Karaoke songs in Western music that are easy for women in their 60s to sing. World-famous classics and recommended popular songs (1–10)
It’s So EasyLinda Ronstadt
A female musician who was active from the 1970s to the 1980s.
With overwhelming vocal power, a stunning figure, and a coquettish charm, Linda kept captivating audiences.
This single comes from the period when she was really on a roll.
Of course, she went on to keep challenging various genres and continued to thrive, but Linda during this era was truly the best.
The RoseBette Midler
Commercial songs are often used as TV drama theme songs or insert songs, so few people may know that this beautiful piece is actually the theme song of a film modeled on the turbulent half-life of Janis Joplin.
For those who know Janis’s life, both the song and the film are special and naturally bring tears to your eyes.
The setting in which the protagonist, Rose, dies on stage seems to convey the creators’ tribute to Janis, who passed away in a hotel room—and that, too, makes you cry.
Even if (I’m) wet in the rainB.J.Thomas
An insert song from the film Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, which was based on two real-life bank robbers.
If you think about it rationally, it’s just a story about rough, villainous thieves with no room for sympathy, but Paul Newman and Robert Redford as Butch and Sundance are cool to the end, and Katharine Ross as the heroine, Etta, was beautiful.
There’s a bucolic scene where they, rushing headlong toward ruin, briefly enjoy a moment of peace to the backdrop of this song; along with the shocking final freeze-frame, it has stayed with me strongly.
The tune is breezy and bright, so I want to sing it with a sense of fun and humor.
Time After TimeCyndi Lauper
A timeless masterpiece from Cyndi’s debut album, released as the third single—still fresh even 40 years on.
Its level of perfection at debut was astonishing.
The lyrics resonate deeply whether sung by a man or a woman.
Even in the heyday of MTV, this music video stood out, gripping viewers’ hearts and never letting go.
A song you’ll want to sing on a slightly chilly night by candlelight.
Close To YouCarpenters
Among the Carpenters’ catalog, the classic “(They Long to Be) Close to You” stands out as one of their most beloved hits.
Released in the 1970s, this love song portrays a woman pining for someone she adores.
Musically, it sits squarely in the realm of classic pop, with a brisk yet gentle melody.
The English lyrics flow smoothly, and the vocal range isn’t particularly wide, making it an easy song to sing.
You can certainly perform it in the style of the original, but a downbeat, whispery approach—like Billie Eilish’s—also sounds compelling.
Give it a try for inspiration.
