Songs for women in their 30s to sing: A roundup from the ’90s to ’00s (11–20)

frecklesJUDY AND MARY

3. Freckles – JUDY AND MARY – The Power Source – 1997 – JAM
Freckles JUDY AND MARY

A classic by JUDY AND MARY that colors the days of youth.

Its appeal lies in the high-velocity, up-tempo melody and catchy lyrics about the strength to overcome heartbreak.

Released in February 1996, this song is also known as the theme song for the anime Rurouni Kenshin.

It was included on the album THE POWER SOURCE and achieved an astonishing 2.

8 million in sales.

YUKI’s distinctive vocals leave a strong impression, and at around three minutes long, it’s easy to sing along to.

Highly recommended for women who want to appeal to men who love rock.

This song might be the spark that gets you both excited talking about rock music!

Ayumi Hamasaki / fairyland (Short Ver.)
fairyland Ayumi Hamasaki

Ayumi Hamasaki’s classic “fairyland.” Because it’s a very upbeat song, many women in their 30s may avoid it thinking it’s too high, but surprisingly the vocal range isn’t that wide; it stays within mid1F to hiD.

What makes it easy to sing isn’t just that—the tempo is slightly slow at BPM 112, and the pitch movement is fairly consistent.

If you carefully track the pitch, you can aim for a high score at karaoke without any issues, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.

GIRL NEXT DOOR / The Probability of Coincidence
The chance encounter girl next door

GIRL NEXT DOOR was a dance-vocal unit active in the 2000s.

They embodied the so-called Avex sound and were championed by Masato Matsuura, the renowned executive director of Avex.

One of their hit songs, Guuzen no Kakuritsu (Probability of Coincidence), is characterized by its up-tempo feel with elements of techno and Italo disco.

Although it’s up-tempo, the vocal range is relatively narrow—mid1 G# to hi D—so with a key adjustment it should be quite singable.

Additionally, because of its techno/Italo-disco style, the vocal lines are fairly uniform at times, which also makes it exceptionally easy to sing.

DOLLSCANDAL

SCANDAL is a girls’ rock band that gained immense popularity in the late 2000s.

Even now, as a representative girls’ rock band, they continue to churn out hit numbers from time to time.

Among their songs, “DOLL” is likely a deeply nostalgic track for women in their 30s.

This piece covers a relatively narrow vocal range of mid1 G# to hi D, and its vocal lines have gentle rises and falls, making it exceptionally easy to sing.

Shangri-LaChatmonchy

Shangri-La Chatmonchy

Chatmonchy is a girls’ band that gained popularity in the 2000s with a sound rooted in pop rock and indie rock.

If you’re a woman in your 30s who likes Japanese rock, you probably listened to their songs quite a bit.

Among Chatmonchy’s tracks, the one I especially recommend is Shangri-La.

The song’s lowest note is mid2 C and the highest note is hi D#, but the hi D# appears only once, and the main high phrases are built around hi C.

While it is a high-pitched song, the range isn’t wide, so if you lower the key appropriately, it should be quite singable.

youKumi Koda

Kumi Koda / “you” (from the new album “WINTER of LOVE”)
you Koda Kumi

For women in their late 30s, Ayumi Hamasaki is the quintessential diva, but for those in their early 30s, many would probably name Kumi Koda.

Speaking of Kumi Koda, her charm lies in her low tones that make use of rich overtones, and “you” is a track that fully showcases those lows.

The vocal range sits at mid1E to hiB, which is relatively low and suits male vocalists, but since the overall range isn’t particularly wide, there’s no issue with raising the key to adjust.

As for the falsetto in the chorus, a light mixed voice is more than enough to produce it.

Overall, it’s an easy song to sing, so consider adding it to your repertoire.

Songs for Women in Their 30s to Sing: 1990s–2000s (21–30)

scene of carnage; chaotic situation; crisis (literally: battlefield of asuras)Tokyo Incidents

Tokyo Incidents – The Battlefield (Shuraba)
Shuraba Tokyo Jihen

Tokyo Jihen is a band that has consistently produced hit numbers and classic songs up to the present day.

Their single ‘Shuraba’ is their third release, and unlike their earlier rock-leaning sound, it features a jazzy, decadent melody with a kayōkyoku-like flavor that aligns more closely with their current musical style.

Although the vocal range is fairly wide (mid1F to hiF), the piece is relatively easy to sing because the vocal line is simple and the lyrics are sparse.

The impassive, mechanical vocal delivery also means it doesn’t demand much expressive nuance, which further contributes to its singability.
