[60s] Karaoke Popularity Ranking by Generation [2026] (81–90)

For me to be myselfOzaki Yutaka81rank/position

It’s a song that conveys a powerful determination to live true to oneself and to keep moving forward.

Included on the 1983 album “Seventeen’s Map,” it has remained beloved over the years, even being used as the theme song for the 1997 drama “Boku ga Boku de Aru Tame ni.” The invigorating sound combined with an impassioned vocal performance is striking and evokes positive feelings about the future.

The emotional delivery in the chorus may seem challenging, but since the melody is fundamentally straightforward, it should be easy to sing as long as you firmly grasp the rhythm.

Stranger – Theme of the Silk RoadKUBOTA Saki82rank/position

This is a number by Saki Kubota, whose floating sound and distinctive vocal approach fully showcase the charm of kayōkyoku with a touch of melancholy.

It’s a classic that has been covered by many artists and is popular among women in their 60s.

Be sure to add it to your karaoke repertoire!

Can’t Say Anything… SummerTHE JAYWALK83rank/position

[Official] J-WALK “Speechless… Summer”
Can't Say Anything... SummerTHE JAYWALK

J-WALK has produced many classic songs.

Their success up until Koichi Nakamura left the band was remarkable, and they had a large male fanbase.

I believe many men in their 50s were fans as well.

Their biggest hit, “Nani mo Ienakute… Natsu,” is highly recommended as an easy song to sing.

The vocal line has little fluctuation, and there aren’t any particularly high parts, so singers of any range can handle it easily as long as the key is adjusted.

However, because the song contains many long tones, you’ll need to control your volume within the stamina limits of your diaphragm.

As long as you keep that in mind, it’s a song where you can aim for a high score.

Islanders’ TreasureBEGIN84rank/position

It was released in 2002 as BEGIN’s 23rd single.

Students from Ishigaki Municipal Ishigaki Junior High School wrote about their feelings for the island, which served as the basis for the lyrics.

The song conveys a love for Ishigaki Island, with images of calm seas and skies, and has become a popular choice for karaoke.

Speaking of Hitomi Ishikawa’s signature songs, this is the one.

Its lyrics, which portray the pure feelings of a woman aflame with love, and her powerful vocals make a strong impression.

Released in April 1981, it reached No.

6 on the Oricon charts, and she made her first appearance on that year’s NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen.

The lyrics depict her chasing after someone she likes after spotting him by chance in a café, conveying a straightforward, heartfelt love.

With its relaxed tempo, it’s a song that’s easy to sing.

When you try it at karaoke, immerse yourself in the feelings of a girl in love and sing your heart out.
