[Must-See for Your 40s] Easy-to-Sing Karaoke Songs That Get the Crowd Going | Timeless Hits Everyone Can Enjoy (1–10)
Miracle EarthNEW!Kuwata Keisuke & Mr.Children
When it comes to male duets for people in their 40s, isn’t “Kiseki no Hoshi” the first that comes to mind? Released in 1995 as a charity single for the Act Against AIDS campaign, this collaboration between two top artists of the time sold over 1.7 million copies and is characterized by the passionate vocals of Kuwata and Sakurai singing in alternation.
The lyrics and composition were by Keisuke Kuwata, and the arrangement was by Takeshi Kobayashi and Mr.
Children.
There’s also harmonizing in the chorus, making it a very satisfying song to sing.
Interestingly, it became a topic of discussion that Sakurai’s singing at the beginning imitates Kuwata’s style.
Since the backing track isn’t surprisingly intense, as long as the two vocalists project their voices solidly, it should turn into a powerful performance!
JAMTHE YELLOW MONKEY
For rock fans in their 40s, many of you may have admired THE YELLOW MONKEY, right? Yemon has produced countless classics, but the song I especially recommend as being easy to sing is JAM.
While it gives off an energetic vibe, its overall vocal range is quite narrow, from mid1C to mid2F.
In terms of singability, it’s a perfect choice.
However, because the range is narrow, it can be hard to create moments of excitement, so you’ll need to be mindful of rhythm and dynamics as you sing.
Happy lifeNEW!175R
This is the major-label debut single released on January 16, 2003.
It debuted at No.
1 on the Oricon chart, and along with the second single “Sora ni Utaeba,” it achieved a remarkable feat as a representative anthem of youth punk.
It features a bright, catchy melody and positive lyrics, produced by Masahide Sakuma.
The overall vocal range is D#3 to C5, and the key point is how powerfully you can hit the high notes right at the start.
Also, since the tempo is on the faster side, if you can harness that tempo to build momentum, the high parts in the chorus shouldn’t feel too tough.
In any case, get your whole body into it and have fun!
A gentle feelingChara
Chara, a female singer-songwriter who gained popularity for her distinctive musicality.
Many women in their 40s might have been fans of hers, right? Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is Yasashii Kimochi.
It’s a track that balances both a gothic feel and cuteness.
The vocal range is on the higher side at mid2 A# to hi D#, but the overall span is relatively narrow.
Using breath-based techniques such as hiccups can instantly elevate the quality, so try singing while referencing her breathing style.
Glass BoyKinKi Kids
KinKi Kids’ classic hit “Glass no Shōnen.” The song was composed by singer-songwriter Tatsuro Yamashita, and if you listen closely, you can definitely hear his signature style in places.
The track is notable for its soaring vocals, but the range is fairly narrow—mid1 E to mid2 G—so as long as you set the key appropriately, it’s easy to sing for both men and women.
The melody has a somewhat retro Showa-era feel, so if you’ve mastered vibrato, it will significantly elevate the quality of your performance.
Et cetera related to the seashorePUFFY
PUFFY is a distinctive female duo whose music is striking for its unique sensibility: while their songs often have a bright, standout tone, they also carry a subtly ennui-laden atmosphere.
They’re also known as fashion icons, and I believe many women in their 40s admired their fashion and musical style.
Among PUFFY’s tracks, the one I especially recommend is Nagisa ni Matsuwaru Et Cetera.
Although it sits a bit on the higher side, the vocal range itself is relatively narrow—mid2B to hiC#—so as long as you sing it in an appropriate key, you shouldn’t struggle with vocal production.
Since much of it is sung in chest voice, trying to deliver the chorus in a speaking-like tone is a good approach.
SaudadePorunogurafiti
Among people in their early 40s, Porno Graffitti could be considered a very popular music group.
Many might associate them with a high-pitched vocal image, but surprisingly, their songs tend to have a relatively narrow vocal range.
One of their most popular tracks, Saudade, is also set within a fairly limited range of mid2B to mid2G#.
Because it features many slightly rapid phrases, it’s a good idea to plan your breathing carefully between lines.
