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.

Summer PrincessHirai Dai
Singer-songwriter Dai Hirai, who has gained popularity for his music that blends Hawaiian music and R&B into pop, consistently releases new songs—and he recently dropped another gem.
It’s “Summer Princess,” a gentle pop ballad that still features some solid high notes.
His soaring, emotive falsetto is incredibly captivating, so if you’re looking to hear moving high-note passages, be sure to check it out.
hellKizu
If I were to recommend an artist who’s genuinely outstanding at high notes, there’s no way I could leave out Kizu with their song “Jigoku.” Kizu is a visual-kei rock band centered on hard rock, known for being among the top performers in the scene.
In particular, this track showcases an awe-inspiring mixed voice born from vocalist Lime’s exceptional singing ability—high yet powerful.
Artists who embody this combination are rare, so be sure to check them out.
You are more beautiful than a rose.Fuse Akira
A well-known song that serves as a signature piece for Akira Fuse, a powerhouse vocalist whose singing ability and projection are universally recognized.
Speaking of Fuse, his voice resonates throughout the venue even with the mic held far away, and his endless long tones are legendary! Numerous clips of his singing performances are available online, and he can be considered one of Japan’s most widely known singers across generations.
This masterpiece pairs sultry lyrics with a sensuous voice.
Beyond the excellence of the composition, what truly draws attention is Fuse’s vocal prowess.
Why not try the superhuman feat of seeing how long you can sustain the final note?
no heart rate[Alexandros]
![no heart rate[Alexandros]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/JSXYWi0HHBI/sddefault.jpg)
A song by [Alexandros], included on their eighth full-length album “But wait.
Cats?” released on July 13, 2022.
It serves as the opening theme for the NHK Educational TV anime “Ao Ashi.” As for Yohei Kawakami, the vocalist of [Alexandros], while he may not possess an ultra-human high register, I think he’s a singer who delivers wonderfully appealing higher overtones across his entire vocal range.
Even in the high parts of this track, he never resorts to a strained, tightened-throat approach; instead, he skillfully incorporates falsetto in his expressive singing, which makes him a particularly compelling vocalist.
It’s a must-listen for anyone who enjoys high-register male vocals.
Supreme loveTHE ALFEE
A track included on THE ALFEE’s album “THE BEST SONGS,” released in December 1985.
Featuring Toshihiko Takamizawa—arguably the original high-tenor voice of J-POP/J-ROCK—on lead vocals, it’s arranged as a dramatic power ballad.
As mentioned, this is an album track that has never been released as a single, but I wanted to introduce it to all fans of high-tenor vocals.
Being an ’80s piece, the vocal track is appealing in its own way for being very organic, without the heavy pitch correction common in modern songs.
Please enjoy Takamizawa’s soaring high notes and a song that evokes a clear, wintry night sky!
