[For Men] Mixed Voice Practice Songs: Reference Tracks to Make High Notes Easier (41–50)
VanillaGACKT
It was GACKT’s second single and one of his signature songs.
It’s characterized by sexual, provocative lyrics and a distinctive sound that incorporates ska rhythms.
It reportedly reached No.
4 on the Oricon weekly chart and sold about 250,000 copies.
It might be hard to imagine for people who mainly know songs from the Reiwa era, but GACKT has a very wide vocal range and outstanding singing ability.
In Vanilla, the range spans B2 to C5, so many people actually trying to sing it will probably think, “It’s low and it’s high!” The tempo is fast, and the key modulates in the final chorus, pushing the pitch even higher, so it may be tough to nail on a first try.
Make sure to resonate solidly in your chest so you can sing it powerfully!
[For Men] Mix Voice Practice Songs: Reference Tracks That Make High Notes Easier (51–60)
Young adultmakaroni enpitsu
A track from the 2019 mini-album “season,” it’s an uplifting song that stands by young people who haven’t fully grown into adulthood.
The lyrical theme is “searching for love between despair and hope,” and it’s a challenging piece that demands emotional vocals.
The overall vocal range is C3–B4, so many male singers may be able to sing it in the original key.
However, the pitch in the bridge (C section) is very difficult, and without repeated listening you may lose track of where you are singing.
In the final chorus that follows, the song modulates up by a whole step, so use your breath support and avoid forcing it by straining your throat.
PretenderOfisharu Higedan Dism
This is Official HIGE DANDism’s second single, released in May 2019.
It was written as the theme song for the film The Confidence Man JP: The Movie and was also used as the ending theme for TV Tokyo’s Ariyoshi eeee! Souda! Ima kara Omaenchi de Game Shinai? in January 2023.
For Official HIGE DANDism, this was reportedly their first movie theme song.
Musically, it’s a bright, medium-tempo track that fully showcases the appeal of pianist/vocalist Satoshi Fujihara’s high singing voice.
Within the song, a very effective mixed voice is used—particularly in the high notes of the A section—as a contrast to the powerful, chest-voice high tones in the chorus.
Practicing with this song can be very helpful for learning mixed voice technique.
When you practice, avoid constricting your throat; aim for a production close to falsetto, and try to place the voice so it resonates against the upper palate.
Dear daysHirai Ken
This is Ken Hirai’s 34th single, released in May 2011.
It was used as the theme song for TBS’s 60th anniversary drama “JIN.” It’s a beautifully crafted ballad where Hirai’s gentle high-tone voice resonates with great charm.
In this song, the vocals you hear from the pre-chorus through the chorus offer many helpful points for anyone aiming to master mixed voice and falsetto.
Even in the A-melody parts, which are sung in chest voice and not particularly high in range, he incorporates the advantages of a mixed-voice approach.
I recommend studying and practicing with the intention of perfectly copying his performance first.
I’m sure you’ll gain a lot from it!
Run Away[Alexandros]
![Run Away[Alexandros]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/hWiki8UOImY/sddefault.jpg)
An emotional rock number that portrays the will to push forward while still affirming the choice to run away! If you can nail it at karaoke, it’s a song that lets you embody the strength to stay true to yourself.
With the triple challenge of high notes, long sustains, and fast phrasing—especially in the chorus—it’s a battle between your throat and your mental game! Since [Alexandros]’s vocalist, Mr.
Kawakami, uses plenty of beautiful falsetto high tones, it’s highly recommended for those who are good at falsetto-leaning vocals.
The overall range of the song sits high as well, spanning A3 to F#5.
Open your throat well, add speed to your breath, and sing in falsetto.
If you send a thin stream of sound straight upward from the top of your head, you should be able to produce falsetto effectively.
It might also help to imagine your head being pulled upward from above!
mixed nutsOfisharu Higedan Dism
Official HIGE DANDism’s hit song “Mixed Nuts,” known as the theme for the popular anime SPY x FAMILY, is one of their most beloved tracks.
Despite its catchy melody, it contains several elements that make it quite challenging.
Most noteworthy is the vocal range.
Including the falsetto parts, the song spans a very wide range from mid1 D# to hihi A#, with repeated hi C# notes in the chorus.
Overall, the song is characterized by its high tessitura, making vocal stamina essential.
M87Yonezu Kenshi
Kenshi Yonezu’s 12th CD single, released in May 2022.
As many of you may guess from the title, it was created as the theme song for the film Shin Ultraman.
For those familiar with classic “Ultraman songs,” this track has a surprisingly mature mood.
A major factor in crafting that sense of maturity is Yonezu’s vocal delivery, which skillfully switches between chest voice, mixed voice, and falsetto.
On first listen, it seems he makes extensive use of mixed voice in the relatively gentle passages, such as the A section.
Try singing by letting the sound gently resonate toward the upper palate as much as possible; it should be great practice for developing your mixed voice.
Of course, aim for smooth transitions between chest voice and falsetto in the high-tone sections like the chorus as well.
Be careful not to sing with a tight throat—doing so not only ruins the song’s atmosphere but can also strain your vocal cords.
