Male (21–30)
lyric poemL’Arc〜en〜Ciel
L’Arc~en~Ciel’s song “Jojoushi” is highly acclaimed overseas.
The more you love L’Arc’s musicality, the more highly you’ll likely rate this piece.
Its greatest charm is, above all, the flowing, beautiful vocal line.
Although the song frequently switches between falsetto and chest voice, all the falsetto parts sit at a certain height, so even those who lack confidence in their falsetto volume can feel at ease.
Rather than lowering the key to adjust, it’s recommended to focus on producing your head voice and adjust by raising the key instead.
Please use this as a reference.
Hikari TowaORANGE RANGE
This song was released in October 2025 and was created as the theme song for the film “Strawberry Moon: A Love with Six Months to Live.” ORANGE RANGE, who were hugely popular in the Heisei era, are back with a tearjerking Range for the Reiwa era! “Towano Hikari” is an emotional ballad following in the footsteps of “Hana” and “Love Parade.” The overall vocal range isn’t too high, making it easy to sing with feeling, so I highly recommend it.
Also, since ORANGE RANGE has three vocalists with divided parts, splitting the parts among singers is guaranteed to be fun! Speaking of Range’s ballads, I always love RYO’s part that comes in at the very end.
I’d love to hear that section sung with a cool, rich voice! Be careful not to strain your throat—lift your facial muscles and use plenty of breath.
Male (31–40)
Goodbye ElegySuda Masaki
This theme is a perfect match for “Sayonara Elegy”! It was released on February 21, 2018, and serves as the theme song for the NTV drama “Todome no Kiss.” The song was written and composed by Huwie Ishizaki, and his own version is also available on streaming services.
Since Masaki Suda’s version has a lower vocal range, I think it’s easier for men to sing.
For the non-chorus parts, singing with a breathy, spoken style suits the mood of the song.
In the latter half of the chorus, the build-up feels like an emotional explosion and is really cool.
There’s a melody line not found in the first chorus that goes a bit higher, so be careful not to force your voice.
The “na-” and “ma-” consonant lines tend to sound nasal and are hard to articulate, so it’s important to enunciate more clearly than you think!
SUNHoshino Gen
Gen Hoshino is a singer-songwriter who enjoys wide popularity for his broad musical range, from stylish tracks rooted in R&B and neo-soul to catchy, pop-leaning songs.
He has many classics, but the one I especially recommend for men with particularly low voices is SUN.
This piece sits in an average vocal range of mid1 D# to hi A.
While the arrangement highlights the lower register typical of Hoshino’s vocal quality, the hi A may feel slightly low as a ceiling for men with deep voices, so consider lowering the key with that note as your reference point.
March 9Remioromen
Remioromen, a band that defined an era.
Their signature song “March 9th” is still a staple graduation song, frequently used at ceremonies and across social media.
The song’s vocal range is very narrow—mid1 C to mid2 G—making it easy to sing for men with lower voices.
Additionally, the lowest note, mid1 C, appears in the chorus, which lets low-voiced singers bring their most attractive low tones right into the hook—another reason this track is highly recommended.
It’s also widely known, so give it a try.
Lemon piemakaroni enpitsu
With a tempo of 102, Macaroni Enpitsu’s “Lemon Pie” is characterized by being easy to catch the rhythm—not too fast and not too slow.
The overall vocal range of the song is D3 to A#3, which is relatively narrow for a male song.
The verses (A-melo to B-melo) are sung in a conversational style, so you don’t need to worry too much about precise pitch.
The beginning of the second verse is rap-like, and as long as your words lock into the rhythm there, it shouldn’t be a problem either.
If you keep humming the chorus over and over, you’ll likely find it very singable.
For the chorus, try practicing with humming.
The key is to hum lightly without engaging your throat too much.
FlowerNaka Kousuke
Takao Nakashima, known for his distinctive musical style that blends island-music elements with pop, has a unique sound.
It’s said that “Hana” was written by Naotaro Moriyama with Nakashima’s vocal timbre and worldview in mind.
My students practice this song too, and every time I listen, I think, “What a beautiful piece!” Nakashima’s voice has an airy openness, and his transitions into falsetto are completely seamless—so beautiful.
The overall range of Hana is E3 to B4, which is quite singable even in chest voice, but since we have the chance, let’s also use falsetto to bring out the bittersweet emotion.
If falsetto is difficult for you, start by singing gently without tensing up.
Take a full breath and sing with the image of projecting your voice right in front of you.
To make the switch to falsetto in the chorus smoother, it also helps to keep your facial muscles lifted throughout.
