Indigo WaltzKubota Toshinobu
Toshinobu Kubota’s masterpiece “Indigo Waltz.” Many people probably associate him more with “LA LA LA LOVE SONG” or “Missing,” but if you’re serious about improving your vocal skills, I definitely recommend “Indigo Waltz.” There are two main reasons.
First, it’s in 3/4 time, a rhythm many Japanese singers find challenging.
Second, it features lots of long tones and vocal improvisation.
Since many recent songs shy away from powerful vocals and sustained notes, it’s better to tackle pieces like this if you want to build real vocal ability.
Give it a try.
Become my boyfriend and be gentle with me.Okamura Yasuyuki
Yasuyuki Okamura is a singer-songwriter who was active in the 1980s and 1990s and has recently been drawing renewed attention.
Influenced by the great artist Prince, he’s known for a genre-defying musical style and a distinctive, well-regarded vocal delivery.
His classic track “Become My Boyfriend and Be Kind” is perfect for learning about groove.
Blending funk and hip-hop into a kind of disco music, this piece is ideal for practicing how to catch the feel with your instincts rather than through theory.
Until we meet againOzaki Kiyohiko
This was Kiyohiko Ozaki’s second solo single, released on March 5, 1971.
The greatest appeal of Ozaki’s singing lies in his richly resonant, canzone-like vocal style, which can be fully appreciated in this song.
In particular, the high notes in the chorus showcase that charm to the fullest.
Also, considering that, unlike today, it was impossible back then to apply pitch correction to recorded vocal tracks, his superb intonation is nothing short of astonishing.
While it may be quite difficult to acquire this kind of vocal production and pitch sense through self-study alone, I believe this song is an excellent practice piece for anyone aiming to improve their singing.
For your next step up, be sure to cultivate vocal skills that approach Ozaki’s own!
LOST IN PARADISE feat. AKLOAli
ALI is one of Japan’s leading funk bands.
Their sound is characterized by a blend of funk and jazz, and lately they’ve often collaborated with hip-hop artists and rappers.
Among ALI’s tracks, the one I especially recommend is LOST IN PARADISE feat.
AKLO.
While it spans a wide vocal range, it emphasizes groove even more, making it perfect for anyone looking to sharpen their sense of rhythm.

FateOfisharu Higedan Dism
This is Official HIGE DANDism’s third single, released in July 2019.
The most important point when singing this song is, of course, how well you can control and deliver the high notes.
If you tighten your throat and end up using a so-called “throat voice,” you’ll likely crack or become breathy more often.
Practice supporting your upper body firmly with your core and producing high notes without squeezing your throat.
To keep the power in the high notes, work on delivering thick, full high tones.
LOOP ~One of the BE:ST-03 RYUHEI~RYUHEI
This song was created as part of BE:FIRST’s solo project and is RYUHEI’s solo track.
The vocal range is around D3–D5, with a focus on the lower register.
Overall, the song has a calm vibe, so it should be easy to sing for lower-voiced men who aren’t comfortable with high notes.
The chorus goes a bit higher, but since it’s a stylish track with strong R&B elements, singing gently in falsetto without belting fits the song well.
I think it’s nice to have a song like this in your repertoire, so please give it a listen!
JingleYuuma
Yuma, who is active as the “good singer” of the YouTuber group Comdot, has a track called Jingle that my students often sing when their throat condition isn’t great because they find it easy to sing.
I think that means it’s likely in a comfortable range for many others as well.
Jingle’s vocal range is B2–D#4, staying mainly in the low to mid range overall.
Of course it builds from verse A to verse B to the chorus, but unlike many other songs, the range doesn’t change much, so it might be easier to keep pitch too!
