[2025] A Collection of Classic Enka and Kayōkyoku Duets by Women

When you hear the term “duet song,” most of you probably think of songs sung by a man and a woman.

In Japan in particular, duet songs are strongly associated with mood-rich numbers in the realms of Showa-era kayōkyoku and enka, themed around romantic relationships between men and women.

So this time, I’ve deliberately limited the scope to enka and kayōkyoku and compiled a list of duets performed by two women.

What I discovered through my research is that there are very few songs that fit this category.

That rarity gives them special value, so please also take a look at what themes the lyrics of enka and kayōkyoku duets sung by two women tend to explore.
