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.

Delusion:AllONE OK ROCK

ONE OK ROCK is a Japanese rock band now active on the global stage.

Their musicality keeps getting sharper, and at this point there’s no difference in overall vibe compared to Western rock bands.

Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is “Delusion:All.” Released in July 2024, it’s captivating for its sense of speed and high-tone vocals.

It’s not an overly heavy rock track, so you can comfortably enjoy the soaring high parts.

SUPER SESSIONTegoshi Yūya

A release from July 2023 by singer-actor Yuya Tegoshi.

It’s a fine track where you can fully enjoy Tegoshi’s powerful vocals—complete with his expansive high tones—over a driving rock backing track.

The key to singing this song is, above all, hitting the high parts without constricting your throat.

If you tighten your throat, you simply can’t produce such free, soaring high notes.

It’s a challenging song to sing, not just because “your chest voice is high,” but if you’re a male vocalist confident in your high range, definitely give it a try.

Even if you don’t sing yourself, I highly recommend this singer to anyone who enjoys male high-tenor vocals like B’z’s Inaba.

Please enjoy!

From the very beginning, “orbit” unfolds with a melancholic tone, and you might wonder, “Maybe this song doesn’t have any death growls?”—but sure enough, they come in solidly in the latter half.

The vocal range is A#3–G5, and as you’d expect from TK, the high notes are extremely lofty.

When singing, it’s fine to use mostly falsetto, but the key is to avoid letting it become a weak falsetto.

If you keep singing in a weak falsetto, you’ll run out of breath as you go, and you’ll barely be able to pull off the death growls that come after the stronger falsetto in the second half! It’s actually easier if you project both your falsetto and your death growls more strongly from the vocal cords than you think.

Also, one of TK’s charms lies in the spacing between words when delivering the lyrics.

If you sing each word carefully, the sense of poignancy deepens and your voice becomes even more beautiful.

Bye-Bye to youUVERworld

Speaking of UVERworld’s songs, they tend to stay in the high register throughout.

This track, too, keeps high notes from start to finish, and the pitch moves up and down quite a lot, so if you’re not used to singing high, there’s a concern you might end up straining your throat.

The high note that pops up at the end of the chorus jumps to a C5, so it might be good to start by practicing just that part to hit it explosively.

To produce a powerful voice like vocalist TAKUYA∞, you need solid core support! If your body wobbles while riding a train or bus, it means your lower abdomen (tanden) isn’t engaged.

That will make your singing waver too, so try singing with firm strength in your lower abdomen.

It’s a difficult song, so don’t rush—practice steadily!

It’s such a lively, cheerful song, and ikura’s voice is super cute! It’s fun to listen to, but with a range of G3 to F5, it’s really tough to sing.

While some parts have very clear, easy-to-follow rhythm, there are also Vocaloid-like melodic lines that are very YOASOBI.

Especially in the A verse and the chorus, since they sit high, you’ll want to make the attack on the opening words crisp and clear.

To keep your voice steady, try engaging your glutes as you sing.

The B verse has fast melodies, so I recommend memorizing the lyrics before singing.

It’s an adorable song, so don’t go expressionless—keep your facial muscles lifted the whole time! And sing with a smile to keep your pitch from dropping.

PornoGraffitti is famous for their high vocal range, and I think “THE DAY” is one of their highest songs, especially at the top end.

The tempo is quite fast too, so if you’re going to sing it, it’ll be tough to keep up unless you really memorize the song first.

Also, vocalist Okano mostly uses chest voice and belts the high notes in his natural voice, but the highest note at the end of the chorus, C#5, is in falsetto.

That switch is so cool, isn’t it? Since the song is up-tempo, if you’re not comfortable with high notes, I recommend lowering the key by one or two steps instead of starting in the original key.

Rather than focusing on pitch at first, start by getting used to the speed! You might get caught up in just getting the notes out, but don’t forget to breathe!

GRe4N BOYZ have begun to hint at a harder musical edge than before.

Formerly active under the name GReeeeN, the group has produced many classic songs.

Their new track, Speed, retains the essence of GReeeeN while featuring a sharper, tighter sound.

A hallmark of theirs is the high-pitched vocals, and this song not only includes that element but also showcases a cool, stylish vibe.

If you loved the high-register parts from their GReeeeN days, be sure to check this one out.
