VoyageHamasaki Ayumi

Ayumi Hamasaki’s 28th single “Voyage” is striking for its grand, orchestral sound.

Its vocal range spans from mid1F to hiD#, which is fairly wide and, true to her style, sits on the higher side overall.

That said, the melodic movement is relatively gentle, and with a BPM of 90, it shouldn’t be difficult to follow the pitch.

Since high notes occur in succession, if you’re not confident in your upper range, it’s recommended to lower the key by one semitone from the standard key before singing.
