Top 15 Karaoke Songs for Women
Song catalogs in karaoke bars are usually full of options across a variety of genres. With the advent of AI-powered online karaoke makers you can feed virtually any song, the choices have never been greater, maybe even endless.
However, not all songs can be sung by anyone. The strength of our voice, pitch, timbre, having a tuneful ear, vocal training, and many other factors influence how we can sing.
The gender of the performer often plays a role as well. Although women and men are (supposed to be) equal in rights, we do have a number of physiological differences which includes voice.
Let’s take a look at the list of easiest karaoke songs for women and learn why some of them fit female voices better.
How Female Voice Differs
In general, women speak and sing at a higher pitch than men – by about an octave. It’s caused by the difference in vocal cords and folds, men’s are longer and thicker than women’s due to testosterone.
During puberty, a surge of testosterone is released which elongates and thickens the muscle within vocal folds. As a result, the rather high childish voice of the boy breaks and becomes deeper over time. This doesn’t happen to girls.
Women’s Voice Types
A voice type is the classification system for a person’s vocal range or the range in which a voice is most comfortable. Women’s voices are divided into three groups:
1) Soprano, the highest female voice type.
2) Mezzo-soprano, the middle-range voice type.
3) Contralto, the lowest female voice type.
You may already have an idea of which type your voice is, but it never hurts to know for sure. This piece of information will make it easier for you to find the songs you can handle.
Try this test to determine your voice type and vocal range or take any other test of your liking, they are tons of options online.
