Karaoke-friendly Japanese songs recommended for women in their 50s (81–90)
Come, spring.Matsutōya Yumi
This was Yumi Matsutoya’s 26th single, released in October 1994.
Chosen as the theme song for the NHK morning drama of the same name, it became a huge hit and a million seller.
The vocal melody stays within a range that most women can sing without strain.
However, because the melody is centered in the lower to mid range, if you sing it in a mumbling way, the song’s charm won’t come through.
Be sure to use a soft yet confident tone.
Since it’s a Yumi Matsutoya song with her distinctive voice and delivery, it could also be fun to enjoy it with a bit of impersonation!
A Good Day to Set Out on a JourneyYamaguchi Momoe
The songs of Momoe Yamaguchi, a singer who represents the Showa era, remain timeless and can still be heard in many places today.
“Ii Hi Tabidachi,” which also made headlines when her eldest son, Yutaro Miura, released a cover album, is a song that appeals to people of all ages and genders.
With its mid-tempo pace and narrow vocal range, I think it’s easy to sing even for those with lower voices.
Mr. Summertimesaakasu
Circus’s signature song, “Mr.
Summertime.” Because this work is a Japanese-language cover of a song by a French artist, it has a distinctive groove not typically found in Japanese pop.
That said, it’s not a complex, Black music-style groove; the overall arrangement is tailored for Japanese audiences, so the difficulty level is quite low.
While the vocal range isn’t exactly narrow, the vocal lines have enough breathing room that you can prepare well for the gradually rising sections.
LOVE LOVE LOVEDREAMS COME TRUE
This is DCT’s signature song, Love Love Love.
The bittersweet lyrics and melody are irresistible, aren’t they? With this track, Dreams Come True sold over 2.48 million CDs, making it the best-selling single they’ve ever released.
It was the theme song for the drama “Say You Love Me,” starring Takako Tokiwa and Etsushi Toyokawa.
The vocal range is on the lower side, so it’s a song I’d love to hear sung in a sultry low register!
Sailor Suit and Machine Gun: ‘In the Midst of a Dream’Yakushimaru Hiroko
This is the theme song of the film Sailor Suit and Machine Gun starring Hiroko Yakushimaru.
With this movie and the song of the same title, Yakushimaru shot to stardom.
The film itself has been remade, and the song has been covered by Masami Nagasawa and Kanna Hashimoto, making it a timeless classic.
Yakushimaru’s voice—melancholic yet resolute—perfectly matches the story’s world.
