Great songs recommended for people in their 30s: Classic and popular Japanese tracks (21–30)
LOVE MachineMōningu Musume.
This was their seventh single, released in 1999, and the first by the group to sell over a million copies.
This song propelled them to nationwide idol status.
It became a social phenomenon, and people in their 30s in particular are likely to feel nostalgic about it.
AutomaticUtada Hikaru
It’s a debut single released in 1998.
Despite being in her teens at the time, her overwhelming vocal power and mature presence sparked the hit.
The lyrics are also very profound and were said to be so well-crafted that it was hard to believe they were written by a teenage girl.
fairylandHamasaki Ayumi
Ayumi Hamasaki’s classic “fairyland.” Because it’s a very upbeat song, many women in their 30s may avoid it thinking it’s too high, but surprisingly the vocal range isn’t that wide; it stays within mid1F to hiD.
What makes it easy to sing isn’t just that—the tempo is slightly slow at BPM 112, and the pitch movement is fairly consistent.
If you carefully track the pitch, you can aim for a high score at karaoke without any issues, so definitely consider adding it to your repertoire.
Mikan HeartC&K
C&K, a duo vocal unit, released the memorably titled “Mikan Heart” in 2013.
The lyrics make it an exceptionally heartrending love song.
It’s a song that lets you have a good cry and leaves your heart feeling refreshed.
sasanqua (Camellia sasanqua)SEKAI NO OWARI
There are times when you chase your dreams all the way to this point and things still don’t go well—it can be painful, right? But this song makes you realize there are people who support you and watch over you as you work your heart out.
It’s also a warm song that makes you want to become that kind of person yourself.
threadNakajima Miyuki
It is included on the 35th single, “Inochi no Betsumei / Ito,” released in 1998.
Both songs were used as the theme for the TBS drama “Seija no Koshin” (March of the Saints).
It’s a characteristically Miyuki Nakajima song, sung at an unhurried pace, with deeply moving lyrics.
DepartureFUNKY MONKEY BABYS
FUNKY MONKEY BABYS’ seventh single, “Tabidachi” (“Departure”).
Released in 2008, it didn’t become an explosive hit, but it still enjoyed moderate success: it was chosen as the theme song for the film “Bokutachi to Chuzaishan no 700 Nichi Sensō” (The 700 Days’ War: Us and the Police Officer) and reached No.
10 on the Oricon weekly chart.
Men in their early 30s may find it familiar.
In short, the song features a fairly simple, uniform vocal line with very gentle pitch movement.
However, it contains a fair number of long notes and the overall range is somewhat high, so it’s necessary to set the key so you can sustain long tones at a relatively high pitch.
