Karaoke songs recommended for women in their 60s that are easy to sing even for those who are tone-deaf (11–20)
cosmos (flower)Momoe Yamaguchi
Momoe Yamaguchi’s 19th single, released in October 1977.
At the time, Yamaguchi was actively collaborating with musicians from the so-called ‘new music’ scene that was breaking out in Japan.
For this song, Masashi Sada handled both the lyrics and composition.
To emphasize the song’s gentle, soft atmosphere, the original chorus features extensive use of falsetto (head voice).
To sing this song in the original key, mastering how effectively you can use falsetto will likely be the key point.
Incidentally, Yamaguchi herself would lower the key when performing on music shows.
If possible, it’s a song you’ll want to practice a bit of falsetto for and try singing in the original key with a focus on capturing the mood.
Let's get married.Takuro Yoshida
Takuro Yoshida’s classic song “Let’s Get Married.” In the folk scene, there were artists who prioritized lyrics and those who emphasized catchy melodies, and Yoshida was the latter.
This masterpiece of his features a relatively simple, easy-to-sing vocal line compared to his other works.
Its catchy structure and melody make it a staple in guitar instruction books, and it’s perfectly singable for women as well.
Consider adding it to your repertoire.
Give Up on SummerNaoko Ken
Naoko Ken’s classic “Natsu wo Akiramete.” People nowadays might mistakenly think it’s a Southern All Stars song, but for women in their 60s, it probably feels more like a Naoko Ken track.
Unlike the Southern version, this one is characterized by a languid, sensual vocal delivery.
To capture the flavor of the original, a slightly husky, weathered voice tends to sound better than a purely beautiful tone.
If the pitch feels a bit high, try lowering the key by one semitone.
JunMariko Takahashi
Mariko Takahashi’s classic song “Jun.” It’s a piece that portrays a heartbreak with a man named Jun, and the melody is just unbearably, achingly sad.
From a musical perspective, however, the song features a very singable vocal line, so it’s well worth remembering if you aim for the emotive vocal style of Showa-era pop.
The contrast between the chorus and the verse is very clear, making it a great recommendation for those who want an easy-to-sing piece to train their dynamics.
Be sure to add it to your repertoire.
chaosRumiko Koyanagi
Rumiko Koyanagi’s classic “Ran.” She has produced numerous masterpieces, but this piece can be said to showcase her sensuality most vividly.
It was composed by Koji Tamaki, who colored the music scene of the 1980s.
True to Tamaki’s style, the song features a vocal line imbued with allure, yet its foundation remains firmly in Showa-era kayōkyoku, so you’ll likely find it surprisingly easy to sing in practice.
If the brief high note that appears in the chorus feels tough, try boldly raising the key and singing that part in falsetto.
Marilyn in 1986Minako Honda
Minako Honda won popularity for her truly accomplished singing ability that you wouldn’t expect from an idol.
Even among women in their 60s who dislike idols, many say they make an exception for her.
Speaking of her signature songs, it has to be 1986 no Marilyn.
For an idol of that era, it had a decidedly mature tone, and its sultriness even connects to the mood-kayo (mood ballad) style.
While there are sections with somewhat drastic pitch jumps, the overall range is on the narrow side, so most women should be able to sing it without issue.
Karaoke songs recommended for women in their 60s that are easy to sing even for the tone-deaf (21–30)
Detective StoryHiroko Yakushimaru
The classic film “Detective Story,” starring Hiroko Yakushimaru.
This piece was released as the movie’s theme song.
When it comes to Hiroko Yakushimaru’s vocals, her enveloping, gentle voice is distinctive, and this song showcases exactly that.
Overall, the vocal line has little fluctuation, and the range is kept relatively narrow.
It may feel slightly high, but you can handle that with key adjustment, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
