Their vocalist ikura, who effortlessly sings the challenging songs composed by Ayase, is especially renowned for her beautiful high notes.

Adventure by YOASOBI is a bright, pop-tinged track that lets you fully savor ikura’s upper register.

Kana Nishino, affectionately known as “Kanayan,” is a singer-songwriter.

Her 2015 release Torisetsu is a cute love song from a woman’s perspective whose lyrics resonated with many women.

The charm of this track lies in how she sings the high notes in the chorus with a soft falsetto.

This gives it a girlish, cute impression that matches the lyrical content and conveys the intended image to listeners.

It’s also great how she deliberately avoids belting and instead sings almost in a whisper, showcasing her expressive skill.

If you call it loveUru

Uru’s singing voice is often described as very delicate with a breathy whisper tone.

This technique is difficult for those who aren’t used to singing; if you try to imitate it suddenly, you may run out of breath, your voice may waver, or you could even feel light-headed.

That’s why the basics, especially diaphragmatic breathing, are essential! Also, instead of singing the A and B sections loudly, try delivering them as if you’re speaking to someone—you’ll capture more of Uru’s vibe.

It’s really fun once you can sing softly without your voice getting raspy, and it will broaden the range of songs you can handle!

A track included on the original soundtrack of the hugely popular anime Attack on Titan, with the album released on June 28, 2013.

Naturally, it’s an insert song for the same anime.

The singer, Mika Kobayashi, is known for her powerful, resonant voice, and in this song she delivers a very strong, soaring high tone right from the intro.

I’ve handled her vocal recording several times and even did direction for her, and she picks up songs quickly; she responded immediately to my demanding directions and requests.

She’s an exceptionally high-potential singer! I’d love to work with her again if the opportunity arises.

NEVER EVERHamasaki Ayumi

It conveys a powerful will to keep moving forward, singing of a search that began even before Ayumi Hamasaki was born—sometimes hurting others, sometimes herself, yet pressing on.

It’s a song you should listen to when you feel lost and come to a standstill in life.

It will make you realize the importance of holding on to unchanging convictions.

One of Hamasaki’s remarkable strengths is her soaring high notes that feel both strong and pleasing to the ear.

Set to an elegant triple-meter rhythm and a grand melody, this track portrays humanity’s quest for eternal truth—a truly moving piece that stirs the heart.
