Hirai Dai / Untitled Today (Lyric Video)

Hirai Dai’s warm yet powerful singing voice and message resonated with many people, generating a huge response, including surpassing 100 million total streams! The song itself is a positive track that sings about the preciousness of everyday life and hope for the future, featuring gospel-style choruses.

Since there are almost no high notes and it has a bright tone, I think it’s consistently easy to sing at karaoke.

When you sing it, aim for a slightly “going-out” voice and keep your energy a bit higher; that will bring out a brighter tone that matches the song’s vibe.

Because it has a gospel feel, make sure to lock in the rhythm with clap-like sounds in the backing!

tonight

Among Hirai Dai’s songs, the especially easy-to-sing and highly recommended one is “tonight.” It’s a love song with poignant lyrics and a sweet vocal tone, and it drew attention after being used on the reality show Terrace House: Aloha State! It’s a ballad with a relaxed tempo, and the overall range is C3–A4, which sits in a range that lets you sing as if speaking softly.

There are parts in the chorus sung gently in falsetto and some humming, so a sense of relaxation is crucial.

You’ll use more breath than you think, so instead of inhaling through your nose, breathe in through your mouth and release all of it in a thin stream together with your voice.

Imagining the sound resonating in your forehead or the top of your head should make it easier to produce!
