Even when we say “high-tone voice” or “the allure of high notes,” there are many types of singers: some have a naturally high-sounding speaking voice but don’t actually have a very wide upper range, while others don’t sound particularly high, yet when they sing, you realize they’re actually hitting incredibly high notes.

Masterpieces by male artists famed for their high notes. Recommended popular songs (71–80)
at that timeyuzu
A digital-only single by Yuzu, released in May 2020.
Even within the broad category of high-tone voices, there are many types of singers; Yuzu’s Iwasawa’s high notes aren’t the piercing, metallic kind you might hear from metal vocalists.
Instead, his singing retains a distinct softness even in the upper register.
My impression is that he probably uses mixed voice for most of his range.
The transitions between chest voice, mix, and falsetto are extremely smooth, making the breaks nearly imperceptible—one of the secrets behind the appeal of Iwasawa’s vocals.
This style also fits perfectly with Yuzu’s folk-tinged sound.
He’s a vocalist male singers aiming to improve should definitely study.
apoptosisOfisharu Higedan Dism
This song by Official Hige Dandism was released in advance on August 11, 2021 via various music streaming services as the lead track from the album “Editorial,” which came out on August 18, 2021.
It was also used in an Apple Music commercial.
Satoshi Fujihara’s vocals, with their somewhat boyish quality, are especially appealing, and this track is crafted so you can fully enjoy his voice right from the beginning.
It’s also an ideal song for those practicing singing and vocalization to use as a training piece for mixed voice and falsetto.
GOOD DAYMrs. GREEN APPLE
Released in September 2025, this work is a celebrated song by Mrs.
GREEN APPLE woven with a lively melody around the theme of enjoying life.
Their songs often span a wide vocal range, and this one is no exception, covering a very broad range from mid1 B to hi D.
The standout feature is the final chorus, where hi B appears three times, all sung in mixed voice.
Although it’s quite high, if you have an above-average vocal range, it should be just barely singable.
Try focusing your practice on training to produce a light, small mixed voice at first, then gradually increase your volume.

StardomKing Gnu
When it comes to artists known for their high notes, many people probably think of Satoshi Iguchi, famed for his ultra high-tone voice.
He is the vocalist of the rock band King Gnu, who created the song “Stardom” as the theme for NHK’s soccer coverage.
It’s an anthem for those pursuing their dreams, and the track showcases an even more powerful vocal performance than usual.
It’s a must-listen not only for fans of high vocals but also for anyone striving toward something.
YAH YAH YAHCHAGE and ASKA
This is one of CHAGE and ASKA’s signature songs.
It’s a quintessential track of the ’90s, and I was amazed that there are artists who can sing with such power.
While ASKA’s powerful high notes draw a lot of attention, I’m equally impressed by CHAGE’s even higher, gentle high notes.
The lyrics feel like they’re cheering you on, and they really lift your spirits.
It’s a song I want to listen to when I’m feeling down.
runner’s highNovelbright
This is the second digital-only single by the Japanese rock band Novelbright, released in January 2020.
It’s a lively, up-tempo rock song with a fresh, youthful sound and vocals you can really enjoy.
Vocalist Yudai Takenaka delivers a powerful performance with exceptional range that’s very pleasant to listen to.
His use of falsetto, chest voice, and mixed voice is skillfully crafted, and from a vocal production standpoint, the track showcases a high level of sophistication.
Weekend GloomySaucy Dog
Saucy Dog captivates with their warm, high-toned vocals.
Weekend Gloomy, a song about feelings for family far away, is a moving track that’s impossible to listen to without tears.
Once you leave your parents’ home, there are times when the loneliness of being on your own really hits.
The voices of your family—so noisy when you lived together—become something you find yourself missing.
But when you start to feel that way, it’s the memories you shared with them that give you a gentle push forward.
The message woven into the song, carried by the vocalist’s clear, expansive voice, makes you feel ready to try your best again starting tomorrow—such a song.
