ChampionArisu
A dramatic rock ballad that really resonates with men in their 50s.
It’s also said to be surprisingly easy to score well on in karaoke.
The overall vocal range is D3 to G#4, which is basically on the lower side, so if you sing calmly you shouldn’t rush the tempo and it should be easy to sing.
In the chorus, all three members of Alice sing in harmony at once, so you’ll need to firmly confirm the main melody.
To sing with a rich, rugged tone, try resonating fully in your mouth and imagine projecting a beam from your whole mouth—this will give your voice more depth.
Opening your mouth vertically may also help.
Give it a try and sing it with your best voice!
