[Karaoke] A Roundup of Easy-to-Sing L’Arc〜en〜Ciel Songs (1–10)

DIVE TO BLUEL’Arc〜en〜Ciel

DIVE TO BLUE, a classic L’Arc~en~Ciel song themed around freedom.

True to their early work, it leans heavily into pop characteristics, with catchy vocal lines and guitar phrases throughout.

The song spans a relatively wide range in the lower register (mid1 C to hi C), so rather than favoring higher voices, it tends to be easier for singers with a tone that can provide solid fullness in the mid-to-low range.

Since falsetto appears in the chorus and the bridge, it’s recommended to set the key based on how comfortably you can produce those parts.

An example of the strong pop-rock tendencies that characterized L’Arc~en~Ciel in the 2000s, Invitation to Freedom.

Released in 2004, this piece remains highly popular thanks to its catchy melodies and expansive, soaring phrases.

With a vocal range of mid2A to hiE, it is quite wide even among L’Arc~en~Ciel’s songs, making it relatively difficult for those with a narrower range.

However, the pitch movement isn’t particularly drastic, and many phrases emphasize sustain, so for singers with higher voices, it can be considered relatively accessible to perform.

L’Arc~en~Ciel’s signature song “winter fall” has been loved for many years.

While the smooth vocal lines and beautiful falsetto may stand out, the falsetto in this piece is a low falsetto around mid2G, so you don’t need to worry about being unable to produce it.

Although it can be harder to project volume, you should be fine if you adjust the key around the falsetto sections.

However, if you raise the key too much for the falsetto, you may lose the ability to hit the highest chest voice note, hi B, so maintaining balance is important.

Driver’s HighL’Arc〜en〜Ciel

The 17th single “Driver’s High,” used as the opening theme for the TV anime GTO.

Released as a re-cut from the sixth album ark, the track’s exhilarating vibe—and its flashy music video—generated major buzz at the time.

Since the chorus sits quite high and the tempo is fast, be sure to set a karaoke key that suits you and learn it well before singing.

The melody itself is simple, so once you get used to it, it’s an uplifting tune you can sing comfortably.

When it comes to L’Arc~en~Ciel’s signature songs, many people probably think of ‘Hitomi no Juunin’ first.

It features the band’s characteristic vocals—lustrous and at times intense.

The song’s vocal range is exceptionally wide, spanning from mid1E to hihiA.

This alone limits who can sing it, but since the tempo is relaxed, it can be considered an easy song to sing for those who can handle falsetto and sudden pitch changes without issue.
