[By Age] Famous songs we’d like women in their 40s to sing (11–20)
ENDLESS STORYREIRA starring YUNA ITO
Yuna Ito’s debut single “ENDLESS STORY.” It’s nostalgic that she was still credited as REIRA starring YUNA ITO.
This work is crafted as a ballad with a strong infusion of Western pop elements.
Since it’s a song by an overseas songwriter, some ad-libs inevitably appear, but they aren’t the quick, repeatedly rising-and-falling R&B-style riffs, so it’s relatively easy to sing for this kind of song.
If falsetto is difficult for you, try centering your approach on mixed voice.

A song by the male–female duo DREAMS COME TRUE, who captivate fans with hook-filled tracks that distill funk and soul into J-pop and with a commanding vocal performance that brings that musicality to the fullest.

True to its title, the lyrics evoke a vision of the future and are likely to put even men in a romantic mood.

It’s a karaoke number that gets the guys fired up, and one I especially want women to sing with style.

This is the 11th single by singer Yoko Takahashi, who built experience in choirs and bands and even worked as a backup vocalist for major artists before her major debut.
Although it was written as the opening theme for the TV anime Neon Genesis Evangelion, which became a social phenomenon, it’s a famous song recognized even by listeners unfamiliar with the anime.
Its catchy phrases and powerful melody make it a hit at karaoke, appealing as cool even from a male perspective.
While it’s a challenging song, it’s a karaoke classic that women in their 40s—the generation it belongs to—are especially encouraged to sing.

With its cute melody, it’s a wedding song men also support, and one they’d love to hear women sing.
