AdrenaNEW!YOASOBI

A light and poppy song quintessentially YOASOBI, released digitally on January 4, 2026.
It was written as the opening theme for the TV anime “Hana Zakari no Kimitachi e.” While it sounds cute, the melody has a brisk tempo with fine pitch movements up and down.
If you power through in chest voice alone, your throat can get strained, so it’s better to incorporate some head voice as you sing.
When you try singing it, you’ll probably find the tempo is faster than you expected.
The key is not to let your body ride the beat too much.
Core support is important, so engage your lower abdomen and try to sing straight without letting your voice waver.
Start by memorizing the melody—lightly humming it as you learn works well!
I can’t be rightNEW!zutto mayonaka de ii no ni.

This is a song written by vocalist ACA-ne as the theme for the live-action film The Promised Neverland, released on December 18, 2020.
The overall vocal range is A3–F5, and it opens with the chorus melody, jumping straight to a D5.
If you can’t hit that first note, the following range will be tough as well, so make sure to prepare thoroughly before singing and aim for it with focus.
It’s definitely not an easy range overall, but the pre-chorus might be the only section you can sing without straining.
Also, with a song that has such a wide range, relying on your throat will make every register harder, so be careful.
To prevent your pitch from dropping, keep your eyebrows and facial muscles lifted and open your throat.
The trick is to commit and project your voice confidently without hesitation.
Into The LightNEW!MISIA

People who excel at soaring high notes often choose to sing MISIA’s songs! Among them, I picked “INTO THE LIGHT” this time.
It was released the same year as her debut single “Tsutsumi Komu Yō ni…” and is extremely popular among fans.
The powerful vocals and those strikingly high tones that make you think “How high can she go?” are signature features.
The overall range spans from F#3 to F#5, reaching notes you don’t often use—truly impressive.
Because it’s so high throughout, you really need to focus on breath volume, explosiveness, and core engagement; delivering it like a piercing, chest-voice-like sound is quite challenging.
But the exhilaration after finishing is incredible, so sing it boldly and wow everyone around you!
promiseNEW!Hirose Kōmi

She’s often called the “Queen of Winter,” and “promise” is also loved as part of that tradition during the winter season.
It features a passionate, dramatic melody and a structure that shows off vocal ability, with a chorus that leaps into the high register from the A and B sections.
I sing it often myself, but the tricky part is definitely the chorus.
It combines a brisk tempo, fast passages, and extremely high notes—all three at once.
Also, it’s easy to speed up in the chorus once you get into it, so aim to sing with enough composure.
When transitioning from the A/B sections to the chorus, try lifting your eyebrows and engaging your facial muscles so the shift in melody feels smoother.
danceNEW!Ado

It was selected as the theme song for NHK’s music program “Yakou Ongaku VocaloP 5min.” I hear the show features a different Vocaloid producer each time and introduces how Vocaloid music is made.
Among those songs, many people probably think, “I want to sing that!” when it’s a track sung not by a synthesized voice but by Ado.
I like ‘Odo’ too and used to sing it a lot, but when I thought, “Let’s sing it again after a while!” and tried it at karaoke the other day, the melody had completely slipped my mind and I couldn’t sing it at all…
It really drove home how, if you don’t listen regularly, you forget such a complex melody.
I get the impression it has dramatic pitch jumps and lots of melodic figures.
Still, the belted parts in the chorus are truly cool, and it feels great to sing—highly recommended!
My cutest partNEW!FRUITS ZIPPER

It went viral on TikTok with over 900 million views, instantly boosting its recognition as FRUITS ZIPPER’s signature song.
Since it’s an idol track, the melody is divided among members, so the range is wide and the melody becomes complex if you sing it solo.
The overall vocal range is F#3–D5.
In the latter half of the chorus where high notes come in succession, if you tense up you’ll end up using your throat and won’t be able to sustain your voice, so aim to sing lightly with the sensation of resonating in your head.
The “i” vowel is easier for producing head voice, so those high notes should be easier compared to other vowels.
For other vowels, be careful not to tense up—lift your facial muscles and sing with a bright expression!
Fiancé-kkyunNEW!ano

It’s the opening theme of Ranma 1/2, with a poppy, catchy, very anime-like vibe.
The song title is read as “Ii na Zukkyun.” It’s notably upbeat, and the words come fast right from the start, so it can be tough unless you’ve memorized the lyrics.
The overall vocal range is F#3–D5, with a higher chorus.
If you imitate ano’s singing style, it can turn nasal; for those not used to it, hitting the high notes or staying on pitch may feel difficult.
First, focus on properly engaging your vocal cords.
Place your hand in the hollow between your collarbones and sing as if the sound is vibrating out from there.
At the same time, aim to resonate in your head; that will make the high notes easier and help you sing more comfortably.
