greatest common divisorRADWIMPS

Among RADWIMPS’ songs, this one doesn’t sit too high in range, so you don’t need to belt.

As long as you stay mindful of the rhythmic timing, you can aim for a high score! In particular, the A verse stays mostly in the mid–low (mid1) range, so it’s good to sing gently, as if speaking.

The range gradually rises from the B verse, but there’s no need to push your voice.

If you keep the breath flowing and imagine resonating in the head, your head voice will take on a chesty quality, and once you find your comfortable spot, it becomes much easier to sing.

Also, some may find the rhythm tricky where the melody gets fast, but since the range isn’t too high, you’ll be fine if you place the notes carefully and sing with precision.

As the pitch climbs, imagine resonating in the head and try keeping it light!
