[60s] Karaoke Easy-to-Sing Song Rankings [2026] (21–30)

Body and soulDaun Taun Bugiugi Bando29rank/position

If you want to sing a passionate song, we recommend “Mi mo Kokoro mo.” This piece was released in 1977 by the band led by Ryudo Uzaki, the Downtown Boogie-Woogie Band.

Since it was used as the theme song for the popular drama “Detective Story,” many people will likely find it familiar.

In this song, most of the vocals are set in the lower register except for part of the chorus.

As your voice gains richness with age, this could be a great track to practice if you want to master a cool, gritty singing style.

Oh, sake!Yoshi Ikuzo30rank/position

Men in their 60s are the generation that experienced the dawn of kayōkyoku, rock, and folk music, and they can also be said to be very familiar with enka.

In particular, many have deep knowledge of modern enka, which differs from those based on traditional folk songs.

The song I recommend is Yosh Ikuzo’s “Sake yo.” As an enka piece, it is very easy to sing, with no kobushi that require complex pitch ornamentations.

The vocal range is also not wide—mid1 C# to mid2 F—so even men in their 60s, an age when projecting the voice can become difficult, should be able to sing it comfortably.

Angel’s Temptation / Jun Mayuzumi (early version)
Angel's TemptationMayuzumi Jun

It was released in 1968 as Jun Mayuzumi’s fourth single.

It reached No.

3 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart and became a major hit that won the Grand Prize at the 10th Japan Record Awards.

That same year, a film titled “Angel’s Temptation,” starring Mayuzumi and based on this song, was released by Shochiku, and her performance of the song in a miniskirt became a major topic of conversation at the time.

Kenichi Mikawa “Woman of Scorpio (New Recording)” (Official Audio)
Scorpio womanMikawa Ken'ichi

A signature song by Kenichi Mikawa that portrays the strength and poignancy of a passionate woman who lives for love.

Released in December 1972, this memorable enka number expresses straightforward affection and the sorrow of betrayal.

Mikawa’s powerful vocals blend beautifully with a distinctive worldview inspired by Scorpio, one of the twelve zodiac signs, and the song sold about 97,000 copies on the Oricon charts.

It was performed on NHK’s Kōhaku Uta Gassen for four consecutive years from 2006 to 2009, revealing new charms through various arrangements, including operatic and samba styles.

With its relaxed tempo and gentle melodic contours, it’s also easy to sing—another part of its appeal.

Why not sing it with a sense of nostalgia as a treasured song tied to precious memories?

Among people in their 60s, those in the latter half of the decade likely experienced the heyday of folk music.

Many of you may have been particularly struck by Masashi Sada’s lyrics, overflowing with originality and narrative depth.

Of all his songs, the one I especially recommend is Kakashi.

Its range is an average mid1 A# to mid2 F#, and because the pitch movement is fairly steady, it’s easy for anyone to sing.

The melody has an ennui-like mood, so be sure to sing it together and get the vibe going.

The Wind RisesMatsuda Seiko34rank/position

Seiko Matsuda has many famous songs.

While “Kaze Tachinu” is a somewhat lesser-known track, it’s perfect for aiming for a high score at karaoke.

Its relaxed tempo and a vocal line without intricate pitch fluctuations are appealing; although the melody is relatively high, anyone can sing it easily with the right key adjustment.

If there’s one point to watch out for, it’s the pre-chorus (the B section).

Because it features a high phrase with a relatively wide upward pitch movement, you’ll need to consciously track the pitch carefully.

The Camellia Sasanqua InnŌkawa Eisaku35rank/position

Camellia Inn by Eisaku Okawa <with lyrics> cover by Shin
The Camellia Sasanqua InnŌkawa Eisaku

This is the 32nd single by Japanese enka singer Eisaku Okawa, released in August 1982.

It has sold over 1.8 million copies in total, becoming Okawa’s biggest hit.

On New Year’s Eve 1983, it won the Long-Seller Award at TBS’s 25th Japan Record Awards, and on the same day Okawa also achieved his long-cherished first appearance on NHK’s 34th Kouhaku Uta Gassen.

In terms of musical style, it’s quintessential enka through and through, which makes it easy for the general public to sing, yet the deeper you explore the song, the more profound it becomes.

I hope everyone enjoys it in their own way.

When you sing the title call in the song, don’t tighten your throat—sing it out resonantly!
