Energizing Japanese songs recommended for women in their 60s (31–40)
Don’t give up on your dreamsOkamura Takako
This is a supportive song that gently portrays the feelings of someone about to set off on a new journey.
Takako Okamura’s warm voice, singing about the importance of holding on to your passion for your dreams, quietly gives listeners a push forward.
Along with its melodious tune, the lyrics—filled with kindness and consideration for others—resonate deeply.
Included on the album “Andantino a tempo,” the song was released in February 1987 and was used in commercials for Musashi Prep School and as an insert song for “Netto Koshien.” In 2005, it was also chosen as the theme song for the film “Gyakkyō Nine.” It’s a track you’ll want to listen to when you’re about to take a new step or find yourself at a crossroads in life.
Seven-colored Stardust3B junior
This is an idol song written and composed by Kousetsu Minami of Kaguyahime.
Performed by a lineup of idols including Momoiro Clover and Shiritsu Ebisu Chugaku, the track is a modern “poppo” song that retains the feel of Showa-era folk music.
Tiger & DragonCRAZY KEN BAND
Vocalist Ken Yokoyama delivers an incredibly cool, rugged performance that epitomizes what a Showa-era delinquent should be.
It’s a Heisei-era song, but the vibe—its coolness, swagger, and nostalgia—is pure Showa.
I highly recommend it to anyone in their 60s.
While Ken Yokoyama’s charisma draws the eye, the rest of the band is also top-notch—their playing is superb.
Definitely give it a listen.
U.S.A.DA PUMP
DA PUMP’s first single in about three and a half years is a cover of Joe Yellow’s “U.S.A.” The Eurobeat groove is super uplifting, and the zany dance moves and quirky costumes make the song exciting.
Even though it’s a new track, it has a nostalgic dance vibe, so it’s recommended for people in their 60s as well.
The One and Only Flower in the WorldSMAP
It’s a classic song by SMAP, the group that unfortunately disbanded after internal conflicts they couldn’t resolve.
Written and composed by Noriyuki Makihara, it became a nationwide hit.
It’s a universally uplifting, positive anthem that resonates with listeners of any generation and gives them strength.
Please sing it together with your grandchild.
Energizing Japanese Songs Recommended for Women in Their 60s (41–50)
in one goTonneruzu
This was essentially the debut single of Tunnels, who were comedians but boasted idol-level popularity at the time.
It’s a lively, comedic song that brings back memories of the peak of the bubble era.
It’s definitely energizing, but please never do chugging!
Oba Reggaeobachaan
This is the second single by Oba-Chan, the Osaka auntie idol group.
Even if you get a little fed up with the thick, pushy, meddlesome vibe of Osaka aunties, there’s no doubt you’ll feel energized.
“I can do my best too”—that’s surely how it will make you feel.
