The rap parts are intentionally kept to a minimum, and as the title suggests, there’s a clear attempt to make it a true ballad, which also makes it easy to sing.

It delicately portrays tender feelings toward a loved one, creating a gentle, heartwarming atmosphere.

The Departure of LoveOfisharu Higedan Dism

This is a heartbreak ballad included on the album “MAN IN THE MIRROR.” The overall vocal range spans E3 to F5, and although the higher notes appear more in the latter half and may feel high, the clear, band-driven drum sound makes it very easy to groove to.

The B section initially shifts into an odd meter, so it might make you go “huh?” at first, but if you deliver the lyrics straightforwardly, you’ll be able to ride the melodic line.

When singing, keep a lightly bouncing feel at all times—imagine you are the drummer and lock in the rhythm firmly, and you should find it easier to sing.
