So in this list of most popular karaoke songs of 2016, we decided to tackle all of the “singable” songs of last year – the greatest chartbusters that are a sure winner on the karaoke floor! Alternatively, one can also choose one of the 10 Most Popular Karaoke Songs of All Time that never fail to bring the party to the house no matter how many time they are repeated.

We put together the current list by choosing the top tracks of 2016 according to the authoritative charts of Billboard and Official Charts and rated them on parameters that make them the most suitable for karaoke singing. While some songs can be the number 1 hits for the longest time, they are not always fit for karaoke singing. Karaoke singing often requires special songs that are catchy or memorable, or in other words “singable”. So we rated the top songs of 2016 as per their “singability” and added extra points for the presence of a hook, a memorable melody, relatable lyrics, ease of singing, and the groove or energy of the songs. Sometimes the “X” factor of the songs can play the biggest role in making a song a karaoke hit!
