[50s] Easy-to-Sing Karaoke Songs Ranking [2026] (31–40)
CHA CHA CHAIshii Akemi31rank/position
Akemi Ishii’s biggest hit, “CHA CHA CHA.” Although it’s often thought to be an original, this song is actually a Japanese-language cover of a track by the Italian music group Finzi-Contini.
Its hallmark is a musical style that distills a somewhat Latin-tinged sound into Italo disco.
Because it’s based on Western pop, you might feel the rhythm is tricky, but the elements of the cha-cha-cha dance genre aren’t very pronounced; as long as you follow the bass line, you should be able to catch the rhythm in the B section without issue.
The chorus uses a standard Italo disco rhythm, so that shouldn’t pose any problems either.
The vocal range is narrow and there are hardly any long sustained notes, so you can definitely aim for a high score.
TOMORROWMayo Okamoto32rank/position
This was Mayo Okamoto’s debut single, released on May 10, 1995.
It was the theme song for the TBS drama “Second Chance,” and reached No.
1 on the Oricon Singles Chart in its eighth week on the chart.
Notably, this single remains her only No.
1 on that chart.
If you’re in your 50s, chances are you’ve heard this song at least once.
The mid-1990s, when this song was released, was truly the golden age of J-pop, a time when million-selling hits were coming one after another from various labels and artists.
One factor considered crucial back then for aiming at a million-seller was “being easy to sing at karaoke.” This song is no exception; starting with its chorus, it features melodies that are very easy to sing and remember, making it a comfortable choice even for those who aren’t confident singers.
The vocal range used in the melody isn’t very wide either, so don’t be afraid—give it a try!
No-sideMatsutōya Yumi33rank/position
Written and composed by Yumi Matsutoya, arranged by Masataka Matsutoya, the song was first released as a track on Reimy’s album “REIMY,” and later included as a self-cover on Yumi Matsutoya’s original album “NO SIDE.” For reference, it was released in December 1984.
At the time of its release, it attracted attention for being a song themed around rugby.
Musically, it’s medium-slow in tempo and the melodic range isn’t very wide, so as long as you set a key that suits your own voice when singing it at karaoke, it’s likely a song that almost anyone can sing without difficulty.
Try to sing it while cherishing each word of the lyrics, and be careful not to let the rhythm rush ahead.
Make my heart raceNagayama Miho34rank/position
For men in their 50s, wouldn’t it be fair to say that Miho Nakayama is an exceptionally catchy idol? Back then, even in her teens, many people were captivated by her vocals and looks, which exuded remarkable allure.
Among Miho Nakayama’s songs, the one I especially recommend for getting the crowd going and being easy to sing is “WAKU WAKU Sasete.” Blending synth-pop with kayōkyoku (Japanese pop), it’s composed with a fairly narrow vocal range of mid2 A# to hi C#.
The vocal line doesn’t fluctuate much, making it overall quite an easy song to sing.
However, since the tempo is fairly fast at BPM 136, it’s important to get a solid feel for the tempo in advance.
DiamondsPRINCESS PRINCESS35rank/position
Princess Princess released their seventh single in April 1989.
The band had been gradually gaining recognition up to this release, but this song broke into the Oricon Top 10 and became the catalyst for Princess Princess’s big breakthrough.
Many women in their 50s may have covered and performed this song at high school or university festivals.
It’s a song from the era that rode the band-boom wave, so plenty of people will be familiar with it in that way.
For karaoke, the melody itself doesn’t have a wide range and is very easy to sing, but try to keep it light and make sure you don’t lag behind the slightly bouncy beat.
