Tamio Okuda, who has enjoyed overwhelming support from both men and women since his Unicorn days.

“Sasurai” is his eighth single as a solo artist and was chosen as the theme song for the Fuji TV Monday 9 p.m.

drama “Days,” starring Tomoya Nagase.

The lyrics, very much in Okuda’s style, exude a rugged masculinity—saying that even if those around you don’t wander, you should go ahead and wander yourself.

It’s a number we especially want men in their 40s to sing—those who yearn to roam but can’t quite do so in reality.

With a melody that doesn’t have big pitch changes, even people who aren’t confident singers can give it a try!

The band 19 gained popularity in the 2000s for their catchy messaging and musical style.

For those in their early 40s, they’re probably a nostalgic group that brings back memories of youth.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is Hatenonai Michi (Endless Road).

It leans a bit toward the lower register, but by your 40s, this level of low pitch should be comfortable to sing.

Also, the song doesn’t require high notes, so even those who aren’t good with falsetto should have no trouble.

Give it a try.

For those who find the original key too high to sing comfortably—this one’s still high, but it’s all about practice.

These lyrics really suit Takeshi Tsuruno’s voice; he puts real feeling into it.

Let’s keep at it until we can sing it with true emotion!

Magokoro Brothers, a rock band acclaimed for their original musicality.

For men in their 40s, they’re probably a band packed with nostalgic memories.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is Summer Nude.

The melody has a slight city-pop vibe, but the performance itself features plenty of funk elements.

That said, there aren’t tricky grooves, nor do you encounter things like vocal fakes or hiccups, so the overall difficulty is on the easier side.

Hide-and-seekYuuri

For men in their 40s looking for an easy-to-sing recent hit, I recommend Yuuri’s “Kakurenbo.” Yuuri originally made his major debut as the frontman of a rock band, which later disbanded.

His street performances drew attention, and in 2020 he re-debuted as a singer-songwriter.

While he’s especially popular among Gen Z, his diary-like lyrics and carefully woven melodies resonate deeply with listeners in their 40s as well.

“Kakurenbo” is one of his signature songs, and among his works it’s set in a relatively lower key.

Although the chorus reaches slightly higher notes, the overall range is narrower, making it easier to sing.

The more powerful passages carry a sultry quality characteristic of a singer with rock roots, and it’s a great pick for ballad lovers to try.

TRAIN-TRAINZa Burū Hātsu

[Official] THE BLUE HEARTS 'TRAIN-TRAIN' [3rd Single (1988/11/23)] THE BLUE HEARTS / TRAIN-TRAIN
TRAIN-TRAINZa Burū Hātsu

The Blue Hearts’ classic “TRAIN-TRAIN” was a long-running hit from the 1980s into the early 2000s.

True to the Blue Hearts’ style, this track is a passionate punk rock song characterized by its raw sound.

You might expect it to be hard on the throat vocally, but it actually sits within a relatively narrow range of mid1 G# to mid2 F#.

The vocal line itself isn’t complex; however, starting from the second verse, it incorporates a slightly spoken delivery, which brings subtle pitch variations compared to the first verse.

Because this spoken-like quality isn’t a purely musical pitch change, be sure to carefully learn it by ear.

Sharan Q is a band that gained popularity for its original musicality, combining the essence of kayōkyoku with rock.

They’re well-regarded for their ballads, and among them, “My Babe Kimi ga Nemuru made” is especially recommended as an easy song to sing.

The vocal range is quite narrow, from mid1 C# to mid2 G#.

They frequently use a technique called ‘hiccup’ at the start of each phrase, so mastering this will quickly elevate the overall quality.

Give it a try for reference.
