[2026] For Men in Their 50s! A Collection of Easy-to-Sing Western Hit Songs for Karaoke

BamDeep Purple

Deep Purple – Burn 1974 Live Video HQ

For a song that livens up a karaoke session and is easy to sing, I recommend Deep Purple’s “Burn” (Japanese title: “Murasaki no Honō”) for men in their 50s.

You might recognize it from Takuya Kimura’s Tama Home commercial.

While achieving Ian Gillan’s soaring rock high tones can be tough, this song is all about momentum—so put some spirit into it and sing with gusto.

All Right NowFree

Free – All Right Now

It’s a 1970 release by the British rock band Free and the band’s biggest hit.

Despite its slow tempo, Paul Kossoff’s distorted guitar and Paul Rodgers’s husky vocals give the song an overall buoyant feel.

Careless WhisperGeorge Michael

George Michael – Careless Whisper (Official Video)

It is a signature solo work by George Michael, who was a member of Wham!.

As George Michael’s biggest hit, it became a worldwide success.

In Japan, it drew attention when Hideki Saijo (under the title “Dakishimete Jitterbug”) and Hiromi Go released covers around the same time.

Alone AgainGilbert O`Sullivan

Gilbert O’Sullivan – Alone Again (original version)

As you can tell from the O’ in his name, Gilbert O’Sullivan is an Irish singer, and this is his signature song.

“Alone Again” is practically synonymous with Gilbert O’Sullivan.

Even those who don’t know the song title or the artist’s name have probably heard it at least once.

It remains a timeless classic more than 30 years after its release.

Rock ‘n’ rollLed Zeppelin

Led Zeppelin – Rock and Roll HQ

When it comes to signature songs by Led Zeppelin, a hard rock band emblematic of the ’70s, there are many, including Stairway to Heaven, Immigrant Song, and Whole Lotta Love.

But for karaoke, I think Rock and Roll is relatively easier to sing.

It’s basically easy to get into the groove, so just ride the momentum and power through it.

Whatever you do, don’t assume you’ll be able to hit Robert Plant’s high notes.

Bohemian RhapsodyQueen

Queen – Bohemian Rhapsody (Official Video Remastered)

As Queen’s biggest hit, it is hailed in the UK as the greatest single of all time, surpassing numerous songs by the Beatles and Elton John.

When singing it, the arrangement unfolds in sections, so your delivery will change accordingly, but if you sing with both power and delicacy as if you were Freddie Mercury, I don’t think it’s all that difficult.

Dear DukeStevie Wonder

Stevie Wonder – Sir Duke

This is a piece Stevie Wonder created in memory of the late Duke Ellington, and the lyrics mention many jazz musicians.

With its catchy, upbeat, poppy rhythm, it’s sure to be a hit at karaoke.

There’s a section in the middle where the pitch is tricky, so be careful when you sing it.
