[Men in their 60s] Even if you're not good at singing, it's okay! Easy-to-sing songs for karaoke

Can’t Say Anything… SummerTHE JAYWALK

[Official] J-WALK “Speechless… Summer”

J-WALK has released many classic songs.

Their success up until Koichi Nakamura left the band was remarkable, and they had a large number of male fans.

I believe many men in their 60s were fans as well.

Their biggest hit, “Nani mo Ienakute…

Natsu,” is highly recommended as an easy song to sing.

The vocal line has little fluctuation, and there aren’t any particularly high parts, so people of any vocal range can sing it comfortably by adjusting the key.

However, since the song includes many long tones, you’ll need to sing with a volume that your diaphragm stamina can handle.

As long as you keep that in mind, it’s a song with which you can aim for a high score in karaoke rating systems.

ForeverGosuperāzu

The Gospellers “To Eternity” at International Forum 2017/7/9 Short Ver.

This classic song, which celebrates an eternal bond with a loved one, gently conveys the idea that love, precisely because it has no form, cannot be broken.

Its strong feelings of thinking about someone across physical distance resonate in the heart alongside beautiful harmonies.

Released in August 2000, the song stayed on the Oricon charts for an impressive 44 weeks and was also used as the opening theme for TV Tokyo’s “JAPAN COUNTDOWN.” One of its charms lies in the variety of arrangements unique to The Gospellers, such as the “Album Version” on the album Soul Serenade and the “unplugged live version” included on the single Hitori.

It remains a beloved track—one you’ll want to sing after chatting with friends, as you think of someone dear to you.

Speak not of lifeyoshida takurou

Takuro Yoshida - Don’t Speak of Life (lyrics)Don’t speak of life like you know it allDon’t speak of love like you’ve got it downDon’t speak of dreams the way someone else doesDon’t speak of life, don’t speak of lifeIf you’re gonna talk, then sing it outIf you’re gonna love, then give it allIf you’re gonna dream, then stake your lifeDon’t speak of life, don’t speak of lifeWhen the wind blows through the town at duskI stop and listen to my heartI remember someone I used to loveAnd I feel like I can almost see them nowDon’t speak of life like you know it allDon’t speak of love like you’ve got it downDon’t speak of dreams the way someone else doesDon’t speak of life, don’t speak of lifeIf you’re gonna cry, then cry it outIf you’re gonna laugh, then laugh out loudIf you’re gonna live, then live it throughDon’t speak of life, don’t speak of lifeOn a night when the rain won’t seem to stopI walk with my collar turned upI hum a tune that no one knowsAnd I feel like I can almost flyDon’t speak of life like you know it allDon’t speak of love like you’ve got it downDon’t speak of dreams the way someone else doesDon’t speak of life, don’t speak of lifeIf you’re gonna talk, then sing it outIf you’re gonna love, then give it allIf you’re gonna dream, then stake your lifeDon’t speak of life, don’t speak of life

It’s a song whose powerful vocals, singing of the doubts and inner struggles we face in life, are deeply moving.

It was included on the 1974 album “Ima wa Mada Jinsei o Katarazu,” whose title is said to have been taken from this song’s lyrics.

While the rhythm is calm yet strong—making the tempo approachable even for beginners—the melody is also simple and easy to sing.

However, to convey the atmosphere of the piece, passionate, heartfelt singing is essential.

It’s important to imagine how to flow the words and where in each phrase to apply emphasis.

It was spring, wasn’t it?yoshida takurou

It Was Spring 2014 Takuro Yoshida

An uptempo track that sets the tone for the fourth album “Genki Desu,” released in 1972.

Takuro’s cool vocals breezily sing of the fleeting nature of love.

With an extremely low range—its lowest note is mid1 A#—this song is a godsend for men with lower voices.

While the dense lyrics and quick delivery can be a bit challenging, its comfortable, soothing sense of drive makes it easy to sing! Perfect for spring karaoke or when you want to get hyped with one of Takuro’s rock numbers.

Wandering Love SongNagabuchi Tsuyoshi

Wandering Love Song

Released after his 1978 re-debut and still known today as a live staple, Jyunrenka is his second single overall.

The blues harp’s wistful tone and the sentimental lyrics evoke the charm of classic folk songs.

With an overall relaxed tempo—including a driving chorus—and a relatively narrow vocal range, it’s easy to sing even for those who aren’t confident singers.

If possible, mimicking Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi’s current vibe will likely hype up the karaoke, too.

It’s an immortal masterpiece.

Another SaturdayHamada Shogo

Another Saturday (We are still on the road.)

It’s a bittersweet song that portrays episodes of a possibly unrequited love and the intensifying emotions that come with it.

Released in 1985 as the B-side to the single “LONELY – Ai to Iu Yakusokugoto,” it gradually became one of Shogo Hamada’s signature ballads despite not being the title track.

The progression, centered on piano with layered strings, accentuates the heartache and poignant atmosphere.

Its gentle, conversational tempo makes it easy to sing; conveying emotion while delivering it quietly and tenderly is key.

Sexual Violet No. 1Kuwana Masahiro

Masahiro Kuwana - Sexual Violet No. 1

Masahiro Kuwana is a rock singer who enjoys overwhelming popularity in the Kansai region.

For those in their 50s and 60s, he’s a familiar artist, and many men may have admired him.

Among Kuwana’s songs, the one I especially recommend is Sexual Violet No.

1.

While there are slightly higher parts at the end of the chorus and right before the chorus, the rest stays in the low to mid range, making it relatively easy to sing.

Be sure to check it out.
