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.

A track from King Gnu’s third full album, CEREMONY, released in January 2020.
It was created as a song for Sony’s earphones and high-resolution Walkman commercials, and was released digitally ahead of the album in December 2019.
It’s a song where you can enjoy high tones delivered with a chest-voice-leaning mixed voice.

The song “Sashi-Iro,” featured in the Namacha commercial, is a classic by the band Bialystocks, who had been drawing attention since their indie days, and it saw a revival hit thanks to the ad.
The real charm of the track lies in the chorus.
The falsetto that unfolds from the gentle vocals is incredibly soothing and brings an indescribable sense of bliss.
Beyond the pleasing high notes, the subtle touches of Black music influence are another key appeal of this song.

giftRADWIMPS
RADWIMPS’ new song “Tamamono.” This track quickly gained recognition after being chosen as the theme song for NHK’s morning drama series “Anpan.” It’s a piece that mixes rock and J-pop in classic RADWIMPS fashion, but the chorus is a bit unusual.
In the chorus, there’s a phrase that repeatedly alternates between falsetto and chest voice.
While it doesn’t reach extremely high notes, it’s a perfect song for enjoying the charm of high-register vocals.
Que sera, seraMrs. GREEN APPLE
A digital-only single released in April 2023 as Mrs.
GREEN APPLE’s seventh such release.
It was newly written as the theme song for the drama “Sunday Night Probably…” and was also used in a Spotify brand commercial.
Set to a brisk tempo, the track showcases vocalist Motoki Omori’s versatile high-range singing—from chest voice to mix voice to falsetto—making it a piece you can truly enjoy.
Omori’s smooth switching of vocal production across parts and phrases is nothing short of praiseworthy.
In particular, the high notes after the interlude when the key rises are absolutely overwhelming, making this a song I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone who loves powerful male high vocals!
over the topMiyamoto Hiroji
Hiroji Miyamoto, the vocalist of Elephant Kashimashi, has been active for many years.
Lately he’s also been thriving as a solo artist, winning support from younger generations thanks to his highly original musicality and vocals.
His new song “over the top” is perfect for savoring soaring high notes.
While it doesn’t feature much of the trendy falsetto, it repeatedly showcases a powerful mixed voice instead.
If you’re a man who has ever admired strong, high-pitched vocals, this is a track you’ll want to check out.
Rolling DaysWANIMA
WANIMA’s new song “Rolling Days.” WANIMA is known for bright tracks infused with punk elements, but this one stands out for its somewhat more emotional finish.
In particular, the most captivating high-register moments are the early falsetto and the high notes in the final chorus delivered with a shout.
There aren’t many domestic artists who sing high notes while incorporating shouts.
From that perspective too, this track could be considered a rare one.
Be sure to check it out.
Basking in love, I am here.C&K
When it comes to high-pitched voices, I think of these two.
In this gospel-tinged song, their vocals are so clear that you can truly feel how amazing they are.
Their voices soar even higher than many female gospel singers, and when the gospel elements are added to the world the two of them create on their own, the result is a track that feels almost divine.
