sumika / Anemone [Music Video]

Featured on the album “Familia,” released in July 2017, it’s characterized by bittersweet yet warm lyrics and melodies that depict the misaligned feelings between a man and a woman and scenes where past and present intersect.

The song’s overall vocal range is C3–A#4, and it’s a refreshing mid-tempo band number.

The vocals start with the chorus, then move through verse A, verse B, and the chorus, with the bridge raising the range slightly.

The very last phrase is the key—if you can’t deliver it solidly, the song won’t end satisfyingly.

Be sure to clearly imagine the final note so you don’t suddenly push your voice.

It’s great if you can cut off right before the high note to take a breath! Then use that inhaled momentum for a quick, punchy attack.
