[2026] For men in their 50s! A roundup of classic Western songs that are easy to sing at karaoke (61–70)

CenterfoldThe J. Geils Band

An 80s megahit with a memorable intro.

This band originally had a blues-based, strongly R&B-tinged sound, and there was even a time when they were called the “American Rolling Stones.” But as the 80s arrived, the band’s direction shifted, leading to this very wild yet poppy number.

The English lyrics can be a bit tricky to sing, but just cover it with feeling!

My SharonaThe Knack

That ultra-famous number by The Knack that makes you go “Ah!” the moment the intro starts.

You’ve heard it in all kinds of places, right? People tend to think of The Knack as a one-hit wonder, but if you listen to their albums all the way through, they’re packed with hard-hitting yet poppy rock tracks with no filler.

What’s more, back in the day they were even hyped as “the second Beatles.” Perfect for a karaoke opener!

Daydream BelieverThe Monkees

Daydream BelieverThe Monkees

An original number by The Monkees, well known in Japan through Kiyoshiro Imawano of The Timers singing the Japanese cover in a certain convenience store commercial.

Amazingly, the song was released in 1967, and The Monkees were said to be as popular as The Beatles at the time.

This number has a very gentle melody, is easy to sing, and will create a warm, cozy atmosphere for everyone.

Be sure to grab a tambourine and sing along!

Every Breath You TakeThe Police

A signature song by The Police, the band Sting belonged to and who is still active as a solo artist at the forefront today.

While The Police initially gave the impression of having many punkish numbers and tracks with reggae-like rhythms, Every Breath You Take is unusual in their catalog—yet it became their biggest hit.

It’s a very sophisticated number, so if you’re in your 50s, be sure to sing it coolly in front of the younger crowd!

YMCAVillage People

This number is super famous in Japan thanks to Hideki Saijo’s cover “Young Man.” It’s originally a 1978 track by the Village People.

If you were a regular at discos, you might find your body moving naturally as soon as you hear it.

Let’s all get pumped by making the letters “Y-M-C-A” with our arms!
