Hiromi Go - I Can't Say It

Released in 1994 as Hiromi Go’s 66th single.

The song was used as the theme for the TBS drama “Omiai no Tatsujin” and as the ending theme for the Fuji TV show “Kamioka Ryūtarō ni wa Damasarenai zo!” It sold over 350,000 copies and became a long-running hit.

It is also one of the most popular ballads by Hiromi Go.

White LoversKeisuke Kuwata79rank/position

Keisuke Kuwata – Shiroi Koibito-tachi (Short ver.)

A gem of a ballad, richly expressing the bittersweet feelings of winter love, has been delivered by Keisuke Kuwata.

It’s a moving piece that looks back on warm memories of love, as if wrapped in snow, with a sense of blessing.

Rather than lamenting a past romance as a mere failure, it impressively celebrates the moments of that love from the heart.

Accompanied by a beautiful, resonant melody, it conveys a gentle warmth within the chill of winter.

Released in October 2001, the song was featured in a Coca-Cola commercial and sold 520,000 copies on the Oricon weekly chart.

It’s a perfect choice for winter karaoke with family and close friends when you want to share heartwarming memories.

Love Won’t Stop ~Turn it Into Love~Wink80rank/position

Love Won’t Stop ~Turn it Into Love~ / Wink [Official Music Video]

I think women in their 60s are a generation that has been exposed to a wide range of musical styles compared to other generations.

Songs from the 1960s to the 1980s are probably especially memorable, right? With that in mind, I recommend “Ai ga Tomaranai ~Turn it Into Love~.” Wink’s characteristically cool, emotionally restrained vocals actually make it easier to sing.

The vocal range is also narrow, so you should be able to sing it comfortably at a karaoke party after a reception.

Please consider adding it to your repertoire.

If I'm wrapped in kindnessYumi Arai81rank/position

Wrapped in Gentleness – Yumi Arai (Yumi Matsutoya)

It has a very gentle melody reminiscent of a Western nursery rhyme.

If you’re a woman in your 60s who feels “I’m not so good at karaoke…,” please give this song a try.

There’s one high note near the end of the chorus, but don’t worry too much about it—just have fun singing.

This song also gained attention as the ending theme of the Studio Ghibli film Kiki’s Delivery Service.

It’s a great choice for karaoke with small children, too.

FriendsRebecca82rank/position

People in their early 60s could be said to be the generation that lived right through the heart of the second band boom.

Among the bands that led that boom, Rebecca is likely a group many feel a deep attachment to.

Their song Friends is one of Rebecca’s best-known classics.

The vocal range is a typical mid2B to hiC, but because the highest note, hiC, appears frequently in the chorus, be sure to adjust the key so you can maintain sufficient volume.

Since it’s a famous song from the very intro, if you want to liven up a karaoke session, definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

Fall in LoveAkiko Kobayashi83rank/position

Fall in Love - Koibito ni Ochite by Akiko Kobayashi

It was the theme song for the TBS TV drama “To Wives on Friday III: Falling in Love.” Thanks to this drama, the term “Kin-tsuma” (Friday Wives) also became popular.

The song is slow-tempo and very easy to sing, but be aware that most of the second verse is in English.

If the setting isn’t too solemn, it might be fun to sing the English parts in your own style.

It’s a song that will definitely bring back memories, so please use it as background music when reminiscing.

Sake, Tears, Men, and WomenEigo Kawashima84rank/position

Eigo Kawashima – Sake, Tears, Men and Women

This song was included on Eigo Kawashima and Homo Sapiens’ debut album “Jinrui” (Humanity) and was released in 1976.

Written and composed by Eigo Kawashima, it was issued as a single the same year and used in a commercial for the sake brand Kizakura.

As one of Kawashima’s signature songs, it has been covered and passed down by many artists.
