Karaoke Songs That Are Easy to Sing [Classic Picks for Women in Their 40s] (191–200)
My Room, My Dress Shirt, and MeHiramatsu Eri
Eri Hiramatsu’s biggest hit song, “Room, White Shirt, and Me.” If you’re a woman in your 40s, you’ve probably heard it at least once.
Because Eri Hiramatsu’s vocal range is quite high, many people may think this song requires a wide range.
In reality, it’s simply sung in a high register, and the overall range isn’t broad.
Even women with lower voices should be able to sing it well if they adjust to a suitable key.
The vocal line itself is simple, so be sure to find a key that fits you and give it a try.
HeroAmuro Namie
A rousing cheer song by Namie Amuro that powerfully sings of the “courage” and “hope” needed at every stage of life.
Released in July 2016 as NHK’s broadcast theme for the Rio de Janeiro Olympics and Paralympics, it captured the hearts of a wide audience—from athletes to the general public.
When she made a special appearance at the 68th NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen in 2017, her stunning performance set a remarkable peak viewer rating of 48.4%.
If you choose this song when enjoying karaoke with someone special, you’ll surely share a moment of true connection.
Winter StoryOkamura Takako
After her work as part of Aming, Takako Okamura also thrived as a solo artist.
She has left behind several classic songs, but the one I especially recommend is Winter Story.
The vocal range in this piece isn’t wide, and the melody line has relatively gentle contours.
Because the range isn’t broad, you can lower the key and still project the low notes sufficiently, making it undeniably easy to sing.
Consider adding it to your repertoire.
Moonlight LegendDALI
A classic that vividly sings of a girl who can’t quite be honest with herself, capturing a pure first love that everyone has felt at least once.
Its lyrics, themed around feelings that deepen under the night sky and fateful encounters, gently stir listeners’ memories.
Released in March 1992, the song captured countless hearts as the opening theme for the TV anime Sailor Moon and Sailor Moon R, and in March 2019 it was honored with Sony Music Entertainment’s Heisei Anisong Grand Prize.
It’s also renowned as a popular karaoke staple: with a manageable vocal range and easy-to-follow rhythm, it has long been loved as a song everyone can enjoy singing together.
Toridori Yumemidori feat. DJ KOOOka Midori
The lead track Toridori Yumemidori from Midori Oka’s 20th anniversary album JOURNEY is a unique song—an upbeat, festival-style kayō techno number featuring none other than DJ KOO.
It’s interesting how the up-tempo dance beat meshes surprisingly well with the abundant traditional Japanese flavors like shamisen and shinobue.
The vocals are quite rapid-fire, but once you memorize the lyrics, it’s the kind of song you can power through by riding the rhythm—perfect for karaoke.
Don’t overthink it; if possible, sing it with a partner playing DJ KOO’s role—you’re sure to have a great time!
