Once you reach your forties, it can feel like a hassle to look for new music, and, unlike when you were younger, going to stores and researching from scratch can also seem like too much trouble.

So, what bands are people in their forties listening to?

We’ve put together a ranking of bands popular among people in their forties, so let us introduce them.

Yorushika – Just Clear Skies for You (MUSIC VIDEO)
Only for you, clear skiesYorushika

Yorushika was formed in 2017 by n-buna, who had been active as a Vocaloid producer, together with vocalist suis.

Their music—woven from n-buna’s exceptional skill as a composer in neatly organizing and channeling a wealth of information into songs, and suis’s captivating, slightly husky voice that handles a wide range of styles—has become indispensable to the J-pop scene in the Reiwa era.

Released in 2018, “Just a Sunny Day for You” surpassed 230 million views on YouTube as of March 2025, making it one of Yorushika’s signature early tracks.

Some women in their 40s might be inclined to shy away, thinking, “Songs these days are kind of complicated, and I’m not sure about singing them at karaoke…,” but “Just a Sunny Day for You” doesn’t have the dense, lyric-packed melody often heard in recent hits.

Each note is enunciated clearly, and the vocal range is very narrow, so it should feel easy to sing.

However, the pitch is high, so those with lower voices may want to adjust the key.

A B-side track from the 2017 single “Fuyuban” (Winter Edition).

A three-piece rock band formed in 2004.

They’re a relatively recent band, but definitely one I want people to know about.

When this song was uploaded to YouTube, it gained support from overseas listeners and surpassed 2 million views.

It seems we all think the same things, doesn’t it?
