Sakuranbo is also a staple song that girls sing at karaoke.

Singer-songwriter Ai Otsuka debuted in 2003 with Momo no Hanabira.

Her second single released the same year, Sakuranbo, feels great in the chorus where you switch to falsetto for the high notes.

Many people probably find it easier to sing because parts you can’t hit in chest voice become reachable with falsetto.

And since the whole song is up-tempo, the falsetto sections sound even cuter—that’s another charm of this track.

YOASOBI, the music duo whose 2019 release Yoru ni Kakeru became a massive hit.

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

Even though the overall key is high, her voice doesn’t sound piercing, making it an easy and pleasant listen—another great reason to recommend it!

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.
