Karaoke Songs That Are Easy to Sing [Classic Picks for Women in Their 40s] (141–150)
Kiss me here.Shiina Ringo
It’s recommended when you want to immerse yourself in early Ringo-world.
It sings about the tangled feelings of someone whose lover is easily distracted by other women.
It’s a Shiina Ringo song, and the guy has a slightly more nihilistic vibe than your average man.
When he glances at a cute girl, even though I’m not that cute, I totally get that feeling of “Look over here!” No matter how fickle he is, I’m head over heels, so I just can’t leave him.
LOVE MachineMōningu Musume.
Morning Musume, the group that energized the early-2000s idol boom, is often surprisingly underestimated, but their songs are musically quite fascinating and incorporate underground influences from the time.
Among them, “LOVE Machine” is a remarkable work that distills funk and disco into techno and pop.
While rooted in Black music, the vocal lines retain a J-pop-style catchiness and are sung within a narrow range throughout.
Even women with lower voices should be able to sing it without issue.
BE TOGETHERSuzuki Ami
In the late 1990s, when J-POP was truly shining, this number sung by Ami Suzuki has a charm that instantly captures listeners’ hearts.
Its exhilarating synth sound and buoyant beat are striking, vividly calling back those irreplaceable moments spent with friends under the summer blue sky and the youthful days when our hearts swelled with hope for the future.
Released in July 1999, it also became familiar as a song for a MOS Burger commercial.
It earned Ami Suzuki her first No.
1 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart and was performed when she made her debut appearance at that year’s NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen—truly one of her signature songs.
This classic is also included on the million-selling album “infinity eighteen vol.1.” Sing it at karaoke, and the excitement of those days will come rushing back, guaranteed to get everyone fired up!

Crimson MoonShibata Jun
Jun Shibata is a female singer-songwriter whose melancholic vocals and distinctive allure leave a strong impression.
While she may not be a household-name mainstream artist, many women in their 40s likely listened to her often in their 20s.
Among her songs, the one I particularly recommend is Guren no Tsuki (Crimson Moon).
It features a touch of falsetto, but it’s brief and kept in a low register, so even those who aren’t confident in their singing should be able to handle it without strain.
If you want it to sound even better, sing with emotion and emphasize dynamic contrast.
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.
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.
CANDY GIRLhitomi
Although many people associate hitomi most strongly with her success in the 2000s, she also left behind several great songs in the ’90s.
Among them, the one I particularly recommend is “CANDY GIRL.” It’s a track drenched in that quintessentially ’90s, flashy synthesizer sound, yet the vocal line is surprisingly understated.
It may feel like it sits in the higher register, but the overall range isn’t wide, so as long as you find the right key, it should be quite singable.
Consider adding it to your repertoire.
