[Women in their 40s] Songs Even the Tone-Deaf Can Sing! Karaoke Tracks That Suit the Female Vocal Range (81–90)
Gentle RainKyoko Koizumi
Kyoko Koizumi’s classic song “Yasashii Ame” (“Gentle Rain”).
Released in 1994, it gained popularity for its sentimental lyrics and sweet melody.
It’s crafted like a quintessential 1990s ballad, kept at a slow tempo throughout.
While the vocal range isn’t exactly narrow, the high notes appear only briefly, so even those who struggle with higher registers can sing it comfortably.
There aren’t many long sustained notes either, which is nice because it still sounds polished even if you can’t do vibrato.
A flower blooming in joyACO
ACO is a female singer-songwriter who gained popularity for her trip-hop-centered musical style.
Many women in their 40s may have discovered her through her guest appearance on Dragon Ash’s classic track “Grateful Days.” Among ACO’s songs, the one I especially recommend is “Yorokobi ni Saku Hana” (“A Flower Blooming in Joy”).
While the vocals are sentimental, the melody line is unexpectedly even and subdued, with a fairly narrow range, making it easy to sing regardless of your vocal timbre.
Be sure to give it a listen.
My pager doesn’t beep anymoreMuri Kunitake
Mari Kunitake, who was active as a singer and model.
She’s what you might call a one-hit wonder, but many people probably still remember her.
Speaking of her hit song, of course it has to be “Pokeberu ga Naranakute” (“My Pager Doesn’t Ring”).
Released as the theme song for a drama of the same name, this piece is arranged as a ballad, with a vocal line that has little fluctuation and is very easy to sing.
Many of you likely watched the drama at the time, so consider adding this song to your repertoire.
Study SongChisato Moritaka
Actress Chisato Moritaka, who gained popularity from the 1980s to the 1990s.
She has left behind many classic songs as a singer as well, but among them, the one I especially recommend to women in their 40s is Study Song.
As the title suggests, it’s literally a song that encourages studying, and for women in their 40s who were students back then, it may be particularly memorable.
Since this piece isn’t a song performed by a professional singer, the vocal line is calm and relatively even, without many ups and downs.
The vocal range is also quite narrow, so it should be easy enough to sing even at a third-round after-party.
Azure RabbitNoriko Sakai
Noriko Sakai, affectionately known as Nori-P, has also been active as a singer and has left behind several classic songs.
Among them, the one I especially recommend for women in their 40s as an easy song to sing is Aoi Usagi (Blue Rabbit).
Incorporating elements of kayōkyoku, it features a mellow, distinctly Japanese melody throughout that’s easy to sing.
In addition, there are no high-register parts, so women in their 40s should be able to sing it without difficulty.
If you like mature melodies, be sure to give this song a try.
LOVE MachineMorning Musume
Morning Musume, the group that energized the early-2000s idol boom, is often surprisingly underestimated, but their songs are musically quite fascinating and incorporate underground influences from the time.
Among them, “LOVE Machine” is a remarkable work that distills funk and disco into techno and pop.
While rooted in Black music, the vocal lines retain a J-pop-style catchiness and are sung within a narrow range throughout.
Even women with lower voices should be able to sing it without issue.

SWEET MEMORIESSeiko Matsuda
Seiko Matsuda is an idol who represents the 1980s—one of Japan’s most iconic idols.
She has left behind numerous classic songs, and among them I especially recommend “SWEET MEMORIES.” It’s one of her signature ballads.
Although the long note at the end of the chorus is a bit high, the song basically has a narrow vocal range.
It might not suit those who struggle with the English parts, but if that’s not an issue, it’s a song that can fit any type of voice.
