Intense Songs (31–40)

This gameSuzuki Konomi

Do you know the anison singer Konomi Suzuki? She’s really cool, so if you like anime songs, you should definitely give her a listen! In “This game,” the notes are extremely high throughout, and it even modulates in the last chorus, making it go even higher.

The overall range of the song is B3 to F5, which is generally on the higher side, and if you try to belt it all in chest voice, your throat will get wrecked (lol).

Suzuki mixes in head voice skillfully.

When hitting notes as high as in “This game,” it’s easier if you focus on resonance rather than just pushing or belting.

That said, it’s not something anyone can do right away, so first try placing a hand on your chest and check that your chest is resonating.

Also, if you forget to breathe, you won’t be able to hit high notes, so take plenty of air through your mouth and line up your breathing with the song’s timing!
