When you sing Western songs at karaoke, your song choice can make people question your taste.

But if you pick a song nobody knows, it won’t get the crowd going, and choosing a dark song will also kill the vibe.

So, since everyone knows hard rock, please sing this famous karaoke hit.

Born This WayLady Gaga

Lady Gaga – Born This Way (Official Music Video)

We’ve introduced various artists, but even so, I think the most popular Western karaoke song among Japanese women is probably this one by Lady Gaga.

Its message, melody, singability, and even her persona—everything about it is perfect.

It’s also well-known enough that there’s practically no one who wouldn’t recognize it when you sing it at karaoke.

Blood Sweat & TearsBTS

BTS (방탄소년단) ‘피 땀 눈물 (Blood Sweat & Tears)’ Official MV

A song by a charismatic Korean boy group.

In Western karaoke, it’s categorized under Korean.

It has more words similar to Japanese than English does, and the word order is the same.

This song sings about a guy who’s totally hooked on a queen-like girlfriend.

In the chorus, be sure to convey the feeling that he’s completely captivated—body and soul—by her.

K-pop fans will definitely get hyped, and it also works great as a crowd-pleasing Western karaoke pick!

If switching straight from Japanese songs to Western karaoke feels like too big a leap, there’s also a strategy of easing in by singing English songs from K-pop idols as a middle ground.

They’re basically like English tracks by Japanese groups, but because of the differences between Japanese and Korean, their English tends to sound more authentic.

You can take advantage of that and apply it to your karaoke practice.

Definitely crank this song at karaoke when you’re having a party and get the whole crowd pumped up.

The signature song of that girls’ unit, which made headlines in Japan for various reasons.

Blending rock and electronic elements, the track is simple outside the chorus, yet it builds perfectly toward the hook, lifting your mood and evoking memories of youth.

I think many people who sing Western songs at karaoke are older.

This super-popular idol group is older compared to today’s popular idols like One Direction, but they have a lot of great songs.

If you’re going to sing Western music for the first time, I’m sure it will liven up the mood.
