Karaoke songs in Western music that are easy for women in their 20s to sing

We often go to karaoke in various situations—among friends, at work, with a boyfriend—but choosing songs is always a dilemma, isn’t it?

Especially if you don’t want to sing the same songs as always, and ideally you want stylish, cool tracks that help you stand out from the crowd.

For you, we’ve put together a list of 30 recommended Western songs.

This time, we’re focusing especially on how easy they are to sing.

Karaoke songs in Western music that are easy for women in their 20s to sing (41–50)

You Raise Me UpCeltic Woman

Celtic Woman – You Raise Me Up (Live)
You Raise Me UpCeltic Woman

Celtic Woman, a group active mainly in Celtic music.

Their version of “You Raise Me Up” is a cover, yet it’s also known as one of their signature songs.

I’ll say this upfront: if you try to imitate Celtic Woman when you sing this, the difficulty will shoot up.

So what should you do? The key to making quiet, melodic Western songs sound good is to whisper.

If there’s a part you’re not confident about, just whisper it and convey a sense of emotion.

Be sure to adjust the key properly—otherwise you might not be able to hit the notes in the latter half—so know your own key in advance.

If We Hold On TogetherDiana Ross

If you can manage vibrato, I highly recommend “If We Hold On Together.” This song is sung by the globally popular artist Diana Ross, and because her singing style sticks to the basics, it’s surprisingly easy to sing.

The lyrics are on the shorter side, so there are quite a few long notes.

However, there aren’t any shouty phrases, so you shouldn’t run out of breath very often.

If you’re at least a little confident in your singing, definitely give it a try!

Don’t Start NowDua Lipa

Dua Lipa’s dance tune “Don’t Start Now.” Even though it’s called a dance tune, it doesn’t have an electro feel.

The track isn’t busy or cluttered, so when you sing it, it’ll probably feel quite simple.

Since Dua Lipa is known for her low vocal tone, the low range is emphasized in this song as well.

That said, it’s not so low that you won’t be able to sing it.

It doesn’t require vibrato or vocal runs, but there are staccato-like vocals, so a good sense of rhythm is necessary.

Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)Eurythmics

Wouldn’t it be cool to be able to sing a slick Western pop song? The thing is, there aren’t many like that out there.

This “Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)” is one of the few cool Western songs that’s easy to sing.

You’ll notice when you hear the melody that the song is surprisingly simple.

It actually works even without much dynamics or vibrato.

Of course, using those techniques will make it sound way better.

The melody leans toward the lower register, but if it’s too low for you, just raise the key.

The overall range is narrow, so it’s relatively easy to sing.

As for the falsetto parts in the middle of the song, feel free to tweak and arrange them loosely to get by.

Amazing GraceHayley Westenra

Here’s a slightly older song… Though it’s old, it’s one everyone knows.

You’ll recognize ‘Amazing Grace’ when you hear it—it’s arranged with an incredibly simple melody.

You might feel it has a lot of high notes, right? You can fix that by lowering the key.

Since the song starts out in a high range, lowering the key a bit won’t make it too low to sing.

The lyrics don’t have many words either, which makes it easier to add your own arrangements.

It’s a great choice for absolute beginners.

LIFETIMESKaty Perry

Katy Perry is a female singer-songwriter who has gained popularity for her powerful vocals and musicality.

If you have even a slight interest in Western pop music, you’ve probably encountered her songs.

Among her tracks, the one I especially recommend is “LIFETIMES.” It blends Italo house with pop dance, creating a very refreshing feel, while the vocal line is surprisingly restrained.

Since the vocal range is narrow, if you pay attention to the initial phrasing, you can make it sound pretty convincing.

Bad RomanceLady Gaga

It’s a single by Lady Gaga released in 2009.

Overseas, opinions are divided—perhaps due to the provocative music video—but in Japan it’s very popular, and although it requires quite a bit of practice, many people still sing it at karaoke.

The key when singing it at karaoke is how clearly you can pronounce the English lyrics.
