This song, the theme for Sword Art Online, is a rock tune overflowing with that high-speed energy typical of anime tracks! The contrast between the chorus and the other sections is clearly defined, so nailing that dynamic shift will definitely earn you points! Plus, her husky vocals are captivating and match the song’s style perfectly.
I think many women like husky male voices, and the reverse is true as well! If you’re a woman who thinks your voice might be on the husky side, definitely give this one a try!
