UNOMADEIN
Recent K-pop groups and multinational groups tend to have many songs with such high-performance demands that they’re hard to sing.
I imagine many teenage girls feel frustrated because they want to sing K-pop-style tracks but can’t.
That’s why I recommend UNO by the multinational group MADEIN.
It’s a stylish and cute piece in true K-pop fashion, but it has a narrow vocal range and no particularly difficult parts.
As long as you keep your pitch steady, it’s easy to sing and can even earn you a high karaoke score.
Walk with usMAGIC OF LiFE
“Walk with us” is a song whose words, like wishes sent up to the night sky, resonate in the heart.
It was included on MAGIC OF LiFE’s 2020 album MAGIC.
On nights when the anxiety you hold in your chest grows, the song expresses a desire to face tomorrow no matter what hardships lie ahead.
Its positive stance of accepting every version of oneself makes it a warm cheer for those undergoing medical treatment.
Share this song, whose passionate performance, lyrics, and vocals carry true courage.
WaterfallMAZZEL
MAZZEL is one of the most popular boy groups in Japan, drawing nationwide attention with performances that rival those of K-pop idols.
Among their songs, the highly challenging Waterfall is a standout recommendation.
Rather than being extremely wide in vocal range, it’s a track that repeatedly ventures into the high register, demanding strong pitch accuracy.
If someone can deliver the falsetto in the chorus while weaving in low-register rap, you could say they possess considerable vocal prowess.
WerewolfMotionless In White
Motionless In White is a metalcore band that has gained popularity for its dark aesthetic—rock fans are likely familiar with them.
Their take on metalcore leans more toward gothic metal and gothic rock, with many works built around a dark worldview.
Among them, the one I especially recommend is Werewolf.
As the title suggests, it’s a song themed around a werewolf, and it’s a fantastic piece that balances a dark atmosphere with undeniable coolness.
Definitely give it a listen.
Winter MoonNEWS
“winter moon,” a fleeting yet beautiful winter love story, is a song by the idol group NEWS included on their 2010 release “Fighting Man.” Set against expansive winter landscapes, it portrays two lovers who can never be together.
Alongside melodies that evoke the chill and wistfulness of winter, their rich choral work unfolds.
It could be fun to divide parts and sing it with middle-school friends or classmates.
Try singing this sentimental love song—imbued with a somewhat mature atmosphere—at karaoke.
Whisper CityNOMELON NOLEMON
Whisper City has a light, addictive melody line.
It’s a track by the music duo NOMELON NOLEMON, composed of composer Tsumiki and vocalist Miki Maria, and it’s included on their album Rule.
Set to a city pop–style sound, the song sings of the stillness of the night.
It strikes a fine balance—mellow yet rhythmic.
The live recording is excellent too, so be sure to check that out as well.
WISHNissy
A song filled with the positive messages Nissy delivers.
Its gentle melody and expressive vocals kindle hope in the hearts of listeners.
Released in October 2024, this track was distributed as part of Nissy’s 10th-anniversary project, and it ties in with the large-scale dome tour held around the same time.
The piece conveys a straightforward, loving desire to support someone dear.
Packed with Nissy’s charm, it’s the perfect song to listen to with someone special.
