EverythingMISIA
This is MISIA’s seventh single, released on October 25, 2000.
It became a huge hit as the theme song for the Fuji TV drama “Yamato Nadeshiko.” Among female-vocal tracks from the 2000s, it is said to have recorded the highest sales.
The arrangement makes abundant use of live strings, resulting in a very luxurious ballad, and within that opulent backing track, MISIA’s protean vocals can be enjoyed to the fullest.
Focusing solely on the theme of this article—high notes—her chest voice, mixed voice, and falsetto are exquisitely deployed according to the expressive demands of the melody, offering a colorful vocal performance that could justifiably be called a “showcase of high-tone singing.” It also serves perfectly as practice material for various high-tone techniques (though the difficulty is quite high), so for those aiming to become more advanced singers, I highly recommend practicing this song until you can master it.
AnswerIkuta Rira
Released on March 9, 2021, this is Lila Ikuta’s third digital-only single under the name Ikura, who is also active in the music duo YOASOBI.
The song is a tender, ballad-style piece, and Ikuta’s gentle vocals blend beautifully with its mellow atmosphere.
Even in the chorus, which features many high-tone melodies, her singing never turns timid nor overly edgy; instead, she delivers a highly appealing falsetto performance.
It’s a track that truly showcases Ikuta’s exceptional abilities as a vocalist.
FFlower
A track included on the five-member female dance & vocal group Flower’s third album “F,” released in March 2019.
Flower’s vocalist Reina Washio is a singer whose beautifully pure falsetto is especially striking.
Her natural voice already carries many captivating high overtones, and the falsetto further amplifies that allure.
She delivers this gentle ballad with a wonderfully soft and tender touch.
It’s a song I highly recommend to anyone who loves female falsetto voices, and it’s also an ideal piece for women to use when practicing falsetto.
Merry XmasBoA
It’s BoA’s 15th single, released on December 1, 2004.
By now it’s become one of the go-to Christmas songs, hasn’t it? The high notes BoA delivers in the chorus are nothing short of outstanding.
She navigates a melody with a very wide range, skillfully shifting her vocal technique as needed to create a wonderful expressive performance.
Pay close attention to the timbre of her high notes in the chorus and how her vocal production changes.
It’s no wonder this has become a staple Christmas ballad!
BlessingYOASOBI
Shukufuku, YOASOBI’s second single, was released digitally as the opening song for the TV anime Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch from Mercury.
YOASOBI is a project duo that began in 2019, consisting of composer Ayase and vocalist ikura.
Shukufuku is a highly driving track that showcases ikura’s captivating high-tone vocals while also conveying a dark, hard-edged feel.
YOASOBI has produced many tie-in songs for novels, films, and anime, and Shukufuku was also released as a strictly limited edition.
The music video, directed by Nobutaka Yoda, is designed to link with the film’s opening visuals.
