Yorushika – Sun (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

Just because a man has a low voice doesn’t mean he can’t sing songs originally for female vocalists.

Regardless of gender, what matters is the song’s vocal range.

If the range falls within a certain span, you can sing it without issues by adjusting to the appropriate key.

With that in mind, I recommend Taiyō.

It’s a masterpiece by Yorushika with a very narrow vocal range.

If you set it to the right key, even men with low voices can sing it comfortably, and since the vocal line is simple, consider adding it to your repertoire.

Kai Band – Street Corner of Betrayal

The Kai Band, a group that gained popularity with a distinctive musicality that blends elements of Japanese kayōkyoku into rock.

Many men in their 60s were likely drawn to their unadorned, rugged sound.

Among Kai Band’s songs, one I particularly recommend is “Uragiri no Machikado” (Street Corner of Betrayal).

The song spans mid1 C# to hi A#, which is somewhat wide, but since the average pitch is quite low, anyone who can produce brief mid-to-high notes should be able to sing it without issue.

However, because there are relatively few rests compared to the many long tones, it’s necessary to make adjustments—such as lowering the key slightly or tucking the chin—to avoid over-projecting your voice.
