I won't fall in love anymore.Noriyuki Makihara
A signature song by Noriyuki Makihara, distinguished by its heartwarming melody that embraces both the ache of heartbreak and a brave front.
It gently portrays memories of a former lover and the nostalgia of everyday life, while the protagonist’s resolve to move forward resonates deeply with listeners.
Released in May 1992, it was chosen as the theme song for the NTV drama “After the Children Are Asleep.” Included on the album “Kimi wa Boku no Takaramono,” it became a major hit, ranking 7th on Oricon’s year-end chart.
This piece is a companion for those standing at life’s crossroads.
When you gather with friends for karaoke, its universally relatable lyrics and melody are sure to warm the heart.
In the night sky after the rainRC Succession
Sung by Kiyoshiro Imawano, often hailed as Japan’s King of Rock, this track is one of RC Succession’s signature songs, bursting with a sense of speed.
It’s a perfect classic for shaking off everyday hassles and bad moods, lifting your spirits no matter what.
Instead of stiffening up and trying to sing it perfectly, it’s a song that suits belting it out with full-on energy, so even those who aren’t confident singers may find it easy to try.
If you shout it out, you’ll feel totally refreshed and exhilarated.

seagullZen of the Wild Fox
If you’re a man in your 40s who likes rugged, manly songs, chances are you’ve listened to Yakōzen at least once.
It was the duo that Pistol Takehara—now active as a solo artist—used to belong to.
Their musical style is essentially the same as his current one: catchy melodies paired with hard-hitting lyrics.
Kamome is one of Yakōzen’s classic tracks.
It’s a passionate folk number with a very singable melody.
Since it doesn’t venture into high notes, focus solely on expressiveness when you sing it.
youthThe High-Lows
The Hi-Lows, the band that brought melodic punk to the masses.
Formed primarily by Hiroto Kōmoto and Masatoshi Mashima of The Blue Hearts, their sound is characterized by a more melodious take on punk than the Blue Hearts.
Among their songs, one that’s particularly easy to sing is Seishun (Youth).
Despite its lively vibe—which can be misleading—the song has a relatively narrow vocal range, so it suits a wide variety of voices.
It’s one of the easiest songs to sing within punk, so be sure to check it out.
Like a white cloudSaru Iwa Ishi
The comedy duo Saruganseki, made up of Hiroiki Ariyoshi and Kazunari Moriwaki.
The song that truly cemented their then idol-like popularity is, of course, Shiroi Yuki no Yō ni (Like White Snow).
As a composition, it’s a very orthodox J-pop number with a very narrow vocal range.
Since the two aren’t professional singers, the vocal lines present no real difficulty.
It’s also a crowd-pleaser at karaoke, so be sure to check it out.
I’ve just gotta polish my heartTOKIO
When it comes to TOKIO, many people strongly associate them with rock-tinged, masculine songs.
“Hato wo Migaku-kkya Nai” is a track where you can enjoy that rugged TOKIO vocal style, but the band elements are still relatively light, and overall it comes together with an older, Showa-era idol-like melody.
As a result, the vocal range is fairly narrow throughout, and there are no sections that require complex pitch jumps.
It’s easy to sing regardless of your vocal tone, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
Endless Road19
A song I’d recommend to men in their early 40s is Hatenonai Michi.
It’s a classic by the folk duo 19, who were hugely active in the 2000s.
Since it was a nationwide hit, many of you may remember it.
While the track is notable for its cutting-style guitar, the vocal line itself is crafted as catchy J-pop.
The chorus does feature falsetto, but the range is easily reachable in chest voice as well, so it’s not difficult as long as you choose an appropriate key.
Give it a try.
