Karaoke crowd-pleasers recommended for men in their 60s (61–70)
Burn, you fine womantsuisuto
For men in their 60s, rock bands were likely an important part of the pages of their youth.
Among them, many probably felt their hearts race at the full-on masculinity of The TWIST’s sound.
That’s why I recommend “Moero Iiyo-na” (“Burn, Lovely Woman”).
Sera Masanori is known for his striking shouts, but he keeps them moderate on this track.
The range spans mid1 C# to hi A, which is on the slightly wider side for a male song, but not unmanageable—adjust the key and you should be able to sing it without trouble.
It’s a surefire crowd-pleaser, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
Street Corner of BetrayalKai Band
The rock band Kai Band gained popularity with their catchy lyrics, thematic depth, and wide musical range.
They’ve produced many classic songs, but the one I especially recommend is Uragiri no Machikado (Street Corner of Betrayal).
Among Kai Band’s tracks, this song has one of the narrowest vocal ranges.
Because of that, it’s very easy to sing even for people in their 60s who may struggle to hit higher notes.
At after-parties and karaoke, your throat can take a beating, so if you want something easier to sing, definitely give this one a try.
Blues of the DawnItsuki Hiroshi
Hiroshi Itsuki’s “Yoake no Blues,” released in 2012.
Among the songs introduced this time, it’s relatively new, but it even reached No.
1 on the Oricon charts and is a highly popular track among enka fans.
It leans toward pop, making it easy to sing.
Winter RivieraMori Shinichi
Fuyu no Riviera by Shinichi Mori is a classic winter song that represents the Showa era.
Released in 1982, it remains popular and has been covered by many artists, including Kanjani Eight and Keizo Nakanishi.
The lyrics depict a breakup between a man and a woman, with the man who leaves first trying to keep up appearances and act cool to the very end.
For those in their 60s, this song came out right as they were transitioning from youth to adulthood.
Some may recall parting ways with someone important at a major turning point in life back then.
As you think of that person, try singing it coolly—just like Mori-san!
Flower NecklaceZa Taigāsu
Flower Necklace, the fifth single by The Tigers, a Group Sounds band from the Showa era.
Although they’re famous for having Julie (Kenji Sawada) as their lead vocalist, this song is sung by Toppo (Katsumi Kahashi).
All the Tigers members are from Kyoto.
They originally started making music inspired by The Ventures and The Beatles, but they rose to popularity through idol-style marketing.
interaction; friendly contact; bondingNakamura Masatoshi
Masatoshi Nakamura has been active across a wide range of fields as an actor and singer.
As a singer, his main profession is acting, so it’s not that he possessed exceptionally high technical skill, but his expressive vocals did help him establish a place for a time.
Among Nakamura’s songs, one I especially recommend as an easy pick for aiming high karaoke scores is Fureai.
Its vocal range is quite narrow, spanning from mid1 A to mid2 D#, the tempo is a moderate BPM 123, and the melodic movement is much gentler compared to contemporary songs, so it should be quite feasible to target a high score.
If the end of the chorus is difficult to project, instead of using mixed voice, another option is to raise the key by one or two steps and sing it in falsetto.
Like tonight’s moonElefanto Kashimashi
It’s a deeply moving masterpiece that powerfully sings of passion for the future while gazing into everyday feelings of emptiness and loneliness.
Set against the backdrop of a city at dusk, it portrays the solitude and struggles of people living in an urban landscape, yet conveys a strong will to keep looking forward and moving on.
The soulful vocals unique to Elephant Kashimashi and the melody that resonates with the heart are beautifully in harmony.
Released in July 1997, the song was used as the theme for the Fuji TV drama “Because the Moon Shines at Night,” and was also included on the album “Run Toward Tomorrow – Moonlit Songs.” In 2017, it was performed in the band’s first appearance on the NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen, winning over even more listeners.
It’s a track that will evoke deep empathy when you feel lost in life or spend a night thinking of someone dear.
