A masterpiece with exhilarating high notes. An enchanting high-tone voice.

Even when we simply say “high-tone voice,” there are many ways to express it—from piercing high notes sung in chest voice, to a softer, more mature high tone that effectively uses mixed voice or falsetto.

In this topic, we’ve gathered a wide variety of songs that showcase the appeal of different high-tone voices, ranging from the latest trending tracks to timeless classics.

High-tone vocals are pleasant to listen to on their own, but once you can comfortably sing high notes yourself, you’ll discover even more ways to enjoy these songs.

We hope this can serve as practice material and a point of reference for those who want to learn how to sing in higher registers.

Among L’Arc~en~Ciel’s many songs, “Driver’s High” is one of the most popular.

It also served as the theme song for the anime GTO, which helped it gain worldwide acclaim.

The song’s vocal range is quite wide, from mid1 E to high B.

While high B is often sung in falsetto, in this song it’s delivered with a mixed voice, and it appears frequently—six times in total.

It’s a perfect piece for practicing mixed voice, which requires strong projection, so definitely give it a try.

Among J-POP bands, Official HIGE DANDism stands out for songs that somehow evoke elements of Black music.

The vocalist, Satoshi Fujihara, is known for having a very high voice.

Their track “Parabola” showcases Fujihara’s soaring high tones; while its overall range isn’t extremely wide at mid1 F to hi D, it frequently hits hi A# and hi C, making it a perfect piece for building endurance in your mixed voice.

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.

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!

A track included on Mrs.

GREEN APPLE’s mini-album “Unity,” released in July 2022.

It was made available for digital streaming ahead of the album in May of the same year.

Motoki Omori, the vocalist of Mrs.

GREEN APPLE, is known for a voice rich in highly appealing upper overtones, and that signature sound shines in this song as well.

In addition to his naturally bright, high register, he deftly switches among various high-tone techniques to deliver a superb performance that brings the song to life.

It’s a track I can confidently recommend to anyone who loves high-tone male vocals.

I also think it’s very useful as a reference piece for aspiring singers.

Beautiful finsupittsu

This is Spitz’s 46th single, released in April 2023.

It was written as the theme song for the film Detective Conan: Black Iron Submarine.

With its bright, mid-tempo feel, just listening to it somehow puts you in a warm, relaxed mood.

Masamune Kusano, Spitz’s vocalist, is renowned for his clear, high-toned voice, and that appeal is on full display in this track.

It’s a song I highly recommend for men with higher ranges to try! Practice making smooth transitions into falsetto where it appears—especially around the chorus and other key parts.
