Women: Popular Western Music Karaoke Rankings [2025]

U Can’t Touch ThisMC Hammer85rank/position

M.C. Hammer – U Can’t Touch This

MC Hammer’s signature song “U Can’t Touch This” was a huge hit in Japan as well.

Not only the track but also the dance was something everyone copied at the time.

In particular, people now in their 40s might feel nostalgic and get excited about things like Takaaki Ishibashi of Tunnels appearing as “MC Taka” together with MC Hammer himself.

Jason Mraz – I’m Yours (Official Video) [4K Remaster]

The song is a bit rap-like, with words coming fast, so it may seem difficult, but if you learn the lyrics properly and give it a shot, you’ll be fine.

If you can sing it well, it’s one of those songs that looks cool.

The key is a bit high for men, so I think it’s just about right in chest voice for women in their 40s.

Karma ChameleonCulture Club87rank/position

Culture Club – Karma Chameleon (Official Music Video)

A signature song by Culture Club, led by Boy George, who wore a distinctive and eccentric fashion style (but it suited him perfectly and looked great).

The chorus is so catchy you’ll find yourself humming it after just one listen.

The lyrics are simple and the vocal range is narrow, making it easy for anyone to sing and enjoy in a light, casual way.

Extreme – More Than Words (Official Music Video)

Because it’s a slow-tempo song with few key changes throughout, it’s easy for people in their 40s to sing.

It’s also in a male key, so it’s easier even for those who find it hard to hit higher notes lately.

If you practice harmonizing with a friend, it will sound more authentic and make the song even more enjoyable.
