[2026] For Men in Their 50s! A Collection of Easy-to-Sing Western Music Classics for Karaoke (101–110)

Saturday in the ParkCHICAGO

Chicago – Saturday In The Park (1973)

Chicago’s 1972 hit is still often heard on TV and radio in Japan.

When it comes to Chicago, I think “Hard to Say I’m Sorry” is the famous one, but for karaoke, “Saturday in the Park” is easier to sing.

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.

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

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.
