Last LoveKato Miria9rank/position
A ballad single released in 2010.

There are many long notes at the ends of phrases, and if you can express emotion as if you’re diving into the song, natural vibrato tends to come out and it matches the track perfectly.
The arrangement builds toward the latter half, and because you keep the breath flowing as you sing, there are always sustained parts.
You can lightly add a wavering tail from the very beginning, of course, but if you want to practice vibrato while sustaining, the melody line after the last chorus is recommended.
Try singing with a touch of heartache, imagining yourself gently swaying along with the feeling.
