[50s] Easy-to-Sing Karaoke Songs Ranking [2026] (11–20)
Even when I become an old ladyMoritaka Chisato11rank/position
This was Chisato Moritaka’s 16th single overall, released on June 25, 1992.
It was also used as the theme song for the Nippon TV drama “Matta Nashi!” As you’d expect from Moritaka, whose album “Hijitsuryokuha Sengen” caused quite a stir, this song has a very laid-back feel and is extremely easy to sing.
It was a big hit when it came out, so as of 2022, I imagine many women in their 50s fondly remember singing it at karaoke back then.
Being in your 50s is widely considered “middle-aged,” but I actually think it’s great fun to sing this song precisely after you’ve reached that stage.
Don’t overthink it—just enjoy yourself.
applausechiaki naomi12rank/position
Naomi Chiaki, the songstress who epitomized the Showa era.
Unlike typical artists, her singing truly moved people, didn’t it? Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is Katsuai.
It’s a classic that needs no introduction.
In the original, it may sound like she’s using falsetto, but in fact it’s a softened middle voice, so even those who can’t produce falsetto should be able to sing it easily without belting.
If it feels low, I recommend raising the key by one or two semitones.
foreignerKUBOTA Saki13rank/position
A hit song by Saki Kubota released in October 1979.
With a Middle Eastern dulcimer used in the intro and elsewhere, and a title that suggests the same, the track evokes a strong Oriental image.
Incidentally, the subtitle “Theme of the Silk Road” was reportedly added later, inspired by the feel of the completed piece.
Structurally, it follows a classic Showa pop format: A part for the introduction, a B part (chorus) for development, and then a modified return to the A part for the close.
This makes it easy to remember even for people who don’t regularly listen to songs or music.
This may be the biggest difference between Showa-era hits and many contemporary songs, which often have more intricate structures and developments.
There aren’t any particularly difficult sections to sing, but it’s best to emphasize the contrast between the minor-key A part and the major development in the B part.
Rather than belting, singing with a bit of headroom—gently yet expansively—will suit the song better.
If the high notes are challenging for your range, try lowering the key a little.
Blue airmailArai Yumi14rank/position
A female singer-songwriter with a wide musical range who enjoys overwhelming support from men and women in their 50s and 60s, Yumi Arai—better known as Yumi Matsutoya.
Among her songs, one I especially recommend for women in their 50s is Aoi Airmail.
This piece is a gentle ballad that portrays thoughts of a lover far away.
With its relaxed rhythm, I think it’s very easy for women in their 50s to sing.
The vocal range is also narrow, making it a comfortable choice for late-night karaoke.
Roppongi HeartbreakAn Ruisu15rank/position
For women in their 50s, when you think of female rock singers, Anne Lewis is probably the first that comes to mind, isn’t she? Among her songs, the one that boasts overwhelming popularity and singability is Roppongi Shinju.
The vocal range of this piece is mid2D to hiA, which is quite narrow for a female song.
Because many of the pitches suit a male vocalist’s range, it’s easy for men to sing, while women will need to adjust the key.
However, there’s plenty of room to shift the key both up and down, so this shouldn’t be a barrier.
Singing it with a rough, gritty edge will heighten the excitement, so give that approach a try.
