Karaoke Crowd-Pleasers Recommended for Men in Their 60s (71–80)
To the most important personTonneruzu
The classic Tunnels song “To the Most Important Person.” When it comes to Tunnels’ tracks, this is probably the first one many people think of.
Contrary to its masculine melody, the vocal line is surprisingly straightforward.
Its narrow range is particularly notable, keeping every part in the low to lower-mid register.
This is the easiest range for men in their 50s to sing, so it should be perfectly manageable for karaoke at after-parties or late-night gatherings.
Consider adding it to your repertoire.
Sunset SongKondō Masahiko
As a leading idol of the Showa era, Masahiko Kondo left behind many classic songs.
While many men have little interest in male idols, I imagine quite a few men in their late 50s made an exception for this song, “Yuuyake no Uta.” This work exudes a mature, understated cool, featuring a melody with a hint of enka.
The vocal range is fairly average, but because the vocal lines embody the familiar enka-like feel that Japanese listeners are accustomed to, it’s very easy to sing.
Sake, Tears, Men, and WomenKawashima Eigo
Even men who always act cool sometimes feel like letting loose and forgetting everything.
“Sake, Tears, Men and Women,” which captures those feelings, was Eigo Kawashima’s solo debut single released in 1976.
Originally, it was included on the debut album Jinrui (Humanity), released in 1975 by the group Eigo Kawashima & Homo Sapiens, to which Kawashima belonged.
Men in their sixties who have tasted both the bitter and the sweet of life may also have things they’d rather forget, just like in this song.
At times like that, sing this tune and let it all out!
Karaoke crowd-pleasers recommended for men in their 60s (81–90)
Twilight GinzaKurosawa Akira & Rosu Purimosu
A classic of mood kayō, a Showa-era pop style featuring sexy, atmospheric vocals set to danceable rhythms like Latin, jazz, and Hawaiian.
The Latin chorus group singing this song, Akira Kurosawa and Los Primos, was formed in 1961.
They shot to fame when “Love You Tokyo,” the B-side to their 1966 single “Namida to Tomo ni” (With Tears), became a huge hit.
Azusa No. 2karyūdō
A debut single by the Showa-era brother duo Kariudo from Okazaki City, Aichi Prefecture, and also their biggest hit.
It was the best-selling song of 1977, and they performed it at that year’s NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen.
The lyrics portray a worldview of endings and beginnings, depicting a departure to Nagano together with a new boyfriend.
The song is notable for its dramatic melody and structure.
I’ve always liked you.Saitō Kazuyoshi
A lyrical love song filled with memories and lingering feelings from youth.
The gentle tones of the acoustic guitar and a voice that resonates in the heart quietly convey unfulfilled feelings and a love that passed by.
Kazuyoshi Saito’s tender vocals and guitar beautifully express nostalgia for the past and the emotions of the present.
Released in April 2010, it drew attention as the theme song for Shiseido’s IN&ON series commercials.
Since February 2017, it has also been used in Ito En’s “Oi Ocha” commercials, continuing to comfort many listeners.
It’s a song you’ll want to hum at class reunions or during long-awaited get-togethers, wrapped in fond memories.
Sing it with friends at karaoke, and its universally relatable lyrics will warm everyone’s hearts.
Bridge of Gloryyuzu
This moving, hope-filled ballad stirred hearts as the official NHK theme song for the 2004 Athens Olympics.
Singing of the unseen efforts and the path walked while facing forward, it powerfully encourages us to keep moving toward the future.
Yuzu’s acoustic tones and warm vocals resonate deeply with listeners.
Together with the iconic commentary from the men’s gymnastics team’s first gold medal in 28 years, it has been etched into the memories of many.
It’s a song that can bring people together across generations—perfect for livening up gatherings with friends or family, meals, and parties.
