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.
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.
IT’S ALL RIGHTMaki Ohguro
For women in their 40s, when it comes to singer-songwriters who give you courage and energy, isn’t Maki Ohguro the first name that comes to mind? She’s released many classic songs, but among them, the one I especially recommend as easy to sing is “IT’S ALL RIGHT.” It’s renowned as a hidden gem: despite its sharp, powerful vocals, the vocal line has a narrow range and relatively few ups and downs.
Many people may find it surprisingly easy to sing.
Definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.
Become the windAyano Tsuji
Ayano Tsuji is a popular singer-songwriter who made her major debut in 1999 with a signature style of gentle, instantly recognizable vocals and ukulele-accompanied performances.
Since the 2000s, she has continued to release a string of heartwarming classics in the J-POP scene, maintaining a unique position.
Tsuji’s music has a soothing quality just by listening, and one of her signature songs, Kaze ni Naru, which was used as the theme song for the Studio Ghibli film The Cat Returns, is widely known and a great pick for karaoke where people of all ages gather.
Its very straightforward melody makes it easy to sing, so it’s perfect for aiming for a high score at karaoke—and singing it together as a parent and child is sure to be fun, too!
Hello, my friendYumi Matsutoya
As one of the most important artists in Japanese music history, Yuming—Yumi Matsutoya—is a name that invariably comes up.
Each generation has songs by Yuming that hold special meaning, but many women in their 40s today will likely think of her hits from the 1990s.
From the standpoint of being easy to sing at karaoke, I recommend Hello, my friend.
Released in 1994 as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama Kimi to Ita Natsu (A Summer with You), it was a massive hit that sold over a million copies.
While it’s packed with that quintessential Yuming flavor, the melody unfolds very straightforwardly and is easy to sing.
There are no particularly challenging high notes or sustained long notes, so with a bit of practice, you can probably expect a high score at karaoke.
I want to be happy.Yuki Uchida
Yuki Uchida has been active as an actress for many years.
Younger people might not know this, but for many women in their 40s, she also leaves a strong impression as a musical artist.
Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is “Shiawase ni Naritai” (“I Want to Be Happy”).
While the melody has some noticeable rises and falls, the overall tempo is relaxed, so you should be able to follow the pitch without trouble.
The vocal range is also narrow, making it a good choice to sing even when your voice is starting to tire at a second party.
Be sure to check it out.
SNOW DANCEDREAMS COME TRUE
DREAMS COME TRUE has produced many masterpieces.
For women in their 30s, they’re an artist that really resonates with their generation.
Among their works, the one I especially recommend for women with lower voices is SNOW DANCE.
Compared to many DREAMS COME TRUE songs, which tend to have wide vocal ranges, this track falls on the narrower side, and its vocal lines are gently contoured.
Because the dynamics are clearly defined, if you sing with a conscious sense of when to hold back, it will sound professional.
Give it a try for reference.
