Western music popular among women in their 40s. World classics and hit songs (11–20)
Another Part of MeMichael Jackson

When it comes to artists popular among women in their forties and big-name stars, it has to be Michael.
His tragic death in 2009 was a historic event, and afterward a dance boom swept the world.
This song is especially popular with the generation who experienced it in real time.
The live footage capturing Michael at his most brilliant is also outstanding.
septemberEarth, Wind & Fire

Among Earth, Wind & Fire’s songs, isn’t this “September” probably the most famous one in Japan? But it might not be widely known that this song is actually a love song.
It’s a happy, straightforward love song.
EverythingMary J Blige

When it comes to Mary J.
Blige, I wanted to say “Real Love,” but since that song is more of an unrequited love song, I chose “Everything” instead.
It’s an exquisite love song that beautifully blends Kyu Sakamoto’s “Sukiyaki” with Diana & Marvin’s “You Are Everything.”
Rock with YouMichael Jackson

A fresh yet actually sexy song titled “I Want to Rock You (I Want to Hold You).” It’s been covered by many artists and continues to be loved across generations—so much so that it’s still played in clubs today.
It’s a refreshingly romantic love song characteristic of Michael.
You Are the Sunshine of My LifeStevie Wonder

A heartwarming love song that begins with “You are the sunshine of my life.” It’s also famous for having been covered by many artists.
The “sunshine” expressed by Stevie Wonder, who is visually impaired, feels even warmer than the visible world.
