A perfect song for anyone who has parted ways with someone important to chase their dreams.

Released in November 1981 as Hiroko Yakushimaru’s debut single, it became a huge hit as the theme song for the film of the same name.

With its simple melody and careful, heartfelt vocals, it felt fresh amid the fierce idol boom of the time.

It was also used as an insert song in the anime Maison Ikkoku, making it beloved across generations.

Recommended for women in their 60s! Songs that liven up karaoke (51–60)

Invisible Manpinku redii

Pink Lady’s classic hit “Invisible Man,” which made waves for its distinctive theme and lyrics.

Although the song exudes a very lively vibe, it was released early in their career, and its overall difficulty is relatively low.

In fact, the vocal range is fairly narrow, and the melody line isn’t complex.

Easy to sing yet guaranteed to get a crowd going, this track is perfectly suited as an upbeat number for women in their 60s.

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.

WINK, a duo representing 1980s synth-pop.

Their vocals have a pleasantly laid-back quality, and that relaxed vibe earned them a passionate following among certain listeners.

Their song “Lonely Tropical Fish” is their biggest hit.

Because it features high-note phrases, it’s often misunderstood as being difficult to score well at karaoke.

In reality, there aren’t large melodic leaps within each section.

The high parts and mid-range parts are clearly separated, so if you can use mixed voice or falsetto, you shouldn’t have trouble staying on pitch.

younger boykyandīzu

Candies, an idol group that left behind many classic hits.

Known for their catchy songs, they have many pieces that are easy to sing.

Among them, the one I especially recommend is “Toshishita no Otokonoko” (Boy Younger Than Me).

While it sometimes features a slightly jazzy arrangement, most of the vocal entrances are on the beat, so it’s easy to grasp the rhythm.

The vocal range is narrow, making it easy to sing; however, be careful with the “shi” sound in the “to-shi-shi-ta” part near the end of the chorus, as it can be a bit difficult to pronounce.

If you keep practicing by holding a disposable chopstick in your mouth and projecting your voice broadly, your pronunciation of “i” and “shi” will become stronger—give it a try.

Hiromi Iwasaki’s classic “Cinderella Honeymoon,” frequently used on variety shows and the like, was once treated almost like a comic song, but nowadays it can surely be called a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.

The song’s easiest-to-sing point is, above all, the chorus.

While the highest notes appear in the pre-chorus, that high phrase only lasts about three to four seconds, and the chorus itself sits in the mid-to-lower range, making it a song that doesn’t depend on the singer’s vocal range.

Lips, speak passionately of youWatanabe Machiko

Machiko Watanabe “Lips, Speak Passionately of You” OFFICIAL Lyric Video
Lips, speak passionately of youWatanabe Machiko

Machiko Watanabe is a female singer-songwriter who gained popularity for her powerful vocals.

She has left many classic songs, and among them, “Kuchibiru yo, Atsuku Kimi o Katare” is particularly easy to sing.

Because of her strong voice, it may sound difficult at first listen, but there aren’t many intricate pitch fluctuations.

However, there is a brief moment in the chorus where a falsetto appears.

Adjust the key so that you can either sing that part in chest voice or hit the falsetto in the most comfortable key for you.
