Karaoke-friendly Japanese songs recommended for women in their 50s (41–50)
ONE SUMMER NIGHTMatsubara Miki
ONE SUMMER NIGHT is a song by Miki Matsubara that captures bittersweet memories of a summer night.
Its pop, melodious arrangement blends with her clear, translucent vocals to deeply move listeners.
Released in 1982, the composition was by Yuichiro Oda, and the track is included on the album SEE・SAW.
The lyrics portray a fleeting summer romance and are likely to resonate with women in their 50s.
While it has a somewhat Western pop flavor, the vocal line is relatively simple among songs of that style, so if you’re looking for an easy-to-sing city pop number, give this one a try.
DiamondsPRINCESS PRINCESS
Princess Princess, who skyrocketed to fame in 1988, were pioneers of the all-girl rock band scene and gained popularity under the nickname Puri-Puri.
They have many hit songs, but here I’d like to recommend “DIAMONDS,” an upbeat, surefire crowd-pleaser.
Be sure to join in with the call-and-response during the chorus!
RASPBERRY DREAMRebekka
Rebecca’s fifth single overall, released in May 1986.
Since it made the Top 10 on the charts at the time—and with the band boom in full swing—there are probably many women now in their 50s (as of 2022, when this was written) who covered and sang this song in bands.
The song itself has a very singable, easy-to-remember melody, so it might be fun for everyone present to break into a big chorus during the hook! Definitely select this one and enjoy.
Cotton HandkerchiefŌta Hiromi
A 1975 number by Hiromi Ohta that gained popularity with lyrics portraying a devoted girlfriend left behind in her hometown, worried about the boyfriend who headed off to the big city.
With Hiromi Ohta’s girlishly cute voice showing such concern, he must be delighted! As you look back on your own bittersweet romances from those days, try singing it as sweetly as any youngster!
LieYaita Hitomi
Hitomi Yaida’s classic “Uso” (Lie).
It’s a well-known song, so for many people, when they think of a ballad by her, this is the one that comes to mind first.
The track’s appeal lies in its very relaxed tempo.
While Yaida often writes songs with a wide vocal range, this piece has a narrower range and gentle pitch movement.
There are moments of falsetto, but she’s intentionally using falsetto for notes that could easily be sung in chest voice, so even those who aren’t confident in their range can sing it without difficulty.
