Karaoke Songs That Are Easy to Sing for Men in Their 50s (31–40)
I’m smitten with you.Yellow Magic Orchestra
Yellow Magic Orchestra, a group that gained popularity with their innovative electronic music.
This song, “Kimi ni, Mune Kyun,” was composed from the perspective of the members—who were providing hit numbers to idols at the time—thinking, “If we can keep churning out idol hits, then in theory we could also become popular as ‘middle-aged idols.
’” As a result, it’s crafted with a catchy, somewhat cute melody.
With a narrow vocal range and a relatively even vocal line, it’s also a very easy song to sing.
SPARKTHE YELLOW MONKEY
This is a rock number by THE YELLOW MONKEY that sings of passionate love.
It paints a worldview where you close your eyes and share a space with the night, and within its sensual expressions lies a pure heart wishing for eternal love.
The energetic guitar riffs and rhythm section leave a strong impression, and Kazuya Yoshii’s distinctive vocals resound over the dynamic sound.
Released in July 1996, the song drew attention as the theme for the Fuji TV drama “Handsome Man.” It was also included on the album “SICKS” and reached No.
3 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart.
It’s a perfect song for enjoying karaoke with friends, full of a charm that lets everyone open their hearts and sing along.
ChinatownEikichi Yazawa
Eikichi Yazawa has produced many classic songs over the years.
There are likely many men in their 60s who have been fans since the Carol era.
Among his tracks, one I especially recommend is Chinatown.
The song’s vocal range is relatively narrow, from mid1 B to mid2 G#.
If you’re just following the pitch, it should be quite manageable.
However, because Yazawa employs a shout-infused singing style, trying to imitate that can make the difficulty skyrocket.
So, rather than sticking too closely to the original, aim to sing it in a comfortable key for you.
TownscapeYutaka Ozaki
Yutaka Ozaki’s song “Townscape” vividly portrays the sterile atmosphere of the city and the loneliness of youth.
With most of the song arranged in a low register—aside from part of the chorus—it’s easy to sing even for those who are older.
The track is included on the 1983 album “Seventeen’s Map.” Despite being his debut album, it was highly acclaimed, reaching No.
2 on the Oricon charts.
When you’re worn out by everyday life or feel like you’re losing sight of life’s meaning, why not give this song a listen? You’re sure to find new hope.
Boy in the back alleyShogo Hamada
Shogo Hamada’s debut single, released in April 1976.
Since then, several remade versions have been released.
If you’re in your 50s, you’ve probably heard it at least once—it’s a classic of Showa-era Japan! I still clearly remember how deeply I connected with the lyrics when I first heard the song.
The vocal melody is very easy to remember and sing, so I hope you’ll enjoy singing it along with memories of your younger days!

It conveys a love so intense it keeps you awake at night, expressed through passionate lyrics and melody.
The protagonist’s once-in-a-lifetime feelings are sure to stir memories of bittersweet love that many have experienced.

It was also featured in a Toyota Corolla Ceres commercial and has become a karaoke staple loved by many.
It’s the perfect track to share with close friends or colleagues as you reminisce and look back together on life’s milestones.
TSUNAMISouthern All Stars
Known as a masterpiece that likens the pain of heartbreak to a tsunami, this work is a moving love song celebrated as one of Southern All Stars’ signature pieces.
It’s a gem of a ballad that expresses the sorrow of losing someone dear through a grand melody, fully showcasing Keisuke Kuwata’s exceptional songwriting and composing talent.
Released in January 2000, it topped the Oricon weekly charts and won the Japan Record Award the same year.
It was also selected as the theme song for the popular segment “Mirai Nikki III” on the TV program “U-nan no Hontoko!,” becoming a classic beloved across generations.
As a heartwarming song that offers comfort to those carrying the pain of losing someone special, it’s also highly recommended for karaoke.
