Karaoke songs recommended for women in their 60s that are easy to sing even for the tone-deaf (31–40)
Farewell SongNakajima Miyuki
Miyuki Nakajima is a female singer-songwriter who has created many classic songs with lyrics that pierce the heart.
She has a wealth of famous tracks, but the one I especially recommend is Wakare Uta.
Though somewhat lesser-known, this piece is characterized by a melody that is particularly close to traditional kayōkyoku among her works.
Because of that, women in their 60s will likely find the vocal line especially familiar.
The vocal range is also relatively narrow, so even those who can’t hit high notes can sing it without difficulty.
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.
Life won’t give (it) to me / Unyielding lifeSegawa Eiko
It was released in 1986 as Eiko Segawa’s 40th single.
After gaining traction through cable radio, it became a massive hit, selling a total of 1.7 million copies, and she achieved her long-cherished first appearance at the 38th NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen in 1987.
While her distinctive, slightly nasal vocal tone is a hallmark, the melody stays within a relatively singable range, making the song popular for karaoke as well.
You Are the One Who Rings That BellWada Akiko
It was released in 1972 as Akiko Wada’s 11th single.
With lyrics written by Yū Aku, it became a major hit and won the Best Vocal Performance at the 14th Japan Record Awards.
She performed it six times on the NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen, and it remains one of Akiko Wada’s signature songs, enjoying immense popularity as a classic.

Because I Want to See You ~Missing You~Matsuda Seiko
It was released in 1996 as Seiko Matsuda’s 38th single.
It was used as the ending theme for TV Asahi’s “Beat Takeshi’s TV Tackle” and as the image song for Canon’s “PIXEL.” It became her biggest hit and earned her first million-seller.
As a ballad about adult love, 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.
