The Best Beyonce Karaoke Songs
“Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)”
Everyone has tried to do the iconic dance to this song at least once in their life.
An uptempo, dance-pop number, “Single Ladies” is about men’s unwillingness to commit to a serious relationship, which is pretty ironic considering the single was also seen as Beyonce’s and Jay-Z’s couple announcement.
It has everything you could ask for in a song—a catchy tune, a fun dance, and amazing vocals—that will definitely get everyone hyped up.
“Crazy in Love” (Feat. Jay-Z)
In the mood to do some crazy dancing? Then this high-energy smash hit is perfect for you!
Infusing elements of pop, hip-hop, and soul, “Crazy in Love” is about a woman’s romantic obsession that causes her to act out of character.
With an energetic rhythm and fast-paced lyrics, this song is really fun to sing at karaoke with a friend, even if it leaves you two out of breath at the end.
“Irreplaceable”
Originally written from a male perspective by R&B artist Ne-Yo, this empowering track took a different turn when it was given to Beyonce instead.
“Irreplaceable” became her ultimate kiss-off track as she says goodbye to a manipulative partner.
The song became incredibly successful after its debut in 2006, topping music charts worldwide.
Featuring a catchy melody and powerful lyrics, this is the best song choice for anyone who wants to break away from an unhappy relationship.
“Sweet Dreams”
This upbeat, electropop number is another one of Beyonce’s tracks that made the 2000s awesome.
Released in 2009, the song explores a romantic relationship too good to be true that the female protagonist assumes it might be a dream.
With Beyonce’s slinky vocals and synth-infused melody, this fast-paced track has a dramatic flair that makes it perfect for dancing.
Even if you can’t keep up with the song’s energy, everyone will be too busy partying out to it to notice.
“Love on Top”
Released in 2011, this cheerful pop single is a love letter to 1980s music, inspired by Beyonce’s state of mind while she was listening to Etta James.

As fun as this track is, it has four key changes and a high register toward the end, so you might want to practice first before attempting to take it to the stage.
“If I Were a Boy”
Sometimes we wish we could live the life of someone else.
This 2008 ballad goes introspective by addressing the double standards that exist between men and women.
