Karaoke-friendly Japanese songs recommended for women in their 50s (21–30)
BELIEVEMISIA
For more recent listeners, MISIA is probably strongly associated with being a classic, orthodox diva, but for women in their 40s, doesn’t she evoke more of an R&B singer image? Among her songs from that era, the one I especially recommend is BELIEVE.
Although the chorus features a high-pitched phrase with quite dramatic pitch jumps, most of the rest sits in the low-to-mid range.
Since there are repeated falsetto passages, if you’re not comfortable with head voice, try lowering the key before you tackle it.
Tears Flowing EndlesslyNatsukawa Rimi
The lyricist Ryoko Moriyama wrote this song based on her own experience, expressing her feelings for her late brother.
It’s often mistaken for a song about losing a lover, but that’s not the case.
“Nada Sousou” means “tears overflow and won’t stop.” It’s recommended for women who want to sing a song that isn’t about romance.
wicked womanNakajima Miyuki
Miyuki Nakajima has released a lot of hit songs.
One I’d like to recommend, with a comfortable vocal range, is “Akujo” (Bad Girl), released in October 1981.
Just from the title you might think, “Is it a dark song?” but the tune is surprisingly bright and the melody is easy to remember.
When you look at the lyrics, though, you’ll think, “It’s kind of a bittersweet song…” The verses (A-melo to B-melo) are sung fairly low, almost like speaking, and there’s a part in the chorus where the pitch suddenly jumps up, so watch out there.
Time your entry for the high notes and throw yourself into it—project your voice with momentum! That way you can sing comfortably without straining your throat.
If your timing is off it’ll feel odd, so keep practicing until you nail the timing.
applausechiaki naomi
A dramatic number by Naomi Chiaki released in 1972! The protagonist of this song is a singer standing on stage, thinking of a lover who has passed away.
Many listeners may have overlapped its heartbreaking story with their own bittersweet romances from that time.
Immerse yourself in this song as you recall the loves you’ve experienced throughout your life.
foreignerKUBOTA Saki
The song “Ihōjin,” with its strikingly Oriental melody, is Saki Kubota’s debut single.
At the time, she was an unknown singer-songwriter, but the tie-in with a memorable commercial featuring Silk Road imagery was a perfect match and made it a big hit.
The key is a bit on the high side, but since there aren’t large pitch jumps, I think it’s easy to sing!
