The song “Stand By You,” where the strings provide a nice accent.

Although this piece is categorized as J-POP, it features a somewhat tricky rhythm and calls for a groove that takes the beat on the offbeats, similar to Black music.

That might sound difficult, but among Official HIGE DANDism’s songs, this one falls into the narrower vocal range category.

Aside from one spot in the chorus and the bridge (C section), there aren’t any sudden jumps in pitch, so if you can lock into a more Western-style rhythmic feel, you should be able to sing it without any problems.

Vintage, a masterpiece by Official HIGE DANDism, stands out for its delicate sound and structure.

Rather than typical J-pop, this piece features instrumentation closer to pop rock.

That said, the rhythm is easy to catch, so you won’t feel the genre makes it hard to sing.

The song has a somewhat wide vocal range and uses a fair amount of falsetto, but it doesn’t require the kind of difficult low falsetto notes.

If you can hold pitch solidly in falsetto, the range shouldn’t be much of an issue.

If you want to sing it even better, try slightly blending an R-like articulation when vowels “a” and “e” appear.

This will bring you closer to a crisp, Western-influenced vocal tone like that of Satoshi Fujihara or Dai Hirai.

A Philosophy of Happiness Led by the First TrainOfisharu Higedan Dism

It’s a bittersweet love song that uses the scene of the first train stealing away a lover to question farewell, regret, and the meaning of happiness.

The overall vocal range is F#3–D5, which is generally on the higher side, but since it’s a band sound, it should be easy to sing if you can ride the rhythm.

The melody is simple, so it shouldn’t be hard to learn the song! The high notes in the chorus require a horizontally drawn articulation—be careful not to strain too much.

Create space in your mouth and aim the voice slightly upward as if you’re humming—that works well! Breath control and quick attack are key.

The ending features a high-tone long note, so make sure to manage your breath properly!

Released on April 22, 2015, “Koi no Maenarai” is a representative early track.

It’s a refreshing pop-rock tune with both lightness and warmth, and its march-like rhythm makes it very easy to get into! In their early days, HIGE DAN didn’t stack tons of high notes, and the keys are set in a range that’s relatively singable for the average male vocalist.

If you like HIGE DAN but feel their songs are too high to sing, definitely start with their early work.

There are plenty of songs that feel distinctly HIGE DAN without requiring soaring high notes! That said, there are still some higher parts, so it might help to sing with your facial muscles lifted and imagine resonating in your head throughout.
