Unfinished as it is

Official HIGE DANDism, a four-member Japanese pop band that began their career in 2012, is widely known for hits tied to TV dramas, films, and anime.

While their catchy, up-tempo sound is a major draw, many of their lyrics are also outstanding.

Their 2016 song “Mikansei na Mama de” may lack flashiness or eccentricity, but it features striking lyrics that truly hit home.

The words speak directly to those living through a youth filled with the struggle of not being able to easily decide how to live or which path to take.

Of course, these lyrics also resonate deeply with working adults.

Amazing

A song by the four-piece piano-pop band Official HIGE DANDism, included as the B-side to their smash-hit single “Pretender.” Used as the opening theme for the travel variety show “#Kito-Kyun♡Traveler with T,” it features an arrangement that brings a rock sound to the forefront, delivering a different vibe from the A-side and really pumping up the energy.

Its arrangement, with both a sense of speed and weightlessness, seems to pair naturally with nightscapes.

It’s a rock tune that heightens the special feeling of a night drive and reaffirms Official HIGE DANDism’s broad expressive range.

Amid the year-end rush and mounting fatigue, this song gives you the courage to discover new possibilities.

Released in April 2018, the track celebrates the importance of facing yourself and continuing to take on challenges.

Clap ClapOfisharu Higedan Dism68rank/position

Clap Clap

Official HIGE DANDism’s classic “Clap Clap” is marked by its cheerful melody.

The vocal line places the verse (A-melody) in the middle range, the pre-chorus (B-melody) in the mid-high range, and the chorus in the high range.

Because there are many high phrases overall, it might seem difficult, but since it’s constructed from the middle to high ranges, the overall range isn’t actually that wide.

However, the high phrases continue for a long time, so a certain level of endurance in the upper register is required.

For those with a naturally high vocal range, the contour of the melody is relatively gentle, making it a fairly singable song.

Trailer

The song “Trailer” closes out the third mini-album Report, released ten months after the previous work.

The transparent, shimmering piano layered over the striking guitar riff feels wonderful.

The melody stays in a high register throughout, but since the vocals aren’t belted, it’s relatively easy to sing for a Hige Dandism track.

It’s addictive in a way that makes you want to keep listening, and it feels great to sing at karaoke—a song you’ll want to deliver gently and with feeling.

Set to a piano-centered ballad, Fujiwara’s signature soulful voice underscores the heartache.

It’s a breakup song that’s perfect for a quiet winter listen.

The first note of the chorus might be around A4 and slightly high, so warm up your voice and aim firmly for the pitch after preparing your breath.

When you inhale, make a surprised face, take a quick breath in, then exhale with energy.

In the final chorus, the emotion builds and the notes go higher, so lift and keep your facial muscles and eyebrows raised to maintain momentum—your voice will come out smoothly.
