Butter-FlyWada Kōji
One of the defining anime songs of the Heisei era, this popular track frequently ranks near the top in all-time anime song lists! It’s characterized by its uptempo, powerful melody and vocals, and plenty of people sing it at karaoke.
The chorus in particular stays in the high register, so your stamina and vocal power will be tested.
If you let your guard down even for a moment, your pitch can drop into your throat.
This is a part where you really want to belt comfortably in chest voice, so take in a big breath through your mouth and project your voice far and confidently.
Just that alone should help your voice carry much better.
Keeping your energy up while singing is important too!
DIVE TO BLUEL’Arc〜en〜Ciel
DIVE TO BLUE, a classic L’Arc~en~Ciel song themed around freedom.
True to their early work, it leans heavily into pop characteristics, with catchy vocal lines and guitar phrases throughout.
The song spans a relatively wide range in the lower register (mid1 C to hi C), so rather than favoring higher voices, it tends to be easier for singers with a tone that can provide solid fullness in the mid-to-low range.
Since falsetto appears in the chorus and the bridge, it’s recommended to set the key based on how comfortably you can produce those parts.
deskissthe molars’
The band “the Molars,” beloved by hardcore music nerds for their straightforward rock, centers on classic Japanese punk.
They’re marked by unadorned lyrics and direct, no-frills vocals—stylistically, you might call them the Reiwa-era Blue Hearts.
Among their tracks, the one I especially recommend is Desu-Kiss.
While the chorus features some falsetto, the overall range sits in the low-to-mid register, so most men with an average vocal range should be able to sing it in the original key without any trouble.
Bunny GirlAKASAKI
The hit song “Bunny Girl” has become so popular nationwide that there’s hardly a day you don’t hear it on TikTok or Instagram.
It’s well known as the signature work of the young singer-songwriter AKASAKI.
Among recent hits, this piece has a particularly narrow vocal range.
When the original key is too low, people sometimes sing it an octave higher, and this song can be sung comfortably even at that higher octave.
If you adjust the key, it becomes even easier to sing, so consider adding it to your repertoire.
I wishL’Arc〜en〜Ciel
When it comes to L’Arc~en~Ciel’s songs, they don’t just span a wide high range—they also extend deep into the lows, making them extremely difficult to perform unless the singer is strong in both.
However, “I wish” is different.
This song’s range is mid1E to mid2G, which is among the narrowest in L’Arc~en~Ciel’s catalog.
Although the overall range is narrow, it isn’t a song that leans heavily on the low register, so even those with higher voices should be able to sing it without any issues.
Lies and TruthL’Arc〜en〜Ciel
L’Arc~en~Ciel, with hyde’s vocals that are both smooth and fierce, leaves a strong impression.
Among their songs, the classic “Lies and Truth” boasts exceptional delicacy.
While it lacks sheer power, the falsetto in the chorus is a major challenge, featuring sharp rises and falls in pitch and even low-range falsetto.
That said, because a powerful vocal isn’t required, you could say that once you clear the falsetto sections, there aren’t many difficult points left.
If you’re confident in your head voice control, definitely give it a try.
The Fourth Avenue CafeL’Arc〜en〜Ciel
Among L’Arc~en~Ciel’s many hit numbers, The Fourth Avenue Cafe is renowned as a hidden gem.
It’s a piece that carries a subtle sense of emotion beneath its brightness, distinguished by vocals that appeal to the listener’s feelings.
The song’s range is quite broad, from mid1C to hiD#.
While it includes some lower notes and also reaches fairly high, which might make it seem difficult, the pitch movement isn’t very drastic, so it’s a song that’s relatively easy to keep in tune.
