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.

SeventeenYOASOBI
Seventeen has also drawn attention as a collaboration between YOASOBI and Miyuki Miyabe.
It’s based on The Mismatched Cards, a suspense novel featuring a 17-year-old girl as the protagonist.
The song channels that dense story through a driving, fast-paced sound.
A key change is used in the scene where the protagonist gets caught up in the incident, perhaps symbolizing her stepping into a chaotic world.
There’s also another key change just before the final chorus.
Sonnet of the Clownsadamasashi
Released as a single by singer-songwriter Masashi Sada in February 1980.
It was the theme song for the film “Fly, Icarus’ Wings” and is one of Sada’s signature songs.
Sada is a singer known for his uniquely gentle high tone; rather than a trained high range, he likely falls into the category of people whose natural speaking voice is high.
Trying to sing with this kind of soft high tone can be very helpful for those aiming to become high-tone singers.
Red spider lilymafumafu
Mafumafu’s music, captivating with its delicate vocals and emotional lyrics, features a piece themed around red spider lilies.
Beginning in a utopian paradise known as Shangri-La, it portrays the protagonist’s inner turmoil as they plunge into a forbidden love.
Released in October 2019, the song has enjoyed strong popularity among fans.
Paired with a fantastical music video infused with traditional Japanese elements, it further enhances the song’s unique world.
It’s sure to resonate when you’re facing crossroads in love or life.
Give it a listen.
mixing public and private mattersyuzu
This was a digital-only single by Yuzu, released in August 2020.
Both members of Yuzu are singers whose appealing high-register voices really stand out.
In this song, too, you can enjoy their pleasant high tones riding over a brisk, lively groove right from the start.
Also, the vocal parts intentionally make active use of the pitch-correction effect—popularized by acts like Perfume—to create that so-called “Cher effect” style of sound, which might be another fun aspect of the track.
bergamotgirudo
A digital single by the visual kei band Guild, released in January 2019.
Vocalist RYUICHI’s soft yet powerful voice is one of his greatest charms, and it shines through on Bergamot as well.
For RYUICHI, who once left the band, this track marks his first single after rejoining Guild.
Perhaps thanks to the positive influence of his solo work during his hiatus, his expressive singing seems even more powerful than before.
I’ve shared the stage with RYUICHI several times in a piano-and-vocal setup and recorded piano-acoustic tracks with him, and he always absorbs direction quickly.
Every time we work together, I find myself amazed by his singing and his talent.
