[For People in Their 40s] Karaoke Songs That Are Easy to Sing Ranking [2026] (71–80)
dragonflyNagabuchi Tsuyoshi78rank/position
It’s Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi’s 20th single in total, released in October 1988.
It was used as the theme song for the TBS drama “Tonbo,” in which Nagabuchi himself starred, and it became a million seller.
It’s one of the iconic folk-rock songs of the Heisei era.
To make this song sound good at karaoke, the key is, above all, how you handle the pauses—the “ma” between phrases and between lines.
Vocally, there aren’t many particularly difficult melodic parts, so try singing while keeping a solid sense of rhythm.
Since Nagabuchi’s singing style is very distinctive, it’s perfectly fine to have fun doing an impression of him, including the scat sections in the intro and elsewhere!
fragileEvery Little Thing79rank/position
The 17th single by Every Little Thing, known by the abbreviation ELT.
A signature song used as the theme for the dating reality show “Ainori,” it won the Excellence Award for Cable Music at the 34th Japan Cable Radio Awards and the Gold Award at the 43rd Japan Record Awards.
It may feel challenging due to the melodic leaps in the chorus, but the tempo is relaxed, so you’ll be fine if you sing calmly.
It’s a number I’d like women in their 40s—who likely heard it in real time, including on TV—to try singing at karaoke.
CRAZY GONNA CRAZYTRF80rank/position
Even within the broad label of “people in their 40s,” the music you grew up with differs greatly depending on whether you’re in your early or late 40s.
That said, TRF can be considered an artist popular across the entire 40-something demographic.
Among their songs, CRAZY GONNA CRAZY is particularly easy to sing.
Because it’s primarily dance music, it can be hard to notice, but the song actually has a narrow vocal range and doesn’t feature complex melodic leaps.
As long as you adjust the key to suit your voice, even those who feel their voice doesn’t come out easily should be able to sing it without trouble.
Consider adding it to your repertoire.

5 seconds before I fall seriously in loveHirosue Ryōko81rank/position
The actress Ryoko Hirosue’s classic song “Maji de Koi suru 5 Byō Mae.” Since this piece is sung by an actress rather than a singer, it’s notably easier compared to other songs I’ve introduced.
Its biggest charm is, above all, its bright, upbeat tone.
Given that kind of sound, combined with Hirosue’s naturally higher voice, you might assume it demands a high vocal range, but the song’s range isn’t actually very wide.
It also doesn’t require techniques like vibrato or long sustained notes, so even women in their 40s who aren’t confident singers should be able to sing it with ease.
Angel’s RestHisamatsu Fumina82rank/position
Fumina Hisamatsu is a female singer who gained popularity for her musical style that incorporates glam rock and soft rock into J-pop.
She has a slightly low, full-bodied voice, and is known for vocals as robust as those of male rock singers.
Among her songs, the one I especially recommend is Tenshi no Kyūsoku (Angel’s Rest).
If you’re a rock fan in your late 40s, you might have listened to it back in the day.
While the song is notable for its powerful melody, it sits mostly in the low-to-mid range and has a narrow vocal range, making it a piece that doesn’t depend heavily on the singer’s specific timbre.
Consider adding it to your repertoire.
Protect the Lightsupittsu83rank/position
It’s being used as the opening theme song for the anime SPY×FAMILY Season 3.
Spitz, who aren’t really known for anime theme songs, are apparently doing their first anime this time.
The melody has a gentle feel that slips right into your heart.
Since vocalist Kusano’s voice is a transparent-sounding mixed voice, you might feel the song is high when you listen, but the actual range is D#3 to A#4, so it’s not overly high.
That said, it’s a challenging range if you try to belt it out with force.
It’s easier if you imagine singing lightly and resonating in your head.
At the end, the note G#4 continues—here I recommend singing with a humming sensation rather than pushing yourself.
AloneMayo Okamoto84rank/position
Alone, released in 1997 by singer Mayo Okamoto—best known for her signature song TOMORROW—is a heartbreak ballad that anyone can relate to.
Although she’s often associated with a bright vocal tone, she sings this track with a very sorrowful voice.
It’s a perfect song for women who excel at gentle, tender ballads.
