Maximum reachSEKAI NO OWARI
This is SEKAI NO OWARI’s sixth digital-only single, released in September 2023.
It was reportedly written as the opening theme for Fuji TV’s One Piece.
Fukase, the vocalist of SEKAI NO OWARI, is a singer whose light, slightly boyish voice is especially appealing, and that vocal charm is used to the fullest in this lively track, making it a song that leaves you feeling wonderfully refreshed just by listening.
Enjoy his crystal-clear vocals!
Sonnet of the Clownsadamasashi
Released as a single by singer-songwriter Masashi Sada in February 1980.
It was the theme song for the film “Fly, Icarus’ Wings” and is one of Sada’s signature songs.
Sada is a singer known for his uniquely gentle high tone; rather than a trained high range, he likely falls into the category of people whose natural speaking voice is high.
Trying to sing with this kind of soft high tone can be very helpful for those aiming to become high-tone singers.
SINGLESMr.Children
Released in October 2018, a song by Mr.Children.
Sakurai’s vocals in this Mr.Children track are very distinctive and captivating.
Among high-tone trademark singers, many deliver a clear, almost feminine-sounding voice, but what’s wonderful about Sakurai’s singing is that in the lower register you can clearly feel a masculine quality.
For the high notes, he doesn’t rely heavily on falsetto or mixed voice; in a sense it’s more of a power-based approach, but the way he projects solidly in chest voice is remarkable.
In this track, “SINGLES,” you can enjoy the contrast between the A and B sections centered on the mid-to-low range and the chorus, which shifts to a high-tone focus.
HagurumaKANA-BOON
This is KANA-BOON’s 12th major-label single, released in March 2019.
It also served as the opening theme for the second cour of the TV anime Karakuri Circus.
It’s a song where you can enjoy a very resonant high tone that never thins out even at higher pitches.
The vocals likely make skillful use of a “chest-leaning mixed voice” with solid nasal resonance, and it would be an excellent piece to use as practice material for mastering this kind of vocal production.
A poem of love to you whom I have yet to meetTHE ALFEE
This is THE ALFEE’s 39th single, released in May 1994.
It was later included on the 1995 album “Mugen no Hate ni” (At the End of Illusion).
Although all three members of THE ALFEE can take the lead vocal, the lead on this track is Takamizawa, the highest tenor among them.
It’s a song where you can enjoy Takamizawa’s signature qualities: a very gentle, straightforward delivery and soaring high notes that seem to pierce the heavens.
As a karaoke choice, it suits people whose natural speaking voice is already on the higher side.
Samurai Heart (Some Like It Hot!!)SPYAIR
A standout song by SPYAIR, a rock band popular especially among younger generations for their distinctive high vocals that captivate many listeners and their message-driven tracks.
It’s a number that carries the message: live true to yourself without worrying about what others think.

white noiseOfisharu Higedan Dism
This is Official HIGE DANDism’s ninth digital-only single, released in January 2023.
It was written as the opening theme for the TV anime Tokyo Revengers: Christmas Showdown Arc.
Over a very pleasant medium- to up-tempo track, you can fully enjoy vocalist Satoshi Fujihara’s high-tone voice.
In particular, the soaring high notes in the section sung mainly in the upper register after the second chorus are remarkably exhilarating.
In the very last part of the song, where he sings softly in clear falsetto, you can also sense Fujihara’s excellent vocal sensibility.
