KISS MEHimuro Kyosuke
For men in their 40s, wouldn’t Kyosuke Himuro be the quintessential idol-like figure? Many men in that age group probably admired his stylish look and that unique vocal blend of passion and cool detachment.
Among his songs, the one I especially recommend is KISS ME—an undisputed classic.
Surprisingly, it’s quite easy to sing, since the vocal range is narrow and there aren’t many long sustained notes.
It’s a curious track that sounds hard-edged even if you don’t sing it in a hard style.
Give it a try.
To be happyFLYING KIDS
FLYING KIDS is a funk band that shocked the Japanese music scene.
They helped popularize funk in Japan, where it was still unfamiliar, and gained popularity with their original and sophisticated sound.
Among their songs, the one I particularly recommend is Shiawase de Aru You ni (To Be Happy).
While the track carries elements of funk and R&B, it doesn’t feature advanced vocal techniques like scat or hiccups, so the overall difficulty is relatively low.
Try singing it with a low voice like the original.
FRIENDSHIPH Jungle with T
This is the third single by the music unit H Jungle with t, formed by Masatoshi Hamada and Tetsuya Komuro, released in April 1996.
It was used as the theme song for the Nippon TV drama “Leave it to Ryoma!” Compared to the unit’s first single, “WOW WAR TONIGHT ~Sometimes Wanna Cry~,” and their second single, “GOING GOING HOME,” this is a slightly more niche choice, but precisely for that reason, I’m introducing it as a recommended pick for men in their 40s who want to show a bit of individuality among their friends.
There aren’t any particularly difficult parts when singing it at karaoke, so feel free to choose it and have fun.
Just note that the final chorus modulates, so watch out for that part.
Wandervogelkururi
Quruli is a rock band that continues to attract fans with ennui-tinged melodies and profound messages.
They may not be a band that became explosively popular, but they undeniably helped shape the style of contemporary Japanese rock.
Among their songs, the one I especially recommend for men in their 40s as an easy piece to sing is “Wandervogel.” With its near-futuristic arrangement layered with a monotonous vocal line, it’s extremely easy to sing.
It’s also nice that there are no high notes at all.
TELL MEhide
hide from X JAPAN.
He was also active as a solo artist, and at the time he was wildly popular—not only among women but also among men.
I imagine many men in their 40s were fans.
Among hide’s songs, the one I especially recommend is TELL ME.
It’s a straightforward rock track, but the vocal line is simple without complex pitch changes.
The range is narrow too, so even those who can’t sing very high should be able to handle it without any trouble.

No more tears are neededSuzuki Masayuki
Songs that are easy to sing tend to be built around simple melodies, which can make them feel a bit lacking in allure.
I imagine many men in their 40s want to sing songs that are both easy to sing and have a seductive vibe.
That’s why I recommend “Mou Namida wa Iranai.” It’s an R&B-tinged pop ballad with a sensuous melody throughout.
At the same time, the vocal lines have a lot in common with classic kayōkyoku, so there are more singable sections than you might expect.
If you’re a man in your 40s with a rich, full voice, definitely give it a try.
It’s nothing good.Nagabuchi Tsuyoshi
This was Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi’s 16th single, released in May 1987.
It was used as the theme song for the TV drama “Oyako Zigzag” (1987), in which he himself starred.
As of 2020, many people now in their 40s probably watched this drama in real time back then.
The “pee-pee-pee” scat in the intro is quite memorable.
Although Nagabuchi is known for his very distinctive singing style, the song itself is constructed as a fairly orthodox folk tune, making it relatively easy to sing even for those who aren’t confident singers or don’t usually sing.
You can sing it in a straightforward, faithful way by tracing the melody cleanly, or try imitating his signature style—since it’s a simple, melodic song, there are many ways to enjoy it depending on how you sing it.
Please enjoy it in your own interpretation!
