[2026 Edition] Western Songs That Are Cool If You Can Sing! — From the Latest Hits to Classics (21–30)
Uptown Funk ft. Bruno MarsMark Ronson
A song I’d like to introduce as a surefire crowd-pleaser is “Uptown Funk ft.
Bruno Mars.” Many of you have probably heard it in commercials and the like.
The track was produced by DJ Mark Ronson, with vocals by Bruno Mars.
The song’s theme is basically about hitting the town and having fun with girls.
The melody keeps the energy high from start to finish, so the key is to sing it boldly without being shy.
It’s also perfect for singing loudly with friends!
24K MagicBruno Mars
The song “24K Magic,” which won seven awards at the 2018 Grammys, is a party track with irresistibly funky vibes.
Its lyrics are all about having a great time and going all-in at the party.
It’s simple, but that’s exactly why it gets everyone hyped without fail.
The toughest part when singing this song is probably the rap section.
If you struggle with pronunciation, it might help to slow it down and listen to that part repeatedly.

This ChristmasDonny Hathaway
Released as a single in 1970, this song differs a bit from traditional Christmas tunes, packing in “soul” and “R&B” elements.
It’s still popular today and is often sung at karaoke.
When you sing This Christmas, be mindful of the pauses and the groove.
In addition to bass and drums, there’s also a brass section, so those instruments are very important.
If you rely only on listening, your vocal entries may come in slightly late, so try moving your body back and forth and bring your voice in just a touch earlier.
That way, you should come in cleanly without lagging behind the band.
When singing at karaoke, getting everyone to clap along will help you lock into the feel and make it more fun.
Just be careful not to drift off the beat.
Love AgainDua Lipa
Dua Lipa is a British artist who’s making waves as a singer while also earning high praise as a model.
In Japan, many women who are into Western music likely admire her.
One of her 2021 hit songs is Love Again.
It’s a poppy, catchy track with an ‘80s vibe—cool yet nostalgic in its melody.
If you’re a woman with a lower vocal range, definitely give it a try.
yes, and?Ariana Grande
Ariana Grande, the American pop star celebrated around the world, released her latest track “yes, and?” in January 2024 as the lead single from her seventh studio album.
Blending a light dance shuffle with incisive lyrics and responses to her critics, the song celebrates the importance of self-acceptance and positive self-expression, and it’s sure to energize listeners and boost their confidence when sung at karaoke.
It especially underscores valuing your own worth and living life authentically.
For anyone belting out “yes, and?” at karaoke, it’s worth knowing that background and enjoying the song as a form of self-expression.
If you emulate Ariana’s polished vocals while adding your own interpretation, you’ll make the karaoke stage shine!
INDUSTRY BABYLil Nas X, Jack Harlow
One of the most-used tracks on TikTok, “INDUSTRY BABY,” is a hip-hop song by global stars Lil Nas X and Jack Harlow.
If you use TikTok, you’ve probably heard it at least once.
It’s not hardcore hip-hop; the chorus is crafted to be very melodic.
Above all, it’s such a famous song that being able to sing it will make you look cool on its own.
It’s not a difficult song, so definitely give it some practice.
ShiversEd Sheeran
Ed Sheeran, the singer-songwriter who represents the UK—many of you may have discovered him through the massive hit Shape of You, right? Shivers is one of his standout tracks, brilliantly blending a poppy, catchy side with a stylish edge.
Starting with the preceding release Bad Habits, he began shifting toward an electro-pop and synth-pop–driven style, so it looks like we can expect more and more cool tracks from him going forward.
