Karaoke songs recommended for women in their 60s that are easy to sing even for those who are tone-deaf (61–70)
SWEET MEMORIESMatsuda Seiko
Seiko Matsuda’s classic “SWEET MEMORIES.” Because it’s still covered by many artists today, it’s loved not only by women in their 60s but also by younger generations.
It’s also a very easy song to sing.
While it may give the impression of being somewhat high, its vocal range isn’t actually that wide.
The melodic rises and falls are relatively gentle, so even those who struggle with pitch should be able to sing it smoothly.
Be sure to add it to your repertoire.
ScandalTeresa Ten
Teresa Teng’s songs are full of that quintessential ’80s vibe.
You can especially hear it in the synthesizers and the vocal lines.
This track, “Scandal,” is unusual for a Teresa Teng song in that its vocal line is crafted more like a 1970s idol tune.
It features a melody that leans somewhat toward doo-wop, and in contrast to the sprightly rhythm, the vocal line is characterized by a narrow range and gentle, gradual pitch movement.
evening cicadaNagayama Yōko
It was released in 1993 as Yoko Nagayama’s re-debut single after transitioning from idol singer to enka artist.
The song was used as the theme for the MBS/TBS drama series “Inochi no Tabiji,” and it became Nagayama’s biggest hit.
Thanks to the success of this song, she achieved her long-cherished dream of making her first appearance at the 44th NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen.
TouchIwasaki Yoshimi
A gem of a masterpiece that beautifully captures the bittersweetness of youthful love.
Told from the perspective of a female protagonist, its lyrical story vividly conveys the feelings of a girl in love.
Yoshimi Iwasaki’s clear, luminous vocals make the emotions of pure love all the more enchanting.
Released in March 1985, the song achieved remarkable success as the theme for the anime Touch, reaching No.
12 on the Oricon Weekly Chart and No.
39 on the Year-End Ranking.
With its gentle melody and relaxed tempo, it’s a song that’s easy to sing calmly.
Share it at karaoke with close friends, and it’s sure to become a wonderful memory.
Deceived by a guy like HiroshiMizue Takada
Mizue Takada is an idol singer who gained popularity in the late 1970s with her calm vocals.
Thanks to her musical style, many of her songs are easy to sing, but the one I especially recommend is “Sonna Hiroshi ni Damasarete.” It features a vibe somewhat close to surf music, yet the vocal line itself has gently contained pitch movement, making it very easy to sing.
There are quite a few long tones, but since they fade out, you should be able to sing them without needing much lung capacity.
Love VacationZa Pīnattsu
A classic that weaves the sweet memories of summer sun and love with a light, jazzy rhythm and the duo’s beautiful harmonies.
Its lyrics poetically depict lovers talking about love by the seaside, while its fresh arrangement brilliantly blends different musical genres.
After its release in April 1963, The Peanuts performed the song at the 14th NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen.
It was also used as the campaign song for Toray’s summer wear “Vacance Look,” helping popularize the word “vacance” in Japan.
The swingy four-beat rhythm is easy on the ears, making it a cheerful song to sing.
It’s a perfect pick for those who want to have fun and liven things up with friends.
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?
