing it gently and tenderly.
