unconsciously / without realizing itUzaki Ryūdō
For men in their 60s, when it comes to no-nonsense male singer-songwriters, Ryudo Uzaki is likely the first name that comes to mind.
He has many classic songs, but the one I especially recommend for aiming for a high score is Shira zu Shira zu no Uchi ni.
This piece is set within a relatively narrow range of mid1 B to mid2 C#, and the vocal line maintains a gentle, even contour.
However, because it calls for expressive elements like shouts and breath control, if you want to show appeal beyond just scoring points, I recommend mastering overtones that are effective in the low to low-mid range.

The warm sound and elegant strings—pleasantly subverting the typical image of techno—are truly stunning.
