[Women in Their 40s] Songs Even the Tone-Deaf Can Sing! Karaoke Tracks That Fit the Female Vocal Range (21–30)
The Ten CommandmentsAdo
When you think of Ado, her shouts in the mid-to-high range and the expressive high notes probably come to mind, right? While those aspects are certainly part of her appeal, her lower register actually holds a great deal of charm as well.
In her cover of Akina Nakamori’s classic “Jukkai (The Ten Commandments),” you can fully savor Ado’s rich low tones.
Since it’s an older song, the vocal line is very straightforward.
That simplicity leaves little room for the kinds of tricks you find in modern pop, but it also makes it easy to follow the pitch—so consider adding it to your repertoire.
I'm sorry…Mariko Takahashi
Ms.
Mariko Takahashi is a female singer who has remained at the forefront of the scene for many years.
Although she was active from the 1970s through the 1990s, her song “Gomen ne…” can be considered one that represents her work in the ’90s.
The piece features a vocal line close to kayōkyoku, making it generally easier to stay on pitch.
Also, as you’ll notice when you try singing it, there are no sustained notes in the mid-to-high range or above, so it’s a song that’s easy to sing even for those who find it difficult to hold high notes for long.
[Women in their 40s] Songs Even the Tone-Deaf Can Sing! Karaoke Tracks That Suit the Female Vocal Range (31–40)
Watarase BridgeChisato Moritaka
This is the 17th single by singer-songwriter Chisato Moritaka.
It was used as the theme song for the travel program “Ii Tabi Yume Kibun,” and is also known as the first single in which Moritaka, who is also recognized as a multi-instrumentalist, performed the instruments herself.
The lyrics tell a story of remembering a former lover, and they pair perfectly with Moritaka’s distinctive singing voice—many listeners may have felt a twinge of heartache hearing this song.
Its simple melody preserves the song’s atmosphere and makes it easy to sing at karaoke—an enduring classic.
fragileEvery Little Thing
The 17th single by Every Little Thing, known by the abbreviation ELT.
A signature song used as the theme for the dating reality show “Ainori,” it won the Excellence Award for Cable Music at the 34th Japan Cable Radio Awards and the Gold Award at the 43rd Japan Record Awards.
It may feel challenging due to the melodic leaps in the chorus, but the tempo is relaxed, so you’ll be fine if you sing calmly.
It’s a number I’d like women in their 40s—who likely heard it in real time, including on TV—to try singing at karaoke.
Love againglobe
People in their 40s are the generation that matched perfectly with the Komuro Sound, right? globe, in particular, was incredibly popular.
However, many of globe’s songs are quite high, and as we get older, a lot of their famous tracks can feel harder to sing.
That’s why I recommend Love again.
While it does have some high notes, its range is slightly narrower for a female song—roughly from mid1F to hiC.
Because of that, you can lower the key by a wider margin, making it easier to find your ideal key, and the pitch movement is relatively simple compared to other globe songs.
Tears aren't just for show.Akina Nakamori
Akina Nakamori’s 10th single overall, released in November 1984.
Lyrics and composition by Yosui Inoue.
Many people cite “not being able to hit high notes” as a reason they struggle with singing, but since this song was created for Nakamori—whose charm lies in her naturally lower voice—it doesn’t require extreme high notes.
That makes it an easy challenge even for those who aren’t good with high registers.
Reflecting the era in which it was released, the melody follows in the vein of Showa kayō and New Music, making it very easy to remember and sing.
It’s a great recommendation for people who feel they’re not good at singing!
LAT,43˚ N 〜Forty-three degrees north latitude〜DREAMS COME TRUE
One of the most popular musical units among women in their 40s is DREAMS COME TRUE.
Although they’ve produced many classic songs, they’re also known for having many high-difficulty tracks, which might make it hard to add them to your repertoire.
That’s why we recommend “LAT, 43˚ N — Forty-three Degrees North Latitude.” For a DCT song, the vocal range is quite narrow, and there aren’t any complex vocal lines.
There are relatively few breathing points, so just be mindful of that when you sing.
