Started working as a music writer as a side job while employed at a record shop, and have been contributing to music magazines and web media for over 15 years. Although Western music is my main field, I always strive to stay curious with the motto, “I like what I like.” I have experience playing in a band, where I was a bassist responsible for songwriting and composition. Instruments I’ve performed on include bass, guitar, and piano. I resumed piano lessons after turning 40 and have been continuing ever since!

Those of you currently in your 40s are the generation who spent your youth in the 1990s to early 2000s, when CDs were selling explosively.

It was also the heyday of karaoke, and many of you likely have your go-to karaoke songs, but aiming for a high score can be tough—even with your favorites.

So in this article, we’ve researched recommendations for women in their 40s: songs that are relatively easy to sing and tend to yield higher scores.

Centered on hits and popular tracks from the ’90s through the 2000s, we’ve also included some recent masterpieces.

If you’ve got a karaoke outing coming up, be sure to use this as a reference!

Makoto Kawamoto, Talent for Love

Makoto Kawamoto, known as a pioneer among guitar-playing female singers, has left us with many great songs.

Among them, the one I especially recommend for women in their 40s because it’s easy to sing is “Ai no Sainō” (The Talent for Love).

Since singer-songwriter Yasuyuki Okamura composed it, the track leans a bit toward groove, but the vocal range is narrow, so the overall difficulty is fairly low.

If you lock into the rhythm, you can likely aim for a high score at karaoke.

Be sure to add it to your repertoire.
