Message of RougeMatsutōya Yumi
Rouge no Dengon, a famous song by Yumi Arai released in 1975, is a work that embodies the cheerful vibe of 1970s Japanese pop music, maintaining a bright and gentle tone throughout.
The vocal range is typical of Japanese pop, with a lowest note of mid1 G and a highest note of hi C.
Since the hi C appears twice in the chorus, if you’re not comfortable with falsetto, it’s a good idea to lower the key with this section in mind.
It’s a big hit at karaoke, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
Sand Castlesaitou yuki
Actress Yuki Saito, who captivated many men as a femme fatale, also gained popularity as a singer and produced numerous hit numbers.
Her song “Suna no Shiro” can be considered a relatively minor work among her hits.
Because singing isn’t her main profession, many of her songs have simple vocal lines, yet many people felt they were unexpectedly difficult due to her high voice.
This song is different.
While her voice is indeed high, the range is narrow, so as long as you adjust the key, even women in their 50s who find high notes difficult can sing it without problems.
FriendsRebekka
Rebecca, which was a forerunner of the band boom, is surely a group many feel deeply attached to.
Their song Friends is one of their best-known classics.
The vocal range is a typical mid2B to hiC, but since the highest note, hiC, appears frequently in the chorus, be sure to adjust the key so you can maintain solid volume.
It’s a famous piece from the intro, so if you want to liven up a karaoke session, definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.
Stars on EarthNakajima Miyuki
Miyuki Nakajima’s powerful vocals are perfectly matched with the majestic sound.
This work gently illuminates the presence of people who usually go unnoticed yet live earnestly, likening them to “stars.” Released in July 2000 as the theme song for NHK’s popular documentary series “Project X: Challengers,” it gradually drew attention alongside the program’s broadcast.
At the 2002 Kōhaku Uta Gassen, it was performed via a live relay from the Kurobe Dam and achieved the highest singer-specific viewership rating of the show.
Aim for dynamic, powerful singing like Miyuki Nakajima’s.
Fade OutKoizumi Kyoko
Among those in their early 50s, many may have admired Kyoko Koizumi’s looks and personality.
In that case, I recommend Fade Out.
This work is characterized by the heavy synthesizers that were common in the late ’80s.
You might perceive it as dance music, but the vocal line is gentle, like a blend of kayōkyoku and jazz, so it should be easy to sing.
The very long rests also make it easy to perform.

Return to MyselfHamada Mari
Mari Hamada, the female artist who sparked a pop-rock boom in Japan.
Known for her vibrant vocals, she has produced numerous classics with her upbeat rock sound.
Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is Return to Myself.
It’s a powerful track, yet the vocal range isn’t very wide, and the melodic leaps aren’t extreme.
For women in their 50s, whose lower to mid register tends to gain richness, it’s an especially singable song.
Don’t take off my sailor uniformo nyanko kurabu
For women in their 50s—the focus of this piece—this is probably a no-brainer: the Onyanko Club’s debut single.
Onyanko Club could be called the pioneer of the “idols next door,” a concept that connects to today’s AKB as well.
Many of you probably dreamed of becoming a member, didn’t you? You don’t need any special vocal skills to sing this song! It’s an easy, very singable tune that’s like a textbook example of an ’80s idol song, so bring back those memories, add the choreography, and sing it together to get the crowd going!
