W/X/YTani Yuuki
Released in May 2021, “W/X/Y” is one of Tani Yuuki’s signature songs! It’s a recommended love song for those who want to practice falsetto naturally without strain, and it makes it easy to move from chest voice to mixed voice to falsetto.
I’ve taught it a few times myself, and the melody line was tougher than I expected.
I recommend firmly memorizing the melody line before singing.
In particular, the B section has a melody line that clearly uses falsetto when you listen, and Tani Yuuki generally has a gentle tone that gives his singing a light, airy quality.
Start by imitating: take a good breath, then sing gently as you produce your voice.
Since falsetto uses a lot of breath, the key point is to “take in a lot of air.”

A prayer resounding across the skyAqua Timez
Aqua Timez, the band that has made a limited-time comeback through the end of 2025.
Their “Sora Ippai ni Kanaderu Inori” is a new track that reconstructs the classic album of the same name released in 2005, and it’s built on highly dramatic and moving lyrics and melodies.
While the song isn’t particularly high in range overall, the chorus features phrases that sit roughly between mixed voice and chest voice.
Because they must be sung on the vowel sound “i,” it can be considered slightly more difficult than typical mixed-voice passages.
Driver’s HighL’Arc〜en〜Ciel
Among L’Arc~en~Ciel’s many songs, “Driver’s High” is one of the most popular.
It also served as the theme song for the anime GTO, which helped it gain worldwide acclaim.
The song’s vocal range is quite wide, from mid1 E to high B.
While high B is often sung in falsetto, in this song it’s delivered with a mixed voice, and it appears frequently—six times in total.
It’s a perfect piece for practicing mixed voice, which requires strong projection, so definitely give it a try.
CANDYMr.Children
Mr.Children’s classic song “CANDY,” included on the acclaimed 2005 album “I♡U.” This piece is characterized by a fairly wide vocal range of mid1 C# to hi B, with the highest chest note at hi A.
Although that note doesn’t appear often, it comes up once in each pre-modulation chorus, so before singing, be sure to focus on diaphragmatic breathing and conscious breath control.
If you’re confident in your upper range, it might be interesting to challenge yourself by singing the post-modulation hi B not in falsetto but with a mixed voice.
parabolaOfisharu Higedan Dism
Among J-POP bands, Official HIGE DANDism stands out for songs that somehow evoke elements of Black music.
The vocalist, Satoshi Fujihara, is known for having a very high voice.
Their track “Parabola” showcases Fujihara’s soaring high tones; while its overall range isn’t extremely wide at mid1 F to hi D, it frequently hits hi A# and hi C, making it a perfect piece for building endurance in your mixed voice.
Agari Sagari feat. R-Shitei & CHEHONSPICY CHOCOLATE
It’s an upbeat track that depicts a soulful comeback, created by a powerhouse collaboration between top HIPHOP and reggae artists.
Released in August 2023, it’s used as the opening theme for TV Tokyo’s “Rhyuha-R SINCE2001.” It’s basically nonstop, rap-centered vocals—there’s a lot to take in and memorizing the lyrics can be tough—but you don’t need to worry about pitch.
As long as you lock in the timing of the melodic lines, you can pull it off in a really cool way! Instead of trying to memorize everything at once, go through the lyrics from the top in order while looking at them.
YouTube lets you change the playback speed, so that’s a great option too!
Great personVaundy
This is an inspiration song for the NHK Taiga drama “Reach Beyond the Blue Sky.” It’s interesting that the piece was created, inspired by the life of Eiichi Shibusawa, who is depicted on the 10,000-yen bill.
“Iseijin” is a song with a lively tempo, and the vocal range is set in a key that’s comfortable for male singers.
There are some passages where the pitch moves subtly at the ends of phrases, but I think it’s best to sing straight through at first without worrying too much about that.
Rather than forcing your pitch to match, focus on proper vocal production using your vocal cords; that will make it easier to sing in tune.
Try lifting your eyebrows and consciously projecting your voice clearly!
