Rising HopeLiSA
Speaking of LiSA, it’s all about anisongs! She also has an image of singing mostly high-pitched songs, right? Among them, “Rising Hope” is probably one that many people feel is “so fast and so high… great to listen to, but tough to sing!” My students struggled with it, too.
Of course the high notes are challenging, but the tempo is also very fast at 190.
On top of that, there are lots of rap-like and intricate parts, so you want to make sure you don’t get left behind while singing.
Also, for the ends of phrases in the chorus, if you slightly lengthen them and articulate the vowels clearly, it adds to the vibe and sounds cool! There are lots of high notes in succession, but try to keep the sound resonating in your head so the pitch doesn’t drop.
GIRL CRUSHmiwa
This song is striking for its sparkling, positive lyrics.
It’s included on miwa’s seventh album, “7th.” Released in May 2024, it carries a message about valuing your individuality and staying true to yourself.
Set to an up-tempo, rhythmic sound, miwa’s energetic vocals really shine.
The song sings about the strength to face challenges and the importance of believing in yourself, making it perfect for when you need a boost.
It’s sure to get the crowd going at live shows.
Highly recommended when you want more confidence or a little push forward.
earring on the right earKoresawa
A track from Japanese singer Koresawa’s album “Jun’ai Closet,” released in March 2021.
Koresawa’s vocal style on this song isn’t about showcasing piercing high notes, but you can enjoy her naturally cute voice, rich in high overtones.
In the chorus and other sections, her effective use of falsetto creates gentle high notes, making the song feel very pleasant overall.
travelingUtada Hikaru
This was Hikaru Utada’s ninth single, released in November 2001.
I think Utada’s natural vocal quality is, if anything, on the lower, fuller side rather than a high tone, but it’s impressive how she makes the most of that commanding voice while skillfully spanning a wide range.
She’s also top-notch as a practitioner of mixed voice, which is extremely important for singing contemporary R&B.
I’d even say that the term “mixed voice” became widely recognized among the general public thanks to her breakthrough.
Come to think of it, around the time she took off, I noticed a surge in my vocal students saying they wanted to master mixed voice.
She may be the original figure who established the basic approach to singing in modern Japanese R&B.
Of course, it’s not as if she invented mixed voice herself.
with a gentle heartSuperfly
This is one of Superfly’s signature songs, known for its powerful high-tone vocals.
Centered on themes of kindness and love, it celebrates the importance of human connection.
Released in July 2009, it was included on the album “Box Emotions.” In 2023, it was chosen as the Japanese end theme for the film “Elemental,” bringing it renewed attention.
With heartfelt lyrics and Ochi’s stunning vocal performance, the song offers both inspiration and comfort to listeners.
It’s perfect when you’re feeling down or want to reflect on someone special.
Be sure to give this beautiful, heartwarming track a listen.
