Interesting songs recommended for men in their 40s (1–10)
The Blue Idiot of CaliforniaOshima Nagisa
Included on the 1990 album “Nagisa Oshima.” A five-member rock band formed in 1989.
The band centers around manga artists Jun Miura and Masahiko Kikuni.
It’s a track notable for its simple, straightforward rock sound and lyrics arranged like playful wordplay.
huge nuisanceUNICORN
Included on the 1989 album Hattori.
A five-piece rock band from Hiroshima Prefecture formed in 1986.
The bright, crisp drum tone carries the song along at a lively uptempo pace, and paired with the speedy, poppy melody, Tamio’s vocals singing about the sorrows of solo job transfers make it both entertaining and refreshing—one of those tracks that lifts your spirits.
to youMONGOL800
Among people in their 40s, those in the early half may be more familiar with Japanese rock.
In particular, I think many were fans of MONGOL800.
With that in mind, I recommend their song “Anata ni.” The vocal range for this track is quite narrow, from mid1 D to mid2 G.
While mid1 D is slightly low and doesn’t leave much room to lower the key, men with naturally low voices will likely find the original key comfortably singable, so it shouldn’t be a major issue.
The pitch stays fairly consistent, so consider adding it to your repertoire.

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.
Linda LindaZa Burū Hātsu
The Blue Hearts’ classic “Linda Linda.” It’s an indispensable song when talking about Japanese punk rock.
Its intense vibes often lead to misunderstandings, but in fact the vocal line is surprisingly gentle and the range isn’t very wide.
Since it sits in the low to mid range, anyone can sing it comfortably with the right key adjustment.
However, the low notes in the verse (A-melo) are fairly low, so don’t lower the key too much just because the chorus and the B-melo feel easy to sing.
The rattlesnake is comingTonneruzu
Not only did they score big with variety shows, but the comedy duo Tunnels also enjoyed hits with their songs.
Among the many hit numbers they produced, the one I especially recommend as an easy-to-sing track is Garagara Hebi ga Yattekuru.
It falls under what you’d call a comic song and is mainly aimed at elementary and middle school students, but the vocal line is surprisingly funky and cool.
The overall vocal range is quite narrow, so it’s suitable for men of almost any voice type.
DON’T STOP BELIEVINGZIGGY
ZIGGY is a band that greatly energized the rock scene of the 1980s.
Known for bright, powerful songs that embody classic rock ’n’ roll, they’ve released many tracks over the years.
Among ZIGGY’s songs, the one I especially recommend for men in their 50s is “DON’T STOP BELIEVING.” While the vocals aren’t particularly low, no part goes beyond the mid-range, and there aren’t many long sustained notes, making the vocal lines quite easy to sing.
