Sunset SongKondō Masahiko
Masahiko Kondo, who left behind many classic hits as an idol representing the Showa era.
I think many men aren’t interested in male idols, but there are probably quite a few men in their early 60s who made an exception for this song, Yuyake no Uta (Sunset Song).
This piece has a distinctly mature, cool vibe, characterized by a melody that leans somewhat toward enka.
The vocal range is about average, but because the vocal line captures the familiar enka-like feel that Japanese listeners are accustomed to, I think it’s very easy to sing.
promiseWatanabe Toru
Toru Watanabe, who was hugely active as an actor and TV personality, also worked as a singer and left behind several classic songs.
Among them, the one I especially recommend is Yakusoku (Promise).
This piece features a moody melody that feels like a blend of J-pop and kayōkyoku.
The vocal line, like the calm melody, is kept understated.
There are few parts where the voice needs to be belted, and there aren’t many long sustained notes either, so it’s highly recommended.
My good friendKamayatsu Hiroshi
As a member of The Spiders, Hiroshi Kamayatsu helped ignite Japan’s Group Sounds boom.
After going solo, he continued to produce many classic songs with refined musical sensibilities.
Among his works, the one I especially recommend to men in their 60s for its ease of singing is “Waga Yoki Tomo yo” (“My Good Friend”).
Though the melody has a cool, mature tone, the vocal line is surprisingly light and comes together with an unexpectedly simple feel.
The range is narrow and there are no sections that require belting, so it should be easy for anyone to sing.
My Dear EllieSazan Ōrusutāzu
This is Southern All Stars’ third single, released in March 1979.
It’s truly a classic of Showa-era New Music and a pop ballad masterpiece.
If you’re in your 60s, there’s probably no one who hasn’t heard it.
When singing this at karaoke, I think the biggest tip for making it sound good is not to try too hard to sing it perfectly.
Put your feelings into it and enjoy.
I also think it’s totally fine to have fun by singing it in a Kuwa-chan (Keisuke Kuwata) impression!
Forever with youKayama Yūzō
This was the fifth single overall by Showa-era superstar Yuzo Kayama, released in December 1965.
It sold over three million copies and received a Special Award at the 8th Japan Record Awards in 1966—truly a classic of the Showa era.
Kayama’s resonant, commanding vocals are so outstanding that some people might hesitate to sing it at karaoke, but the melody is very simple and easy to hum, so don’t be afraid to give it a try.
If you aim your voice toward your lower jaw inside your mouth and let your chest resonate firmly as you sing, you can get closer to the depth of tone that he has.
And when you sing it at karaoke, don’t forget to recreate the spoken-line part, too!
Ruby RingTerao Akira
This is the sixth single by Japanese actor and singer Akira Terao, released in February 1981.
The composition was written by Terao himself.
It sold close to two million copies in total and won the 23rd Japan Record Award that same year—a classic of the Showa era.
According to Terao, he wrote the song with the group Alice—who were enjoying great success in the New Music scene at the time—in mind.
The melody, the way the lyrics ride over it, and the song structure are all quite simple, making it very easy to sing for karaoke.
A key point is to let the low notes at the end of each phrase resonate fully.
Try producing your voice so it feels like it’s striking your lower jaw inside your mouth, and use solid chest resonance when you sing.
MotherMori Shinichi
This is a single released by Shinichi Mori in 1971, with lyrics by Yasunori Kawauchi and composition/arrangement by Kimio Inomata.
It was performed eight times on NHK’s Kōhaku Uta Gassen and has become one of Mori’s signature songs.
The piece matches Mori’s distinctive husky voice, and many artists have covered it.
