Remioromen – March 9

A classic that continues to be widely sung as a graduation and wedding song.

The overall vocal range is C3–G4, making it popular as an “easy-to-sing for men” track.

The tempo is relaxed, so you can take solid breaths and prepare while producing your voice comfortably.

Up to the chorus, the melody stays in the lower range, so trace the pitches carefully.

In the chorus the range rises, and if you’re not used to it, you might tense up.

Take a good breath on the beat before the chorus, then release it all at once!

Mr.Children “I Want to Hold You” MUSIC VIDEO

It’s an eternal love song written and composed by vocalist Kazutoshi Sakurai.

It first appeared on the album “Kind of Love.” Although total sales were about 60,000 copies, it later received Gold Disc certification and continues to be loved across generations.

The overall vocal range spans D3 to A#4, expanding and building toward the latter half.

When singing, project your voice confidently without hesitation to maintain stability throughout.

Since head voice appears at the end of the chorus, keep resonance in your head so you can transition smoothly from chest voice to falsetto.

Also, the final chorus modulates upward.

Raise your energy and stay mindful so your pitch doesn’t drop!
