[For Men] Mixed Voice Practice Songs: Reference Tracks to Make High Notes Easier (41–50)
TAKE IT BACKDa-iCE
Da-iCE is a high-performance dance-vocal group that has gained widespread popularity.
When you think of mixed voice, aren’t they the first that come to mind? Among their songs, the one I especially recommend is TAKE IT BACK.
This track contains a large number of mixed-voice parts, all of which push right up to the edge of falsetto.
It takes considerable training and natural ability to sing it through, but it’s more than sufficient as a reference piece.

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.
Lovers AgainEXILE
Released in January 2007 as EXILE’s 22nd single.
Speaking of EXILE’s ATSUSHI, he’s now practically the poster child for male singers who use mixed voice! This is a track where you can enjoy a very beautiful, falsetto-leaning mixed voice.
Not limited to this song, EXILE’s tracks generally don’t require extremely high ranges, making them ideal practice material for achieving a clear mixed voice.
The Devil In MeDIR EN GREY
Among visual kei bands, DIR EN GREY is known as one of the top groups that frequently use mixed voice and falsetto.
From their catalog, I especially recommend “The Devil In Me” as a reference for mixed voice.
Kyo, who is among the best vocalists in the visual kei scene, delivers stunning mixed voice and death growls, offering many parts you can study.
While it’s difficult to replicate, it’s an excellent track to use as a reference.
broad daylightKing Gnu
King Gnu’s second single, released as a digital-only work in February 2019.
This song is likely to be very challenging as a practice piece for mixed voice.
The wistful high notes at the beginning may sound like falsetto at first, but in fact the performance skillfully switches between mixed voice and falsetto to achieve this vocal expression.
After the rhythm kicks in, powerful high notes are delivered with a falsetto that contains a strong chest-voice component.
If you can master this song perfectly, your vocal technique will improve significantly.
Love and romanceNovelbright
Hailing from Osaka, the rock band Novelbright released this digital-only single in April 2022, ahead of the album Assort that features the track.
The vocals from the B-melody into the chorus are a great reference for effective use of mixed voice and falsetto.
In particular, the chorus melody has many sections with large pitch leaps, making it ideal as practice material.
Try practicing while avoiding constricting your throat as much as possible, and imagine placing the voice against your upper palate.
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.
