I want to sing songs with lots of falsetto. Songs that are good for practicing falsetto at karaoke (91–100).
What If StoryTani Yuuki
Tani Yuuki’s song “Moshimo Monogatari,” known as the ending theme for the long-beloved classic anime Doraemon, has the gentle warmth you’d expect from a Doraemon track.
Its range is mid1 F# to hi C#, which isn’t particularly wide, but the overall tessitura is high, so you’ll need mixed voice to sing it in the original key.
That said, it’s not an especially difficult song, making it highly recommended as practice material for developing your mixed voice.
Watercolor MoonHata Motohiro
Hata Motohiro’s masterpiece “Suisa no Tsuki” (Watercolor Moon) is distinguished by its emotional melody.
Released after his nationwide hit “Himawari no Yakusoku,” this track has a notably acoustic and calm finish.
The vocal range is mid1F to hiC, which is on the slightly narrow side, but the chorus features consecutive high notes up to hiC, making it more difficult to sing than it may sound.
If you have a higher voice, try singing the falsetto parts with mixed voice.

BittersweetNolzy
Nolzy is a multi-artist who has gained popularity for his music that adapts R&B and neo-soul into J-pop, paired with cynical lyrics.
He’s known for his stylish tracks, so many of you may already be familiar with him.
Among his songs, the one I especially recommend is Bittersweet.
The standout falsetto in this track is, without a doubt, the falsetto toward the end of the chorus.
It’s a long, very high note, packed with tremendous power and beauty.
Feverish Demonzutto mayonaka de ii no ni.
The vocal range is wide, from A#3 to E5, and the song sits generally on the higher side, but it’s easier to stay on pitch if you sing gently with a falsetto-like tone! However, relying only on falsetto can make you wobbly and tired, so be sure to focus on diaphragmatic breathing and core support to keep your voice steady.
The rap-like section before the chorus is a cool highlight, so have fun singing it while riding the rhythm! It’s a slightly fast song, so don’t forget to take breaths and give falsetto a try!
AdventureYOASOBI
This is YOASOBI’s 17th digital-only single, released in February 2023.
It was also used as Universal Studios Japan’s spring 2023 commercial song, so many of you may have heard it there.
In this track, the use of falsetto feels limited to just brief high notes within the melody, but that fleeting touch of falsetto mixed into a voice rich in higher overtones plays a very important role in creating contrast across the song.
The slightly inorganic treatment of the falsetto also works nicely.
I highly recommend this track as a karaoke or practice piece for those who are good at falsetto.
It’s also an ideal song for studying how to use falsetto within a track.
BlessingYOASOBI
This is YOASOBI’s 16th digital-only single, released in October 2022.
It was chosen as the opening theme for the TV anime Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury.
As you might expect from a track produced by Ayase, who is also active as a Vocaloid producer, YOASOBI’s vocals feature a somewhat mechanical sound design that is both characteristic and appealing.
Contributing greatly to this distinctive sense of “inorganic” texture—especially noticeable in the chorus—is ikura’s falsetto singing.
It’s another song where you can enjoy a fascinating use of falsetto voice!
NAOHY
This song is beloved as HY’s signature heartbreak anthem.
The vocalist, Izumi Nakasone, delivers a captivating falsetto.
Because she uses a fairly advanced technique, reproducing that falsetto at karaoke is a bit challenging—but sing it beautifully with feeling! Her voice truly resonates with the heart.
You can sense the unique vocal style of Okinawa.
Isn’t it a song everyone wants to try singing at least once?
