heartKobukuro
The song “Kokoro” (“Heart”) is a number that gives you an opportunity to face your own heart.
Released in 2017, it was chosen as the theme song for the film “I’m Taking a Break at Work Now” (Chotto Ima Kara Shigoto Yamete Kuru), and the music video features NAOTO from EXILE and Sandaime J SOUL BROTHERS from EXILE TRIBE.
The track unfolds at a relaxed pace, as if having a gentle conversation with your heart, making it easy to sing without rushing.
If the key feels a bit high, try lowering it a few steps so you can sing more comfortably and freely.
Bye For NowT-BOLAN
T-BOLAN’s classic “Bye For Now.” This work is crafted into a rock ballad that epitomizes T-BOLAN’s hallmark masculine vibe.
For men in their late 40s, it might just hit the sweet spot.
While the singing style is intense, the vocal range isn’t particularly wide.
Plus, there are many shout-heavy sections, so even if your voice tends to get hoarse by the time the after-party rolls around, that roughness can actually become a plus and make it sound great.
Definitely give it a listen.
No worries if you're tone-deaf! Easy karaoke songs for men in their 40s (101–110)
Give it some guts!!Urufuruzu
Ulfuls’ classic “Guts Da Ze!!.” For men in their 40s, it’s probably a spot-on nostalgic tune.
While its funk-influenced melody and rhythm may feel unfamiliar to many Japanese listeners, it still has plenty of J-pop flavor and is easy to sing.
Since the song features quite a bit of shouting, it’s better suited to someone whose voice is a little rough—say, a guy at a second party—than to someone with a pristine tone.
Keep the groove in mind and give it a try.
I won’t fall in love anymore.Makihara Noriyuki
A signature song by Noriyuki Makihara, marked by a heartwarming melody that gently embraces the ache of heartbreak and the bravado that follows.
It tenderly portrays memories of a former lover and the nostalgia of everyday life, and the protagonist’s resolve to move forward resonates deeply with listeners.
Released in May 1992, it was chosen as the theme song for the Nippon TV drama “After the Children Have Gone to Bed.” Included on the album “You Are My Treasure,” it became a major hit, ranking 7th on Oricon’s year-end chart.
This piece speaks to those standing at life’s crossroads.
When you get together with friends for karaoke, its universally relatable lyrics and melody are sure to warm your heart.
There are some higher notes that may tempt you to push your voice, but if you relax and sing lightly, they’ll come out more easily.
Use your breath well.
I looked up at the sky.Kinashi Noritake, Hiromi, Tokoro George
Composed by George Tokoro as the theme song for the travel variety show “Noritake, Fumiya, and Hiromi Go! Camping Car Training Camp—A Journey of Encounters, Connections, and Happiness,” starring Noritake Kinashi, Fumiya Fujii, and George Tokoro and broadcast irregularly on the Fuji TV network from 2015 to 2016 and again in 2023, the track was released in December 2023.
It’s a mid-tempo piece with a warm, laid-back vibe, and its melodic range is comfortably singable for most men, making it a great recommendation even for those who don’t usually sing.
Just like in the original, it’s even more fun when sung together with a few friends in chorus!
Be kind to othersTHE BLUE HEARTS
THE BLUE HEARTS are a quintessential Japanese punk rock band—spot-on for men in their late 40s.
Among their songs, the one I especially recommend for men in their 40s because it’s easy to sing is Hito ni Yasashiku (“Be Kind to People”).
Popular as the theme song of a drama with the same title, it features a catchy punk rock melody that anyone can sing along to.
Since the song stays in the mid-range, it can easily become monotonous.
If you want to add more expression, don’t hesitate to throw in some shouts and sing it with a bold, masculine edge.
TELL MEhide with Spread Beaver
Hide from X JAPAN captivated not only women but many men as well.
I imagine quite a few men in their 40s admired him.
Among his songs, the one I especially recommend is TELL ME.
This track stands out for its straightforward rock sound that feels light yet passionate, and the vocal line is equally direct.
Since there aren’t any overly complicated vocal parts, it’s easy for anyone to sing.
The chorus is deliberately set in a lower register too, which is a welcome point for those who find it hard to hit higher notes.
