Karaoke Songs Men in Their 40s Should Sing | A Curated Selection of Hit Tracks Women Want to Hear! (71–80)
At all times.Makihara Noriyuki
Makihara Noriyuki’s third single, released in 1991.
With its effortlessly light, catchy melody that slips smoothly into anyone’s ears, paired with Makihara’s vocals—both gentle and strong—the rhythm feels wonderfully pleasant.
And the message that, no matter what, it’s okay to stay true to yourself resonates across generations.
For those of us in our forties who have questioned ourselves, felt frustration, and gradually found our own way of living, it’s a song we want to revisit and sing again now more than ever.
B-BlueBOØWY
Among men in their early 50s, many likely listened to BOØWY.
The band left behind numerous memorable rock classics, and among them, the song I especially recommend for its ease of singing is “B-Blue.” While its heart-pounding melody is striking, the vocal range is surprisingly narrow, and the vocal line doesn’t fluctuate much.
It’s a song you can comfortably handle even when your voice is worn out after a second party, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
HeartFukuyama Masaharu
Masaharu Fukuyama is a singer-songwriter who enjoys immense popularity both as a musician and an actor, and whose funny personality also captivates fans.
His 12th single “Heart,” released as a double A-side with “you,” was used as the theme song for the TV drama Meguriai (Fateful Encounter).
Its refreshing melody, tinged with a sense of melancholy, further enhances the lyrics that evoke love.
With its relatively low key, it’s an easy karaoke pick—especially recommended for those in their 40s.

mixed nutsOfisharu Higedan Dism
Official HIGE DANDism’s “Mixed Nuts” is a captivating song used as the opening theme for the anime SPY×FAMILY.
Its intro, featuring a noisy guitar sound and jazzy bassline, grabs listeners’ attention in an instant.
SPY×FAMILY is popular across all ages, and many women watch it as well.
With its bouncy, hype-inducing melody, this track is sure to fire up the room at karaoke.
Taking on its intricate pitches might even boost your confidence!
Close your eyesHirai Ken
Released in 2004, this song by Ken Hirai became so famous that almost everyone knows it, partly because it was the theme song for the blockbuster film “Crying Out Love, in the Center of the World.” The arrangement by Seiji Kameda—also known as the bassist of Tokyo Jihen—really shines.
Since it’s a Ken Hirai song, a certain level of vocal ability is desirable, but if you can sing it well, it’s a track that’s likely to be very popular with women.
It’s one of the ballads I’d recommend to those comfortable with slightly higher keys.
SOUL LOVEGLAY
GLAY is a four-member rock band that churned out hit songs during the heyday of the visual kei movement in the 1990s and continues to be highly active today.
Their 14th single, “SOUL LOVE,” which was used as the campaign song for Kanebo’s “Bronze Love ’98 Summer,” is said to have been written by TAKURO in just ten minutes.
The arrangement moves from a twin-lead-guitar intro into a refreshingly GLAY-like ensemble, and for those in their 40s—the generation that grew up with it—simply hearing it may bring a flood of memories.
It’s one of GLAY’s signature tracks, sure to boost your mood when it comes on as background music during a drive.
Precious LoveEXILE ATSUSHI
With a warm, translucent voice, EXILE ATSUSHI pens a wedding song themed around love and bonds.
Gently singing of the importance of affection felt in days walked together and vows to the future, this work carefully portrays the delicate emotions of a romance born in everyday life transforming into eternal love.
Released as a single in October 2014, it was featured in a commercial for the wedding magazine Zexy and earned the Best Vocal Performance at the 56th Japan Record Awards that same year.
It was subsequently included on the album Love Ballade, captivating listeners across a wide audience.
Whether for a moody evening spent savoring a drink while feeling the bond with someone special, or as wedding background music, it will surely stay close to your heart.
