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

Careless WhisperWham!

A big hit ballad by the British duo WHAM!, George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley.

In Japan, Hideki Saijo and Hiromi Go also covered it.

It’s quite rare for two artists to release covers around the same time in Japan, which suggests the melody really resonates with Japanese listeners.

Plus, for a ballad, it feels like it would work in karaoke without killing the vibe, so if you’re a strong singer, definitely give it a try!

A massive hit by YES, a progressive rock band representing the UK.

Around this time, YES brought in promising young guitarist Trevor Rabin, broke away from their previous prog sound, and restarted as a newly reborn YES.

Although it was a hit, many longtime YES fans were critical; while they gained new fans, they lost some of the old ones.

Even so, this hugely famous song is relatively easy to sing at karaoke, giving the impression that it’s suitable for beginners to Western pop/rock karaoke.

I’m not in love10cc

If you’re picking a heart-wrenching love song, I think this one is a must.

It’s that sad—a breakup song that can bring you to tears just by listening.

The lyrics aren’t all that difficult, so I strongly recommend giving it a try at least once.

At the time, this was a popular Western song often used for wedding entrance music and during candle-lighting ceremonies.

Since it’s a male-female duet, it might be nice to try singing it with a woman.

It might be less familiar to people in their 20s, but among those in their 40s, many will probably know it.

Originally released as a solo single by Frankie Valli in 1967, this song was covered in 1982 and became a massive hit in Japan.

It was a staple track when disco started to boom and really got the crowd going.

I also recommend singing and dancing to it at karaoke for a fun time.
