I want to sing songs that use a lot of falsetto—tracks that are also good for practicing falsetto at karaoke.

Spitz / I Should Be Able to Fly in the Sky

A song by Spitz featuring vocalist Masamune Kusano’s husky yet beautifully high voice.

Alongside “Robinson,” this track is also hugely popular at karaoke as a song people want to sing with a clear falsetto.

It’s not easy to imitate his delicate, gentle voice—so refined you’d hardly believe it’s a rock band—but if you sing along with the beautiful melody, your falsetto will come out naturally and you’ll find yourself immersed in their world.

First LoveUru

[Official] Uru “First Love” — Theme song of the film “First Love”

This is Uru’s 10th single overall, released on February 10, 2021.

It also serves as the theme song for the film “First Love.” It’s a very gentle, soft ballad, and the way Uru effectively uses her tender falsetto helps convey the song’s world even more clearly.

The slightly restrained tone at the beginning of the track and the contrast with the A-melody section are exquisitely handled.

It’s also one of the best pieces to practice mixed voice and falsetto, so if you’re aiming to master these techniques, be sure to give it a try!

Superfly “A Bouquet With Love” Music Video

A widely known smash hit by Superfly.

The vocals are soft and gentle in the low range yet never lose their core strength, and the way she switches in the high range between a piercingly powerful chest voice and a soft mixed voice is nothing short of masterful.

It’s also amazing how seamless the transitions between each vocal production are.

I imagine many people have tried this song at karaoke only to have their spirits broken and give up.

The range is wide, and the leaps from low notes to high ones make it a highly challenging piece.

That said, the parts sung in the original with shout-like chest voice can still work perfectly well if you use a slightly stronger falsetto.

Pay attention to making the shifts in tone as smooth as possible, and definitely give this song a try—you’ll blow your friends away!

EXILE / Road

This is EXILE’s 23rd single, released in February 2007.

To sing songs in the R&B style like EXILE’s, being able to produce and use mixed voice through to falsetto is, arguably, an essential requirement.

Especially for ballads like this one, it’s very important to use middle voice and falsetto effectively to express the song.

I think it’s also an ideal piece for practicing smooth transitions between vocal registers, so it’s a track I particularly recommend aspiring R&B singers to study and master.

JupiterAyaka Hirahara

[Ayaka Hirahara] 'Jupiter' MV Full Ver.

This is Ayaka Hirahara’s debut single, released in December 2003.

The original melody comes from the fourth theme of “Jupiter,” the fourth movement of “The Planets,” an orchestral suite by the British composer Holst, with lyrics added to create this song.

In the UK, the original piece is said to have been adapted as a hymn in the Church of England.

Although the song features a very familiar and accessible melody, it was not originally composed to be sung, so the melodic range is extremely wide and by no means easy to sing.

Despite its high level of vocal difficulty, Hirahara skillfully uses everything from a powerful low chest voice to a clear, airy head voice to deliver a superb performance.

The highest notes may be challenging for most people to hit even in falsetto, but try practicing to produce a clean head voice.

When you sing, be mindful to avoid tensing your throat as much as possible.

Only HumanK

K　『Only Human』

This is the fourth single released in Japan by K, a Korean singer, and it came out in November 2005.

It was also used as the theme song for the TV drama “1 Litre of Tears,” and became a big hit.

K is known for a gentle voice that contains very soft high-order overtones, and that charm is brought out to the fullest in ballads like this one—especially in the final part of the chorus sung in falsetto, which strongly conveys the song’s sense of wistfulness.

When you sing it at karaoke, try to place your voice as softly as possible toward the center of your upper palate—around the nose.

You’ll likely be able to sing with a beautiful falsetto voice.

Sleepless DreamDAZBEE

DAZBEE | 'Sleepless Dream' M/V

DAZBEE is a female singer whose one-of-a-kind vocal timbre has earned her widespread popularity.

Although she is a Korean artist, she is active in Japan and enjoys immense support in the utaite community.

Among her songs, the one I especially recommend for its beautiful falsetto is “Nemuranai Yume” (A Dream That Never Sleeps).

It’s a highly ethereal track, and every falsetto section transitions from chest voice with remarkable smoothness.

If we talk about truly beautiful falsetto, her vocals are the very embodiment of it.
