Sabrina Carpenter – Espresso (Official Audio)

Since this song was often used as BGM on TikTok and Reels, even people who aren’t into Western music have probably heard it, right? I also strongly associate it with playing over café and in-store background music! Plus, the song’s dance/nu-disco vibe makes it catchy and naturally makes your body move.

It’s under three minutes long, so take this opportunity to learn the full thing! It’s not a song where you belt, so beginners should be able to sing it lightly, almost like humming along.

The key is to sing with the rhythm.

In the latter half, a counter-melody comes in, so be careful not to get thrown off.
