Dua Lipa’s iconic hit “Don’t Start Now,” known for its groovy bassline.

For many, this song was their introduction to her.

With its strikingly groove-rich melodic structure, the vocal line is kept simple to highlight the strength of the instrumentation.

The vocal range is particularly narrow—so much so that even male singers should have no trouble with it.

There are also no difficult sustained high notes.

It’s undeniably a popular number that’s easy to sing.

EspressoSabrina Carpenter

Sabrina Carpenter’s masterpiece “Espresso.” Sabrina Carpenter is known for having a lot of sexual innuendo, and this track also features many double entendres woven throughout.

Matching that content, the vocal line is quiet and sultry, yet it’s surprisingly simple.

First worth noting is its narrow range.

It’s kept within a range that anyone—regardless of gender—can sing, and there aren’t any complex vocal techniques centered on riffs or runs.

Without a doubt, for a trending song, it falls into the easy-to-sing category.

A nostalgic melody that evokes progressive house and turn-of-the-millennium trance…

In particular, the intense lead in the chorus brings to mind the era of peak EDM, like Swedish House Mafia’s “One.” Working backward from that, darkening the instrument timbres to add a mysterious vibe gives you future house.

This track perfectly embodies that atmosphere.
