Karaoke songs recommended for women in their 60s that are easy to sing even for the tone-deaf (31–40)
Festival MamboMisora Hibari
This is a single record released by Hibari Misora in 1952.
Set to the then-popular mambo rhythm, the song was created around the theme of the festival-loving spirit of Edo natives.
Among Hibari Misora’s hit songs, it became especially beloved for its bright, light, and lively rhythm, and it remains a popular choice for karaoke.
Roppongi HeartbreakAn Ruisu
Ann Lewis’s signature song “Roppongi Shinju.” A rock number that symbolizes the bubble era, it became a nationwide hit, helped by its strikingly mismatched title pairing Roppongi with “double suicide.” Notably, the song has a very narrow vocal range, with the lowest note at mid2 D and the highest at hi A.
While the nature of the rock style calls for a slightly raspy, shouted delivery, the narrow range and mid-tempo BPM make it an excellent choice for aiming at high karaoke scores.
Be sure to add it to your repertoire.
Love is overŌyō Fifi
It’s a single released by Fifi Ouyang in 1979 that reached number one on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart and has become one of her signature songs in Japan.
Covered by many artists, it’s a classic heartbreak song cherished across generations.
Anemone flaccida (nirinsō; literally “two-flowered anemone”)kawanaka miyuki
This is one of Miyuki Kawanaka’s signature songs, released as a single in 1998.
It won the Excellent Work Award and the Arrangement Award at the 40th Japan Record Awards.
A duet version was also released, and she has performed this song at the NHK Kohaku Uta Gassen five times.
With its gentle, easy-to-follow rhythm, it’s a fun song to sing at karaoke.
Playback Part 2Yamaguchi Momoe
Momoe Yamaguchi’s classic “Playback Part 2,” which gained nationwide popularity with its novel setting at a traffic accident scene.
While the song features a somewhat unconventional structure, including bold break points, it boasts exceptional singability thanks to its very narrow range of mid2 A# to Hi A#.
The tricky part is the section that enters the chorus after the late-stage break point, so be sure to count the beats carefully before you come in.
It’s a huge hit at karaoke, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.
