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.

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.

Die With A SmileLady Gaga, Bruno Mars

The song “Die With A Smile” by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars.

Perhaps in line with the revival boom, this piece is crafted to evoke the neo-soul of the 1970s.

Since it falls under Black music genres, it might seem challenging, but because it doesn’t feature much of the technique known as “fake” in Western music—similar to the “kobushi” ornamentation in enka—the overall difficulty is relatively low.

If you can’t hit the falsetto in the chorus, try raising the key instead until you can produce a clear falsetto.

Like A PrayerMadonna

Madonna is a female singer-songwriter who gained worldwide popularity in the 1980s with catchy music that resonates with everyone.

She has released numerous hit songs, but one of the most recommended, easy-to-sing tracks is Like A Prayer.

Although it’s arranged as an upbeat dance-pop number, the vocal line is surprisingly simple and composed.

There aren’t any high parts either, so I think it’s an accessible English song even for those who aren’t confident in their singing.

Speechless (from Aladdin)Naomi Scott

For those confident in their lower register, I recommend “Speechless (from Aladdin).” It’s sung by Naomi Scott, who played Jasmine in the hugely successful live-action Aladdin.

Since she isn’t primarily a singer, her vocal ability isn’t extremely high—which means the song is relatively easy to sing.

However, because it’s not a lyric-dense song, it can feel drawn out, so it can be tough if you can’t do vibrato.

The low notes at the beginning are also challenging.

Western pop is overwhelmingly more difficult than Japanese pop, so that’s something you can’t really avoid.
