Needless to say, Spitz have countless masterpieces and are hugely popular at karaoke, but many people feel intimidated by melodies sung in Masamune Kusano’s clear, high-tone vocals.
The 2001 release Haruka introduced here is, of course, sung in a range that can be tough for those who can’t hit high notes, but the melodic rises and falls aren’t that drastic and the line stays relatively steady, so lowering the key makes it quite manageable even for lower voices.
If you find yourself struggling partway through the soaring chorus, I recommend learning to sing with proper diaphragmatic breathing to avoid straining your throat.
Scarletsupittsu18rank/position
This heartwarming melody might be just right for the slightly chilly air of late autumn.
Its allure lies in a passionate yet gentle worldview that vows never to let go of the bond with a loved one.
The image in the lyrics of a small red light the two protect together feels like a warmth that quietly stays by your side as the season grows colder.
Released in January 1997 and used as the theme song for the drama “Melody” starring Kyoko Koizumi, the song reached No.
1 on the Oricon charts.
Give it a listen on a November night when you’re feeling a little lonely!
harborsupittsu19rank/position
Minato, with its dazzling yet wistful soundscape, is the 41st single released in 2016.
It’s a quintessential Spitz song—nostalgic, tinged with melancholy, and a track whose words slowly seep into you.
While evoking various scenes and stories at a harbor, it invites you to ‘pause for a moment and look back.’ It feels like a song that stays close to you at such times.
Just before the last chorus, a whistle enters, adding a striking sense of depth; this part features Wataru Sawabe from the band Skirt.
You might feel the hope and future that the whistling opens up.
It’s a classic that serves as a guidepost for starting anew, steeped in fond memories.
cat chigura (traditional straw cat house)supittsu20rank/position
A digital-only single by Spitz, released in June 2020.
Even among high-tone singers, there are many different types, but Spitz’s vocalist Kusano has a very gentle and beautiful voice that delivers high notes wonderfully.
This song is no exception: Kusano’s warm, clear vocals add a rich hue to the track’s tender atmosphere.
It’s a top recommendation for anyone looking for a male vocal song with gentle high tones!
