I want to be able to sing in falsetto at karaoke! But I don’t know how to choose practice songs… Many people probably share this concern.

In fact, when practicing falsetto, choosing songs with moderate melodic contours and a suitable range is the shortcut to improving.

A track that opens Kenshi Yonezu’s fifth album, STRAY SHEEP, released in August 2020.

In this song, falsetto appears for just a brief instant in the chorus phrase, yet that fleeting moment is highly effective in leaving a strong impression as a vocal expression.

The contrast with the powerful high tones used in the so-called D section is also wonderfully effective.

Because this flash of falsetto depends on smooth register shifts, it’s a technique you can only pull off if you’re truly skilled—nothing to say but “as expected!” I encourage everyone to practice it.

The key to singing it lies in how quickly you can release tension.

You really can’t help but admire the vocals of hyde from L’Arc~en~Ciel, who has led Japan’s rock band scene! He delivers everything beautifully, from rich, deep lows to clear, soaring highs.

In this song in particular, use a deep, resonant tone up to the chorus, and then switch to falsetto to take on the high notes in the chorus! It’s quite high, so there may not be many men who can hit those notes, but it’ll feel amazing if you can sing it!

CHEERSMrs. GREEN APPLE

A cheer song that turns nerves into energy! It features a bouncy rhythm right from the start and Omori’s signature soaring high notes.

Singing Mrs.

at karaoke will definitely wow everyone around you! Since it’s a bright, upbeat tune, nailing it at karaoke will put you in full-on positive mode.

The overall vocal range is a whopping D3–G5—seriously wide.

With a fast tempo and flowing melody lines, it’s highly recommended for those comfortable switching between chest voice and falsetto.

If you overthink where to flip into falsetto, you might trip up your vocal production, so just lock into the rhythm, go with the flow, and have fun singing!

Released in January 2016 as the lead track from Suchmos’s second EP, LOVE&VICE.

It was featured in a commercial for Honda’s VEZEL.

While the song is crafted like an uptempo, black-music-inspired disco track, you can also occasionally sense rock elements in the vocal development and guitar phrases—an intriguing piece with a sophisticated production and a mysterious mood.

What gives the track its “mysterious floating feel” is YONCE’s vocals, which make effective use of falsetto.

This airy singing style is truly lovely.

If you sing it at karaoke, the key point will be how well you can switch between registers.

It may take some practice, but the sense of accomplishment when you master it is considerable—so definitely give it a try!

GLAMOROUS SKYNakajima Mika

The 16th single released under the name “NANA starring MIKA NAKASHIMA.” Despite its quite powerful, hard rock sound, it has a somewhat mysterious atmosphere, with Mika Nakashima’s soft, floating vocals—likely delivered intentionally without a forceful singing style—gliding over the top.

The falsetto used in the chorus enhances this effect even more.

If you plan to sing it at karaoke, the falsetto usage isn’t particularly difficult, so as long as you pay attention to your vocal register switching points, it should be relatively accessible for most people.

Give it a try!

GravityOmoinotake

Released on October 29, 2025, it’s the theme song for the film “(LOVE SONG).” Omoinotake, who had a huge hit with “Ikioku Kounen,” may be known for consistently high vocal ranges.

In “Gravity,” the chorus climbs up to around C#5, making falsetto essential.

Some people might think falsetto is easy, but when you need this level of airy resonance, you definitely have to use a lot of breath with diaphragmatic breathing.

Since “Gravity” has a relaxed tempo, you should be able to take solid breaths.

Try singing while staying loose and resonating in your head voice!

It seems this was the set piece for the 2011 (78th) NHK All-Japan School Music Competition, Junior High Division! The vocal range is quite wide, from A2 to C5.

The falsetto parts appear in the chorus.

The melody line is easy to follow, building nicely through a verse (A), pre-chorus (B), chorus, and final chorus.

First, the A section sits quite low, so be careful not to overuse your throat there.

If you watch choirs or singers’ facial expressions, you’ll notice their eyebrows and facial muscles are lifted quite a bit.

Simply lifting your facial muscles like this helps open the throat and makes singing a bit easier.

It also helps you transition smoothly from chest voice to falsetto.

In addition, make sure to fully support and release your breath on the high falsetto notes.

Aiming your voice straight up toward the top of your head makes falsetto easier to produce.

With just a small shift in awareness, the song becomes much easier to sing—give it a try!
