Recommended for Women in Their 60s! Karaoke Songs That Get the Crowd Going (41–50)

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.

foreignerKUBOTA Saki

Saki Kubota’s biggest hit song, “Ihoujin.” Chances are, everyone has sung this piece at least once.

Because the vocal range is fairly wide, many people may feel it’s difficult, but the truth is the vocal line is quite simple.

If the height makes it hard to sing, adjust the key so you can use chest voice—not mixed voice—for the high phrases in the A section and the chorus.

Doing so will also make it much easier to keep your pitch in check.

Is it true that you’re getting married?Da Kāpo

This is an early big hit by the folk duo Da Capo, formed in 1973 by Hiroko Kubota and Masatoshi Sakakibara.

Kubota’s clear, transparent singing voice, paired with Sakakibara’s unobtrusive harmonies supporting her from behind, evokes a hint of sadness within its brightness.

Incidentally, seven years after the song’s release, the two actually got married.

Like the flow of a riverMisora Hibari

A gem of a masterpiece released in April 1989 by Hibari Misora, this song extols the beauty of living by surrendering yourself to the waves of life.

It was the final track released in her lifetime, created with a message for younger generations.

Personally chosen by Hibari herself, the song likens the flow of life to a river, expressing the importance of believing that peaceful times will eventually come, even when faced with hardships and challenges.

Highly recommended for those who want to enjoy a heartfelt moment at karaoke.

This work offers a chance for self-reflection—why not make your time at karaoke even more special with this song?

Heavenly KissMatsuda Seiko

Seiko Matsuda has many famous songs, but for women in their early 50s, “Heavenly Kiss” may be the one that left the strongest impression.

Among her tracks, this piece is especially characterized by its refreshing melody, yet surprisingly its vocal range isn’t particularly wide.

The English lyrics in the chorus might be a tricky part, but as long as you can pronounce them clearly, it’s quite a singable song.

If you were on Team Seiko back in the day and are now in your 50s, why not give this one a try?
