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.

People and people and people and peoplekuriipuhaipe
CreepHyp is a rock band that enjoys overwhelming support from young people.
Their catchy lyrics and melodies are irresistible, and every new release energizes the Japanese rock scene.
Among their songs, the one that especially feels great in the higher register is “Hito to Hito to Hito to Hito.” It’s not an insanely high-pitched song, but because the whole track is arranged in the upper range, you can savor the unique pleasure of high notes in every part.
Be sure to check it out.
frecklesJUDY AND MARY
Familiar as the opening theme of Rurouni Kenshin, JUDY AND MARY’s “Sobakasu” was reportedly written with an image of a Candy Candy–style anime in mind, without the members actually knowing the show’s content.
It’s a track that captivates with a rock-inspired intro and a charming high-tone vocal.
The vocals are both cute and cool, enchanting many listeners.
The chorus feels pleasantly restrained rather than overly soaring.
Another point is that many women resonate with the lyrics.
Resident of the EyeL’Arc〜en〜Ciel
L’Arc~en~Ciel’s hyde effortlessly delivers enchanting, silky high notes that make you swoon.
“Hitomi no Juunin” is one of those songs where you can’t help but be captivated by his smooth high-tone voice.
There are parts in an extremely high key—so high you might wonder if even a female singer could reach them.
Simply astounding.
It’s a track packed with the essence of L’Arc~en~Ciel’s world, showcasing the allure of those soaring highs.
A Cruel Angel’s ThesisTakahashi Yoko
When it comes to karaoke classics, this is definitely the one! This is the famous masterpiece everyone knows: Yoko Takahashi’s “A Cruel Angel’s Thesis.” It gained popularity as the theme song for director Hideaki Anno’s hit anime series Neon Genesis Evangelion.
With its sense of speed and a rhythm that makes you want to dance, it’s a luxurious track packed with all the elements of a hit.
When you sing it at karaoke, go for a powerful high-tone voice like Yoko Takahashi’s! It’s guaranteed to get the crowd going!
Goodbyeofukōsu
Released in December 1979, this is Off Course’s 17th single, featuring Kazumasa Oda—arguably the original high-tenor voice.
I first heard this song when I was in elementary school, experiencing it in real time, and I remember being stunned by the clarity of those high notes.
His upper register doesn’t sound like something trained through vocal exercises; I’m sure his natural voice is simply very high.
He’s truly a born high-tone singer! It’s not a soft falsetto, nor is it a tearing shout—please enjoy a very natural high tone.
There probably aren’t many people who can recreate this vibe at karaoke just as it is.
DOLLSJanne Da Arc
Released in May 2004 as Janne Da Arc’s 19th single.
It’s a mid-tempo pop song where you can fully appreciate yasu’s renowned high-tone vocals.
While it does have some of the characteristic quirks typical of visual kei bands’ singing, it’s a track with very clear, transparent vocals.
If you plan to sing this at karaoke, it’s probably best not to imitate the distinctive phrasing too much (lol).
AS ONEUVERworld
UVERworld’s 36th single, released in March 2020.
Their distinctive mixture rock, which emphasizes slightly overdriven synths rather than the classic rock distortion guitar, is alive and well in this track.
It’s a very unique and powerful rock number.
Adding even more punch is TAKUYA∞’s sharply edged high-tone voice.
Compared to overseas artists, his high register may be a touch thinner, but the power that doesn’t fade even in the upper range is undeniably appealing.
I bet many amateur and indie male singers aspire to have a voice like this.
