chameleonKing Gnu
This is King Gnu’s fifth single, released on March 16, 2022.
It was also chosen as the theme song for Fuji TV’s Monday 9 p.m.
drama “Mystery to Iunakare,” and was released digitally in advance on February 28.
From the very beginning, a beautifully gentle falsetto voice bursts forth, making it a truly outstanding ballad.
To resonate falsetto this cleanly, I think mastering head voice with solid use of nasal resonance is essential.
Even outside the chorus—the so-called verse sections—falsetto is used abundantly, making it quite a challenging song to sing at karaoke.
But by all means, master it and captivate your friends around you!
CampanellaYonezu Kenshi
A song that opens Kenshi Yonezu’s fifth album, STRAY SHEEP, released in August 2020.
In this track, falsetto appears for just a brief moment in the chorus phrase, yet that fleeting falsetto 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 remarkably effective.
Because that instant switch to falsetto is an expression you can’t pull off without skillful voice switching, all I can say is: impressive! I encourage everyone to practice it—being able to relax your voice quickly will be the key point when singing this part.
Flavor Of LifeUtada Hikaru
Utada Hikaru’s 18th single, released in February 2007.
Since her debut, Utada has been renowned for a vocal ability that feels beyond the norm for Japanese artists, but it’s no exaggeration to say that the singing you hear on this track has reached a truly mature level.
Centered around a delivery that makes full use of middle voice and mix voice—techniques that have become almost essential for R&B ballads—the occasional airy, gently released falsetto passages are nothing short of art.
In contrast, the A section features a melody that capitalizes on the lower register, and this works precisely because those tender high notes, maximizing the beauty of her falsetto, are there to balance it.
A single that deserves nothing less than a resounding “Bravo!”
cherry blossomMoriyama Naotaro
Sakura, released on March 5, 2003.
With this single, Naotaro Moriyama broke through to mainstream success.
This song, which sings of parting from friends during cherry blossom season and the hope of meeting again, has become a staple for graduation ceremonies and among sakura-themed songs.
The piano-only accompaniment and the beautiful falsetto lend a sense of wistfulness and warmth to the entire piece.
It’s a must-sing for anyone confident in their falsetto!

A prayer resounding across the skyAqua Timez
The band Aqua Timez, revived for a limited time until the end of 2025.
This track, “Sora Ippai ni Kanaderu Inori,” is a new song that reconstructs the classic of the same name released in 2005, and it’s composed of highly dramatic and moving lyrics and melodies.
It’s not an extremely high-pitched piece overall, but the chorus features phrases that sit around the middle between mixed voice and chest voice.
Because these phrases must be sung on the vowel sound “i,” it can be considered slightly more difficult than a typical mixed voice line.
GOOD DAYMrs. GREEN APPLE
Released in September 2025, this work is a celebrated song by Mrs.
GREEN APPLE woven with a lively melody around the theme of enjoying life.
Their songs often span a wide vocal range, and this one is no exception, covering a very broad range from mid1 B to hi D.
The standout feature is the final chorus, where hi B appears three times, all sung in mixed voice.
Although it’s quite high, if you have an above-average vocal range, it should be just barely singable.
Try focusing your practice on training to produce a light, small mixed voice at first, then gradually increase your volume.
parabolaOfisharu Higedan Dism
Among J-POP bands, Official HIGE DANDism stands out for songs that somehow evoke elements of Black music.
The vocalist, Satoshi Fujihara, is known for having a very high voice.
Their track “Parabola” showcases Fujihara’s soaring high tones; while its overall range isn’t extremely wide at mid1 F to hi D, it frequently hits hi A# and hi C, making it a perfect piece for building endurance in your mixed voice.
