In 2024, Kaela Kimura celebrates the 20th anniversary of her debut as a singer, and she continues to work with increasing energy while maintaining a unique position free from narrow categorization.

Heavily influenced by Western music, Kimura initially delivered punkish, catchy sounds with a cute flair—but the turning point in her career was Butterfly.

Released in 2009 as a digital-only single, the song was written for a close friend’s wedding and is filled with warmth and love.

Her performance of it on the NHK New Year’s Eve music show Kōhaku Uta Gassen helped make her a household name.

With a melody line that’s easy to relate to for listeners of all ages, it’s easy to sing and hugely popular at karaoke, making it a great pick if you’re aiming for a high score.

Since there are several higher notes in key spots, practice transitioning smoothly into falsetto so your voice doesn’t crack.

Kaela Kimura is a female singer-songwriter who remains popular today.

She has many great songs, but the one I especially recommend for aiming at a high score is “happiness!!!.” It’s known as a classic from her early career.

While it contains quite a few slightly high phrases, there are almost no long sustained notes, so if you sing it in an appropriate key, you shouldn’t have trouble with the high range.

There are some English lyrics sprinkled in, but the vocal line itself is simple, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

BALLADHamasaki Ayumi

For women in their 30s, Ayumi Hamasaki is the quintessential artist of their generation.

However, if you have a lower voice, you might feel her songs are challenging because of their wide vocal range.

That’s why I recommend “BALLAD.” As the title suggests, it’s a classic ballad, but unusually for an Ayumi Hamasaki song, it’s sung within a relatively narrow range.

The tempo is also slow, giving you plenty of time to prepare for the next entrance.

It’s sure to get a great response when you sing it in front of people from the same generation, so consider adding it to your repertoire.

Ayumi Hamasaki’s classic “STEP you” carries an atmosphere reminiscent of gothic rock.

The world it creates—born from sharp synths and melodies with a dark pop or gothic rock vibe—is truly stunning.

Interestingly, despite the character of the melody, the vocal line is relatively straightforward.

The A section sits a bit low, but the chorus doesn’t push the voltage much either, so the overall range is narrow and there are well-placed rests.

Definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

Ayumi Hamasaki’s classic “fairyland.” Because it opens with heavily effected vocals, it might at first seem like it wouldn’t be easy to sing, but that’s not the case.

Despite its energetic melody, the chorus’s vocal line is surprisingly straightforward, and the range stays within a reasonable span.

The high phrases are brief rather than sustained long notes, so it doesn’t depend much on the singer’s vocal timbre—another reason it’s relatively easy to aim for a high score.

I love youNishino Kana

Released in April 2018, this is Kana Nishino’s 33rd single, which was chosen as the theme song for the film “My Little Monster.” The song has a very relaxed tempo, and the vocals reflect that feel—overall it’s pleasantly laid-back in a way that makes it easy and fun to hum along to.

When singing it at karaoke, note that there are a few key changes throughout the track, so try not to get thrown off by them.

Like this all the way until morningKato Miria

Miliyah Kato’s classic “Konomama Zutto Asamade” (“All the Way Until Morning”).

As one of her early works, the song shows authentic R&B elements throughout.

You need a sense of groove to sing it, so rhythm is required, but the vocal line itself doesn’t have the kind of complexity typical of R&B.

In fact, because each phrase is short, it’s a song that doesn’t demand high-level foundational vocal technique.

If you’re not confident in your vocal power, consider adding this piece to your repertoire.
