Energizing songs recommended for men in their 50s (1–10)
FanfareTamaki Kōji
As the theme song for TBS’s Sunday Theater drama “The Royal Family” for the October 2025 season, it’s becoming a go-to karaoke staple, especially popular among men in their 50s.
The lyrics resonate with generations rich in life experience, and they connect with the drama’s grand story depicting horse racing and family bonds.
With Koji Tamaki’s powerful vocal ability, you can pull off a cool performance by switching between a spoken, narrative style and a strong, belted style.
When hitting high notes, focus on quick vocal attack and keeping an open breath pathway so you don’t overstrain—this helps you produce sound comfortably without stressing your throat.
Proper preparation before singing is essential!
Young manSaijō Hideki
“Y.M.C.A.” has become a staple cheer song at school events and sports competitions.
The arm-swinging choreography went viral—these days, it feels like there’s hardly anyone who doesn’t know it! With an intro that instantly lifts your spirits, doesn’t it just make you smile? That smiling expression is really important: when your facial muscles naturally lift, your voice comes out more easily, making it much easier to sing! Plus, doing the choreography helps your body relax, which also makes projecting your voice easier.
Above all, the best thing is to just have fun singing it!
Tracks of HopeSazan Ōrusutāzu
A gem of a message song woven with hope for the future and memories etched deep in the heart.
Created by Southern All Stars in September 1990 as an insert song for the film Inamura Jane, this piece gives you the courage to face forward while holding the past close.
It was also used as the theme song for Fuji TV programs Mezamashi TV and FNS 27-Hour Television.
Wrapped in a refreshing melody and warm lyrics, why not take a moment to recall nostalgic memories and the people you cherish? Adopted as the departure melody at JR Chigasaki Station, this song has blended into everyday life and continues to soothe the hearts of many.
Our TomorrowElefanto Kashimashi
This is a masterpiece imbued with a powerful, emotionally resonant rock sound and a vision of walking toward the future alongside friends.
The friendship and bonds portrayed in the music video, along with the courage to step into a new tomorrow, gently support anyone seeking strength for their heart.
Released in November 2007 by Elephant Kashimashi, led by Hiroji Miyamoto, the song was used in a commercial for House Foods’ Ukon no Chikara and came to be loved by a wide audience.
It’s a track you’ll want to listen to when standing at a crossroads in life, when renewing your resolve, or when you need hope for the future.
With its robust melody, it fills you with the courage to move forward—an uplifting song that warms the heart.
LORIOUS DAYSHotei Tomoyasu
Not only as a guitarist but also as a composer and singer-songwriter, Tomoyasu Hotei has had a remarkable career.
While he isn’t the type known for powerful vocals, he has created many classic songs with his catchy musical style.
Among his tracks, one I particularly recommend is LORIOUS DAYS.
Despite its loud sound and uptempo feel, the vocal range is surprisingly narrow, and the melody line doesn’t fluctuate much in pitch, making it a song that’s relatively easy to score highly on throughout.
You are not aloneDEEN
Released in 1996 as DEEN’s ninth single.
It was used as the ending theme for the Fuji TV anime series Dragon Ball GT, and even after the ending theme changed, the orchestral version of this song continued to be played—evidence of its strong popularity among Dragon Ball fans.
It is also DEEN’s last single to reach the Top 3 on the Oricon charts.
countrysideTamaki Kōji
It was released in 1996 as Koji Tamaki’s 11th single.
The song was used as the theme for the Fuji TV Thursday Theater drama Coach, in which Koji Tamaki himself appeared.
It became his first solo entry into the Oricon top three and his biggest hit.
At the end of 1996, he made his first solo appearance at the 47th NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen.
