Underrated Romantic Karaoke Duets : for Beginners

Love Songs for Karaoke Newbies

contemporary music for duets

As a fan of karaoke, I’ve found many great love songs for two that are easy for newbies. I suggest starting with “Meet in the Middle” for its easy-going verse swap, or “Pictures” by Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow for its simple story line. If you like Motown, try “If I Could Build My Whole World Around You” – it feels like a nice chat. New hits like “Lucky” by Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat have easy vocal ranges, while “Summer Nights” has clear parts for both singers. These lesser-known songs can help you shine without pushing your voice too hard, and there are many more to find.

Country Love Songs Worth Finding

  • “When You Say Nothing at All” by Keith Whitley (or the Alison Krauss version) has easy lines that repeat.
  • “It’s Your Love” by Tim McGraw and Faith Hill has comfy vocal ranges for both.
  • “Meet in the Middle” by Diamond Rio lets you swap verses easily.
  • “Die a Happy Man” by Thomas Rhett works well as a duet, letting you split verses and come together for the chorus.
  • “Remember When” by Alan Jackson with its talking style is forgiving for new singers.

These songs offer clear tunes and real feelings, letting you connect with your partner without battling tricky singing parts.
