fall from favor; leaving the capital in disgrace (metaphor for a decline in status or being sidelined)Yorushika

A song by Yorushika released in April 2023.

Regarding the mixed voice in this track, it’s used very effectively, especially in the brief moments where the pitch suddenly rises—most notably around the A-melody parts—to express a gently airy high tone.

This is not a head voice that relies on nasal resonance like typical falsetto; instead, try practicing by aiming the voice broadly toward the entire upper palate.

Since the sections using mixed voice are very short, I think this song is also useful for practicing smooth transitions between vocal registers.

The instantly catchy chorus sticks after one listen, and if everyone in your karaoke group sings it together, it’ll definitely liven up the room.
