Karaoke-friendly Japanese songs recommended for women in their 50s (141–150)
lover; mistress; extramarital partnerTeresa Ten
Teresa Teng left us with many timeless songs.
For women in their late 50s, many of her hits are likely cherished memories of their youth.
Among them, the one I especially recommend is Lover.
Many people may have resonated with its lyrics, which poignantly depict a mature romance.
What makes this song particularly easy to sing is its kayōkyoku-style vocal line.
The range is neither too wide nor too narrow, and the rhythm is easy to follow, so for those who find melodies common in enka and kayōkyoku easy to sing, this can be considered a low-difficulty song.
If the mid-to-high notes in the chorus feel challenging, try lowering the key by one semitone.
Carmen ’77pinku redii
A 1977 hit song known for its choreography that dynamically shows off long, slender arms and legs, and its powerful sound.
The concept is that a pure-hearted girl is pretending to be “Carmen,” stretching just a bit beyond her years as she falls into a passionate, fiery love—when you listen now, it feels adorable, doesn’t it? She’s fallen for a slightly older man, and to make him notice her, she’s putting on the act of being a slightly sexy woman.
So please sing it with a playful touch, leaning into those prim and proper little “desu!” and “masu!”-like emphases that only a girl like her would make.
UFOpinku redii
This song, released in 1977 by Pink Lady, the female idol duo that produced numerous hits from the late 1970s through the 1980s, was created by the golden duo of lyricist Yū Aku and composer Shunichi Tokura.
Their innovative choreography shines in this track as well—the “UFO” pose in the intro is something everyone remembers imitating.
The song itself is, of course, excellent, but when it comes to Pink Lady, it’s ultimately the choreography that truly defines them.
To Marie on Fifth AvenuePedoro & Kapurishasu
This song is one of the signature tracks by Pedro & Capricious, released in 1973, with vocals by Mariko Takahashi, the group’s second lead singer.
The lyrics tell a bittersweet love story about a woman he once lived with, beginning with a restrained, conversational tone.
In the latter half, it showcases one of Mariko Takahashi’s strengths: her soaring upper register and powerful delivery that doesn’t rely on belting.
It might be nice to sing it as if you were the protagonist of this story-like song.
TANGO NOIRNakamori Akina
This song is themed around tango and brimming with an exotic atmosphere.
Given Akina Nakamori’s vocal quality and persona, she tends to suit this type of song, doesn’t she? It’s also fun how the city-pop style—accented by the then-trendy electronic drums—gradually takes on a tango feeling.
When singing it at karaoke, try keeping things restrained and mature until the chorus, then unleash your full power there—you might find it fits perfectly.
It’s a song I’d love to see men try as well.
