Masterpieces by male artists known for their captivating high notes. Recommended popular songs.
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.
High tones in male voices in particular often carry a curious sensuality and tend to sound especially appealing to listeners.
This time, we’ve gathered classic songs by male singers whose high notes are especially captivating.
High-tone vocals may now feel like a prerequisite for professional singers, but the ways of expressing them vary greatly from singer to singer.

Masterpieces by male artists known for their captivating high notes. Recommended popular songs (151–160)
Don’t Stop Loveofukōsu
Kazumasa Oda is one of Japan’s most iconic singers, renowned for his unmistakable high tenor voice.
One of the hit songs by Off Course, the rock band for which he served as vocalist, is “Ai wo Tomenaide” (“Don’t Stop Love”).
The sweet melody and lyrics—both written by Oda—have a unique, unparalleled charm.
And needless to say, from the intro to the outro, he showcases extraordinarily high-range singing.
I hope you’ll give it a try at least once and experience just how incredible it is.
All the Love Songs I’ve GotNaoto Intiraymi
A signature song by Naoto Inti Raymi, an artist loved by people of all genders for his warm, encouraging melodies and soaring high-tone vocals.
It’s a hugely popular love song that expresses straightforward feelings of love for someone special.
flower fortune-tellingVaundy
Singer-songwriter Vaundy is known for his wide musical range.
While he’s praised for both his low and high registers, “Hanauroi” particularly showcases his upper range.
It’s a J-pop track with slightly bluesy phrases, featuring an extremely high line near the end of the chorus.
The range is quite broad, from mid1 F to hi D.
The highest chest voice note, hi A#, which requires mixed voice, appears 10 times, and the highest falsetto note, hi D, occurs frequently toward the end.
It’s a challenging piece, but for those who enjoy singing with mixed voice, it’s very satisfying—so definitely give it a try.
Choral AOfisharu Higedan Dism
This song was written as the theme for the film ‘Offbeat Cops,’ starring Hiroshi Abe.
The movie is set around a police band.
Because Masaki Narazaki, a member of the group, once played saxophone in the Shimane Prefectural Police Band, Official HIGE DANDism was tapped to perform the theme.
Being here now, the encounters you have there—everything has meaning.
The lyrics, which link to the film’s worldview, the lively brass band sound, and Satoshi Fujihara’s light, high vocals come together perfectly in this track.
powder snowToshi
A track from Toshi of X Japan’s cover album “I’m a Singer Vol.2,” released in December 2019.
The original is Remioromen’s eighth single, released in November 2005.
While the original already lets you enjoy a high male vocal, this version is sung by Toshi, whose high notes are highly acclaimed even within X Japan, making his soaring vocals even more captivating than the original.
His piercing high tones bring a new charm not found in the original.
The high notes he hits when singing the title in the chorus are absolutely stunning!
Us, againSG
“Bokura Mata,” a song that has become the new standard for graduation tunes and is overwhelmingly popular among younger generations.
It’s a gentle track that wraps softly around the many forms of farewells that inevitably come in life.
The bright, unforced vocals are the kind that make you feel you can look ahead with a positive heart.
The singer is SG, who performs as the vocalist of the multinational band All Your Days.
He is half Korean and half Japanese and has lived in Japan since he was 15.
On YouTube, he posts singing videos under the theme “A Korean tries singing in Japanese.”

Answer keyŌmori Motoki
This is a solo song by Motoki Omori, the vocalist of Mrs.
GREEN APPLE, and as expected, it features a lot of high notes.
The range is G#3 to B4, so it might be easier for women to sing.
One amazing thing about Omori is that he switches between chest voice and falsetto much more frequently than other artists, but for this song, keeping your eyebrows raised while singing helps make the transitions smoother.
My students often say, “Omori’s eyebrows are always up!” so please use that as a reference.
Also, since the phrases in this song are relatively long, I recommend deciding your breath points before you sing.
If you don’t have enough breath, your voice may drop out in the falsetto sections, so be sure to focus on diaphragmatic breathing.
It’s challenging, but it’s a cute song, so once you get used to it, try singing it in a cheerful, bouncy mood!
