Songs by male artists known for their captivating deep voices. Classic Japanese hits and recommended popular tracks.
These days, male vocalists with high tones are especially popular, and it feels like we hear fewer songs sung with deep, rugged low voices.
Still, that resonant low register that echoes to the core is something many men aspire to, and I suspect plenty of women also find themselves saying, “I get chills from a smoky, masculine singing voice!”
When a male artist known for his striking low notes sings from a woman’s perspective, it can actually highlight feminine allure and sound even more captivating.
This time, we’ve gathered classic tracks by male artists whose irresistibly rich low vocals steal the show.
Go ahead and lose yourself in these stylish, moody low voices.

rose flowerkururi
Quruli’s seventh single, released in January 2001.
It was also used as an insert song for the TBS drama “Orange Days.” Although the theme here is “the charm of the low end,” it’s not about rich, resonant low notes; rather, the piece features many lower-pitched tones and a laid-back melody, delivered with a somewhat loose, relaxed vocal style—that’s where its appeal lies, I think.
This way of singing might sound easy, but it’s surprisingly hard to pull off when you actually try it!
GOD_iNumber_i
Number_i is a dance-vocal group supported by women across a wide range of ages.
Their sophisticated dance performances and hip-hop-centered sound are striking.
From their tracks, the one I especially recommend for men with lower voices is GOD_i.
It’s a hip-hop-focused piece, and the hook features very low vocals.
While the rap itself is slightly on the challenging side, the vocal range makes it relatively easy to perform—so consider adding it to your repertoire.

December 17CRAZY KEN BAND
The greatest sound machine in the East: Crazy Ken Band.
Known for tracks like “Tiger & Dragon,” they’re a stylish, sophisticated band with serious chops.
Arguably, they’re the only group that’s mixed elements of R&B and soul into enka and pushed the sound this far into the neo realm.
The piece where you can savor frontman Ken Yokoyama’s low-register voice is “December 17.” Written as an insert song for the popular game Yakuza 2, it features a deeply cool set of lyrics and a vocal line that makes the most of his bass tones.
helm’N bass10-FEET
10-FEET, a band that’s been gaining more and more popularity lately, stands out among Japanese rock bands for incorporating reggae as an essential element.
Their highly original sound has earned them strong acclaim within the industry.
Among their tracks, the one I especially recommend is “helm’N bass.” The song opens with a reggae-style arrangement, letting you savor a deep, Deejay-like low-register vocal.
Be sure to check it out.
TRUE LOVEFujii Fumiya
This was Fumiya Fujii’s second single and his first release after The Checkers disbanded.
It came out in November 1993.
It was also the first song he composed himself.
Perhaps because of that, the melody is crafted to make the most of Fujii’s rich, low, sweet voice, resulting in a track that lets you fully enjoy his vocals and singing.
Amid that low register, the contrast with the falsetto touches and the high, belted notes in the chorus and other parts is exquisite as well.
Space Battleship Yamatosasaki isao
The theme song of the popular Showa-era anime Space Battleship Yamato is sung by Isao Sasaki.
Both the anime itself and its theme are such classics that they hardly need any introduction anymore.
Sasaki’s resonant low vocals, combined with a thick, full-bodied male chorus, lend the piece a quasi-military color that heightens Yamato’s heroic atmosphere.
However, the kind of taut, powerful low notes you hear in this song are actually quite hard to produce when you try singing it yourself, which really showcases Sasaki’s exceptional vocal ability.
FlareBUMP OF CHICKEN
This is BUMP OF CHICKEN’s 15th single, released digitally in February 2021.
At first listen, some people might perceive vocalist Motoo Fujiwara’s voice as slightly high-pitched, but it actually contains a very wide range of frequencies.
The depth of his vocals in the lower-register passages is remarkable, and the contrast with the high notes in the chorus enhances the song’s appeal.
Combined with its slightly wistful, ballad-like tone, the track showcases the full charm of his singing.
