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.

#302Hirai Ken
When it comes to beautiful high tones, many people probably think of Ken Hirai.
With his one-and-only voice, he has created numerous masterpieces such as “Rakuen” and “even if.” “#302” is a single released on December 4, 2019, and it was used as the theme song for the TBS drama “4-Minute Marigold.” If you master a gentle falsetto like Hirai’s and sing this song beautifully, there’s no doubt listeners will be spellbound!
Hani HaniEndō Masaaki
Anison singer Masaaki Endoh—also well-known as a member of JAM Project.
In the anime song world, he’s renowned for his exceptional high notes.
His mixed voice is especially remarkable: while most singers’ mixed voice tends to sound thin, Endoh’s retains impressive thickness.
The song “Honey Honey” lets you savor his soaring highs, and the parts outside the high register are delivered with overwhelming vocal skill as well.
Be sure to give it a listen.
IllusionMY FIRST STORY × HYDE
A collaboration between these two artists is incredibly extravagant, isn’t it? Actually, I sang this live with a male student, and from a woman’s perspective the key is on the lower side, so it was a bit tough…
But it was really fun to harmonize on top and trade lines back and forth! There’s also a death growl at the very end, so it’s definitely a song I’d love to hear sung by two men! Basically, it’s a song where the two of you alternate between lead and harmony, but there are various ways to harmonize—Hiro often takes the higher harmony and HYDE the lower.
There are parts sung an octave lower as well, so I think it’s best to switch things up and enjoy the different approaches!
AkariGReeeeN
This is GreeeeN’s 35th single, released on September 8, 2021.
It was also selected as the theme song for TBS’s Sunday drama “TOKYO MER: Mobile Emergency Room.” The piercing high tones you can hear in the middle section—the so-called D-melody—are incredibly refreshing.
The contrast between the melodically sung high-tone parts and the sections delivered with a slightly rap-like touch is exquisite, lending the song a dramatic flair.
Do whatever the hell you want.sawada kenji
This is “Katte ni Shiyagare,” a signature song by Kenji Sawada, the superstar who captivated the Japanese public.
Its stylish, passionate sound is perfectly matched by Julie—Kenji Sawada’s—sensual vocal delivery, making it a track that sets your heart ablaze.
The lyrics by the eminent songwriter Yū Aku are outstanding, with such vivid depictions that they make you feel as if you’re watching a film.
