For women in their 60s: Karaoke songs that score well | Classic nostalgic hits (1–10)
Pink sighMariko Takahashi
Mariko Takahashi’s classic “Momoiro Toiki.” It features a distinctly exotic melody and, while it carries elements of mood kayō (mood enka), it also incorporates contemporary J-pop characteristics.
The piece sits within a relatively narrow vocal range of mid1 G# to high C.
Since the most frequent pitch is around mid2 G#, most women should be able to sing it without difficulty.
As the song prioritizes mood, it’s recommended to sing with careful dynamics.
If a phrase ends with a consonant, letting it fade out as a voiceless sound can be an effective touch.
To Marie on Fifth AvenuePedro & Capricious
The classic “Gohbangai no Marie e” by Pedro & Capricious, released in 1973.
It’s from the period when Mariko Takahashi was the vocalist, and it’s still a song you often hear on TV today.
The piece sits within a typical female vocal range of mid1 E to high C.
The vocal line is gentle and easy to follow pitch-wise, and while the range itself isn’t difficult, the sustained higher notes from the middle of the chorus onward require a certain level of stamina.
Since the song doesn’t feature much low range, if you’re unsure about sustaining the high notes, try lowering the key by one or two semitones.
Playback Part 2Momoe Yamaguchi
Momoe Yamaguchi’s classic “Playback Part 2,” which gained nationwide popularity with its novel setting at a traffic accident scene.
While the song features a somewhat unconventional structure, including bold break points, it boasts exceptional singability thanks to its very narrow range of mid2 A# to Hi A#.
The tricky part is the section that enters the chorus after the late-stage break point, so be sure to count the beats carefully before you come in.
It’s a huge hit at karaoke, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

younger boyCandies
Candies’ hit song “Toshishita no Otoko no Ko” (“A Younger Boy”).
Its bright, quintessential Showa-era idol melody is really striking, isn’t it? For women in their 60s, it’s likely a real crowd-pleaser.
That said, the section just before the chorus in the B-melody can be a bit tricky—the pitch jumps up all at once, so if you find that part hard to sing, try adjusting the key up or down with a focus on that section.
Overall, it’s a mid-tempo piece that’s easy to sing, so add it to your repertoire and use it to liven up your next karaoke session.
Invisible ManPink Lady
Pink Lady’s classic hit “Invisible Man,” which made waves for its distinctive theme and lyrics.
Although the song exudes a very lively vibe, it was released early in their career, and its overall difficulty is relatively low.
In fact, the vocal range is fairly narrow, and the melody line isn’t complex.
Easy to sing yet guaranteed to get a crowd going, this track is perfectly suited as an upbeat number for women in their 60s.
sparrowKeiko Masuda
During her Pink Lady days, Keiko Masuda was known for her lively, energetic vocals, but as a solo artist she showcased a more sultry tone.
A great example of that alluring vocal style is Suzume.
The song sits within a narrow, low range—mid1 A# to mid2 G#—which is quite manageable even for male singers.
And while it’s low, the narrow range means there’s plenty of flexibility to adjust the key, so it should suit virtually any voice.
It’s perfect for karaoke to highlight both sensuality and fragility, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
Sentimental JourneyIyo Matsumoto
Matsumoto Iyo, who is currently active as a TV personality, enjoyed tremendous popularity during her idol days.
Many people probably have a strong impression of her song “Sentimental Journey,” right? In fact, this piece is more geared toward men, boasting a fairly low and wide vocal range of mid1 A to hi A#.
However, for women in their 60s, the lower notes are easier to produce, so those who naturally have higher voices will likely find it quite easy to sing.
