I’ll be there for yougirudo
A ballad by the V-kei band, Guild.
The vocalist ryuichi is highly praised for his singing ability, and the way he uses mixed voice effectively in this song will be extremely helpful for anyone looking to learn mixed voice.
He skillfully switches between a soft mixed voice for gentle passages and a powerful chest voice for the stronger parts—truly impressive! This video is from a live show at Shibuya Public Hall, and it was his first time performing a piano-and-vocal set.
It’s remarkable how solidly he sings even while playing the piano, which he isn’t yet fully accustomed to.

You’re My Only Shinin’ StarKadamatsu Toshiki
This song was originally written by Toshiki Kadomatsu for singer and actress Miho Nakayama in 1988, but what I’m introducing here is the later self-cover version by Kadomatsu himself.
In this Kadomatsu version, aside from the powerfully sung sections in the chorus, it seems to be sung mostly in mix voice—or something very close to it—making it an ideal piece to practice for mastering mix voice.
When you practice, try to avoid tightening your throat as much as possible, and aim the sound toward the middle of your upper palate.
Since it’s a ballad, keep your overall tone and delivery soft, and practice creating a clear contrast with the more powerful parts like the final chorus!
Go HigherWayV
WayV is a Chinese boy group that made their Japanese debut in 2024 and has been drawing attention for their high-level performances.
Among their works, the one I especially recommend as a reference for mixed voice is Go Higher.
The key point of this track is the section right before the final chorus.
The mixed voice there is extremely high, so it might be difficult to imitate, but the tone is clean and makes for a good reference.
I also recommend watching live footage and paying attention to their mouth movements.
Goodest BaddestTHE RAMPAGE vs THE JET BOY BANGERZ
Goodest Baddest is a track by two EXILE-affiliated groups, THE RAMPAGE and THE JET BOY BANGERZ.
It’s a number with a distinctive rhythm and a somewhat unconventional structure.
The key section of this piece is the part right before the chorus.
Some members sing it in falsetto, but since it doesn’t require long sustained notes, it’s perfect for practicing mixed voice.
At first, don’t worry about volume—focus on proper vocal production.
As you do, your volume will naturally improve over time, so give it a try for reference.
In conclusion
Through practicing mixed-voice exercises, you’ve likely gotten a taste of the depth of vocal production. By tackling high-note drills, you should gradually begin to reach ranges that were previously out of reach. Mastering vocal control doesn’t happen overnight, but the very process of hearing your voice change will bring great joy. It does require lots of repetition, but keep expanding the fun of singing by practicing steadily within your limits!
