Karaoke songs recommended for women in their 60s that are easy to sing even for those who are tone-deaf (11–20)
chaosKoyanagi Rumiko
Rumiko Koyanagi’s classic “Ran.” She has produced numerous masterpieces, but this piece can be said to showcase her sensuality most vividly.
It was composed by Koji Tamaki, who colored the music scene of the 1980s.
True to Tamaki’s style, the song features a vocal line imbued with allure, yet its foundation remains firmly in Showa-era kayōkyoku, so you’ll likely find it surprisingly easy to sing in practice.
If the brief high note that appears in the chorus feels tough, try boldly raising the key and singing that part in falsetto.
I just can’t stopYamamoto Rinda
Linda Yamamoto’s classic hit “Dōnimo Tomaranai.” Because the melody is crafted to feel energetic and sharp, I don’t think many people get the impression that this song is easy to sing.
However, surprisingly, the vocal line is put together in a very simple structure.
There are no long sustained notes either, so even if you can’t do vibrato, as long as you can keep time with the rhythm, anyone can sing it in a convincing way.
It’s an easy piece—definitely check it out.
JunTakahashi Mariko
Mariko Takahashi’s classic song “Jun.” It’s a piece that portrays a heartbreak with a man named Jun, and the melody is just unbearably, achingly sad.
From a musical perspective, however, the song features a very singable vocal line, so it’s well worth remembering if you aim for the emotive vocal style of Showa-era pop.
The contrast between the chorus and the verse is very clear, making it a great recommendation for those who want an easy-to-sing piece to train their dynamics.
Be sure to add it to your repertoire.
Door of LifeTakeuchi Mariya
A song by Mariya Takeuchi released in 2007.
In the context of her overall career, it’s a mid-period work, so it might not be from the generation of women in their 50s, but it is extremely popular among fans.
Its appeal lies in lyrics whose depth becomes clearer with age, paired with a warm melody crafted to match.
The vocal range is slightly wide at mid1E to hiC#, but the pitch movement is gentle, making it a relatively easy song to sing overall.
There’s an English lyric section in the middle, so if you’re unsure about pronunciation, make sure to drill the linking beforehand.
Shiretoko Ryojo (Shiretoko Travel Sentiment)Katō Tokiko
The original song was written by Hisaya Morishige, who was both an actor and a singer, and was released in 1960.
The Tokiko Kato version introduced here was included on her 1970 album “Nihon Aikashu” (Collection of Japanese Laments) and was released as a single the following year.
As a song sometimes noted for having an opening melody similar to “Soushunfu” (Early Spring Score), it features a very easy-to-sing melody reminiscent of songs you might find in a school music textbook—what are often called Ministry of Education songs.
Along with Kato’s consistently calm vocal delivery, it’s a piece that’s very easy to remember and sing.
Throughout, please sing gently and softly.
The key to making it sound good is to relax and sing without forcing it.
cosmos (flower)Yamaguchi Momoe
Momoe Yamaguchi’s 19th single, released in October 1977.
At the time, Yamaguchi was actively collaborating with musicians from the so-called ‘new music’ scene that was breaking out in Japan.
For this song, Masashi Sada handled both the lyrics and composition.
To emphasize the song’s gentle, soft atmosphere, the original chorus features extensive use of falsetto (head voice).
To sing this song in the original key, mastering how effectively you can use falsetto will likely be the key point.
Incidentally, Yamaguchi herself would lower the key when performing on music shows.
If possible, it’s a song you’ll want to practice a bit of falsetto for and try singing in the original key with a focus on capturing the mood.

Marilyn in 1986Honda Minako
Minako Honda won popularity for her truly accomplished singing ability that you wouldn’t expect from an idol.
Even among women in their 60s who dislike idols, many say they make an exception for her.
Speaking of her signature songs, it has to be 1986 no Marilyn.
For an idol of that era, it had a decidedly mature tone, and its sultriness even connects to the mood-kayo (mood ballad) style.
While there are sections with somewhat drastic pitch jumps, the overall range is on the narrow side, so most women should be able to sing it without issue.
