LAT,43˚ N 〜Forty-three degrees north latitude〜DREAMS COME TRUE
One of the most popular musical units among women in their 40s is DREAMS COME TRUE.
Although they’ve produced many classic songs, they’re also known for having many high-difficulty tracks, which might make it hard to add them to your repertoire.
That’s why we recommend “LAT, 43˚ N — Forty-three Degrees North Latitude.” For a DCT song, the vocal range is quite narrow, and there aren’t any complex vocal lines.
There are relatively few breathing points, so just be mindful of that when you sing.
A flower blooming in joyACO
ACO is a female singer-songwriter who gained popularity for her trip-hop-centered musical style.
Many women in their 40s may have discovered her through her guest appearance on Dragon Ash’s classic track “Grateful Days.” Among ACO’s songs, the one I especially recommend is “Yorokobi ni Saku Hana” (“A Flower Blooming in Joy”).
While the vocals are sentimental, the melody line is unexpectedly even and subdued, with a fairly narrow range, making it easy to sing regardless of your vocal timbre.
Be sure to give it a listen.
Love me sinfullyChara
Chara is a female singer-songwriter who gained popularity with a musical style that incorporates elements of Black music.
Many women in their 40s still listen to her songs from time to time, don’t they? Among Chara’s tracks, the one I especially recommend is “Tsumi Fukaku Aishiteyo” (“Love Me Sinfully”).
While the low range stands out a bit, the vocals stay within the low to mid range, so the overall range isn’t very wide.
And although it draws on soul music, it doesn’t use advanced techniques like vocal runs, making it easy to sing naturally even for those not accustomed to singing Western-style music.
A Bouquet of Kisses in the RainImai Miki
Miki Imai’s famous song “A Bouquet of Kisses in the Rain.” The composition is by singer-songwriter KAN, and it features a soft, unornamented melody.
Because it’s sung by Miki Imai, many people may feel it’s high, but in reality the vocal range isn’t that wide, and there are no sudden high passages.
As long as you sing it in your proper key, you should be able to handle every part without any trouble.
Consider adding it to your repertoire.
My pager doesn’t beep anymoreKunitake Mari
Mari Kunitake, who was active as a singer and model.
She’s what you might call a one-hit wonder, but many people probably still remember her.
Speaking of her hit song, of course it has to be “Pokeberu ga Naranakute” (“My Pager Doesn’t Ring”).
Released as the theme song for a drama of the same name, this piece is arranged as a ballad, with a vocal line that has little fluctuation and is very easy to sing.
Many of you likely watched the drama at the time, so consider adding this song to your repertoire.
