[For men in their 70s] A collection of easy-to-sing songs even for the tone-deaf (1–10)
Journey of the HeartNEW!chūrippu
This is the song that you can’t help but hum during the season of departures.
It’s a signature work by Tulip, a band formed in Fukuoka Prefecture, and a classic released in April 1973 as their third single.
Its melody, which evokes the poignant feelings for a lover far away and the scene of setting off by train, truly resonates.
In fact, just before release, the lead vocal was changed from Kazuo Zaitsū to Tatsuya Himeno, and the structure was altered to start with the chorus—changes that led to a major hit, reaching No.
1 on the Oricon charts.
Beloved as a TV drama theme and in commercials, this piece has been cherished across generations.
As you reminisce about youthful journeys together, raise your voices and sing “Kokoro no Tabi.”
Be my bride.Kayama Yūzō
For men in their 70s, the Showa-era star Yuzo Kayama is someone everyone has probably admired at least once.
He was hugely successful not only as an actor but also as an artist.
He’s left behind many classic songs, and among them, the one I especially recommend is O-Yome ni Oide (Come Be My Bride).
Its Hawaiian-influenced melody is striking.
Although the song may feel fast overall, the vocal line moves at a relaxed pace, so when you actually sing it, you’ll likely find the rhythm easy to follow.
Plus, because the song has a narrow vocal range, anyone can sing it easily as long as the key is adjusted properly.
Bang, bang, bangZa Supaidāsu
I think many men in their 70s are very familiar with early rock ’n’ roll and the Group Sounds era.
With that in mind, I recommend “Ban Ban Ban.” It’s a famous song by The Spiders that still gets used in the media today.
This track is notable for its classic rock ’n’ roll sound and has virtually no sustained long notes.
Plus, the vocal range is narrow, so as long as you keep the rhythm steady, anyone should be able to sing it well.
Love only for youZa Taigāsu
The Tigers were a Group Sounds band whose musical style was strongly influenced by the Liverpool sound, such as the Beatles.
For men in their 70s, they’re a perfect-fit band.
Their hit number here is “Kimi Dake ni Ai o” (“Love Only for You”).
While it features a Liverpool-style rock sound, it also retains the singability of Japanese pop.
It is characterized by a generally narrow vocal range and an easy-to-follow rhythm.
Among the songs introduced this time, this one has an especially narrow range, so be sure to give it a try.
I don’t have an umbrella.Inoue Yosui
Yosui Inoue is one of Japan’s leading singer-songwriters, who has created numerous masterpieces across a wide musical spectrum.
Among his works, the one I particularly recommend for men in their seventies is “Kasa ga Nai” (“I Don’t Have an Umbrella”).
This piece has a strong blues character and maintains a cool, understated atmosphere throughout.
The vocal range isn’t especially wide or narrow, and because the lyrics aren’t densely packed and the rhythm is easy to feel, it’s overall an easy song to sing.
Inoue’s stylistic choice to cut off long tones abruptly is a technique that’s relatively easy to emulate even for those concerned about vocal power, so it’s well worth using as a reference.
