[Western music] Christmas songs that make you want to sing at karaoke

Vocal coachKubota Mami
After working as a voice trainer at a studio for seven years, I went independent in 2025. To date, I’ve taught more than 300 students. Honestly, I started teaching out of simple curiosity (lol). When I was job hunting, I stumbled across a listing for a “vocal instructor,” thought, “What is this?!” and applied on impulse. That’s how I became a teacher with zero prior knowledge—so I went through more training than anyone and studied a lot on my own. When I started teaching what I’d learned to my students, their responses were really positive, and that’s when I felt a real sense of purpose. As a teacher, I absolutely love those moments when I’m growing together with my students. As for my musical activities, I’ve been playing bass in a wind ensemble since high school and still do. I’ve also performed live in a band as a singing bassist, and sometimes I’m invited to sing as a vocalist only. Through vocal training, I want to keep using my voice and stay healthy and beautiful for years to come!

[Western Music] Christmas Songs You'll Want to Sing at Karaoke (21–30)

Christmas EveIdina Menzel

Christmas Eve

Christmas EveIdina Menzel

This song is included on a Christmas holiday album released in 2014.

In Japan, the same album was also released under the title “Snow Wishes,” and the song appears there as well.

Since it shares the same melody as Tatsuro Yamashita’s “Christmas Eve,” it’s very easy to listen to.

If you want a stylish English version, Idina Menzel’s rendition might be a good choice.

That said, the song builds steadily toward the latter half, so there are several spots where you’ll need to hit higher notes.

The ending phrases have very cool melodic lines, so men can lower the key and still deliver it well.

Overall, rather than enunciating crisply throughout, it’s better to sing with awareness of accents at the beginning and in certain parts.

Christmas Tree feat. Space CowboyLady Gaga

Lady Gaga – Christmas Tree FULL VERSION [feat. Space Cowboy] Super HQ

Christmas Tree feat. Space CowboyLady Gaga

It’s a party-style track that samples the melody of the traditional carol “Deck the Halls,” layered with new lyrics and a fresh beat.

It has a different vibe from typical Christmas songs, with constant call-and-response parts that make it perfect for hyping up the middle of a karaoke session.

Rather than a belting song, it’s one that lifts the atmosphere! The vocal range isn’t too high or too low, so it’s great for everyone to sing along and get energized.

Be sure to enjoy singing it at parties or in big karaoke groups!

Every Year, Every ChristmasLuther Vandross

Luther Vandross – Every Year, Every Christmas

Every Year, Every ChristmasLuther Vandross

Luther Vandross has a soft, rich singing voice.

“Every Year, Every Christmas” is a Christmas song that suits his voice perfectly.

Because it’s a relaxed tempo, even those who aren’t confident in English pronunciation can sing it calmly.

There are plenty of parts to really sing out, and it feels good just to listen—so if you can master it, it’ll feel even better! Vocal power is important, but more than that, focus on resonance when you sing.

In the parts where the chorus swells, use your breath well to project your voice farther, and let it resonate in your chest and head.

Simply placing a hand on your chest helps you feel the resonance and makes it easier to sing.

For high notes, don’t force chest voice; aim for head resonance so you can use a strong falsetto—be especially mindful of your breath here too!

Holly Jolly ChristmasMichael Bublé

Michael Bublé – Holly Jolly Christmas [Official HD]

Holly Jolly ChristmasMichael Bublé

Originally, it’s a classic Christmas song from the 1960s, first performed by Burl Ives.

Michael Bublé’s version was released in 2011.

It has jazzy elements, making it very stylish and easy to groove to.

At just two minutes long, it’s not hard to learn and feels familiar, so I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to pick up a Christmas tune! Overall, it’s a song that sounds really cool when sung with a relaxed feel and a light touch.

The jazz swing is key—don’t overthink it, let your body catch the groove! The rhythm will naturally fall into place.

I feel like it’s perfect for singing while swaying side to side with a drink in hand.

Try singing it as if you’re humming during a little break!

The First NoelPentatonix

Pentatonix – The First Noel (Official Video)

The First NoelPentatonix

Many of you may already know the original song, which comes from the traditional English Christmas carol “The First Nowell / The First Noel.” Pentatonix focuses on a cappella harmonies, making both the lead melody and the harmony parts easy to hear, and their singing seems to flow straight into the heart.

Some of you might be practicing a cappella for the Christmas season, right? Since a cappella relies on singing in perfect sync, I think it’s best to memorize the lyrics completely.

Of course, singing it solo at karaoke also creates a great atmosphere! Rather than singing it in a flowing manner, if you deliver each phrase carefully and with feeling, it becomes a very compelling piece—so sing it with confidence!
