[Men in their 60s] Even if you’re not good at singing, it’s okay! Karaoke songs that are easy to sing (141–150)

It’s nothing good.Nagabuchi Tsuyoshi

The lyrics, sung over a simple 8-beat with a light acoustic guitar backing and a striking piano tone, depict the unique conflicts and impatience of adolescence, resonating with young people across generations.

Released as a single in 1987, “Rokuna Mon Ja Nee” served as the theme song for the drama Oyako Zigzag, in which Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi himself starred.

With its ultra-famous chorus that’s almost beyond words and the explosive moment where he shouts the title, it’s a masterpiece with tremendous impact.

It’s also a karaoke staple, so many people likely choose this one when singing a Nagabuchi song.

Since it doesn’t demand extremely high notes and is relatively easy to sing, it’s all the more important to dive in with the energy of fully becoming Nagabuchi himself!

I’m going to Tokyo.Yoshi Ikuzo

This is a single released by Ikuzo Yoshi in 1984, with lyrics and music written by Yoshi himself.

The lyrics tell the story of a protagonist leaving their rural hometown to head for Tokyo.

The rap-like style of the lyrics caused a stir at the time, and today it stands as one of Yoshi’s signature songs—often used for parody versions at karaoke and a tune you can thoroughly enjoy singing.

Itsuro Oizumi / Mago (Grandchild)

It was released in 1999 as Itsuro Oizumi’s major-label debut single.

It topped the Oricon enka chart for 26 consecutive weeks, sold over a million copies, and earned him a spot at the 51st NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen.

People in their 60s who have grandchildren find many parts of the lyrics relatable, and it’s also a very popular song for karaoke.

Do whatever the hell you want.sawada kenji

This was Kenji Sawada’s 19th single, released in May 1977.

It won the Grand Prize at the 19th Japan Record Awards held that same year, among many other accolades—a Showa-era kayō classic everyone knows! As of 2023, I imagine many Japanese men in their 60s were glued to the TV back then watching him perform.

I’m in my mid-50s, and I still remember singing this song at a fun class event in elementary school and getting rave reviews.

Of course, I also copied the part where he throws his hat mid-song (lol).

If you sing it at karaoke, be sure to imitate those bits too and have a blast!

In conclusion

Even if you’ve been avoiding karaoke because you’re tone-deaf, you’ve probably realized that you can still have a great time by choosing songs that are easy to sing. Just keeping a few simple points in mind—like key, tempo, and how easy the rhythm is to follow—can make songs much easier to sing. Start without pressure and try one song that feels comfortable for you!
