British singer Dua Lipa, who is not only active as an artist but also popular as a model, is nothing short of an icon for women in their teens and twenties around the world.

Her hit song “We’re Good,” released in February 2021, gained popularity with its downbeat melody that marked a significant departure from her previous style.

With a 1920s theme, the work is appealing not for straightforward simplicity, but for a cool, classic atmosphere that gives it a distinctive charm.

Ed Sheeran, a singer-songwriter from the UK who has continued to gain worldwide popularity since his early-2010s debut.

He hadn’t been very active recently, but he’s finally dropped a new release.

The standout I especially recommend is Eyes Closed.

It’s a calm pop track with a tropical house vibe that he excels at.

The vocal range isn’t very wide, so it should be easy for Japanese singers to perform.

If you can add a shout at the start of the chorus, the atmosphere will ramp up instantly—so give it a try.

Released in August 2023, it received high acclaim worldwide, including becoming her first No.

1 on the UK charts.

Her striking performance at the MTV Video Music Awards also drew attention.

It’s an energetic track recommended for anyone looking to feel more confident in their self-expression.

It achieved international success, ranking No.

2 in Vietnam and No.

If you sing it at karaoke, the key is to lock into the rhythm and pour your emotions into the performance.

Among Silk Sonic’s works, a track that’s especially cool if you can pull it off is “Smokin Out The Window.” Its sound blends 1970s neo-soul and disco, so if you can sing it well, it’s sure to hype up the crowd.
