Zutto Mayonaka de Iinoni, a band with a catchy style that enjoys immense popularity among teenage girls, has released a new song titled “Binetsu-ma.” While the vocal range required is fairly broad, the real challenge lies elsewhere.

Most of the high notes in this track are sung using a whisper voice, a breathy vocal technique.

Producing it momentarily isn’t an issue, but singing in whisper voice throughout demands substantial diaphragm control, making this a song with a high overall level of difficulty.
