Cool Songs That Are Impressive When Sung by Men (31–40)
BetelgeuseYuri
Yuri’s “Betelgeuse” was practiced by a lot of my students, regardless of gender.
The more lessons I gave on it, the more I thought, “This song is tough,” so it’s perfect for those confident in their vocal skills! The overall range is D3–D5, making it a higher-key song.
The tricky parts are definitely the chorus and the C section.
Once you start singing, there’s no rest, no room to breathe, and many people struggle with switching to falsetto like Yuri does.
Most of Yuri’s songs don’t offer breaks once you begin, so the key is balancing how much volume to use—what percentage of your full power you’re singing with.
As for breath placement, if you hold out every note, you’ll lose track of where to breathe, so try cutting off phrase endings to create small gaps.
Don’t forget to take a breath in those spots! If you want to switch to falsetto, relax and let the sound float upward lightly—this naturally transitions into falsetto, so give it a try!
CITRUSDa-iCE
Da-iCE’s “CITRUS” shot to fame as a high-tone song! I bet many of you, regardless of gender, have tried singing it.
The overall range of the song is F3–D5, which makes it a more comfortable key for women.
Da-iCE singing in such a high register is something many men look up to! The verses (A and B sections) sit in a relatively calm range, but the tricky part is how the chorus suddenly jumps up into the high notes.
When you’re hitting tones this high, if you can’t switch cleanly into head voice, you’ll strain your throat.
Keep the resonance focused in your head at all times—doing so naturally lifts your facial muscles, so don’t forget to stay mindful of that! You’ll also need explosive power, so project your voice as if you’re aiming far into the distance.
The final chorus modulates and goes even higher, so it’s okay to sing out more than you think you need!
Cool songs recommended for men to sing (41–50)
force majeureVaundy
This track was released as a digital-only single on January 22, 2020, and it gives the impression of “Only Vaundy could sing this!” I think you can broadly divide the song into two parts: the calmer first half and the latter half where the high notes really shine.
The range is very wide too, from A#2 to C5.
In the rap section of the first half, that relaxed feel is key.
Sing it coolly, but make sure your words are clear so it doesn’t turn into a mumble.
For the high notes starting from the chorus in the second half, lift your facial muscles to get ready, then project your voice as if aiming far into the distance! Since the high notes keep coming, that burst of energy—sheer momentum—is crucial.
When you nail this part, it feels amazing for both the singer and the listener! Vaundy has many challenging songs, so they’re really rewarding to practice.
Definitely give it a try!
Kaikai KitanEVE
This song was pre-released on October 3, 2020, and serves as the opening theme for the first season of the TV anime Jujutsu Kaisen.
I think many people often sing Eve’s songs, but all of them have a very wide vocal range, don’t they? By the way, Kaikai Kitan spans from F2 to D5, which made me think, “Can you really sing that low?”—I was surprised too.
It’s a song that’s challenging in the low notes of the A section and the high notes of the chorus.
In the A section, try to let the voice come out slowly from the vocal folds and avoid making it too muffled.
From the B section, it starts to sound more song-like with higher notes, but if you push too hard, your voice will collapse.
Aim to project your falsetto strongly and focus on explosiveness! The chorus is also demanding in terms of breathing, so it might be good to decide in advance where you’ll take breaths.
For songs where breathing is tricky like this, instead of singing everything at 100%, it helps to pace yourself and take small, solid breaths in the brief moments you have!
Bling‑Bang‑Bang‑BornCreepy Nuts
In 2024, “Bling‑Bang‑Bang‑Born” topped Billboard JAPAN’s streaming chart and went explosively viral on TikTok—plenty of people must have sung it at karaoke! Since it’s a rap track, rhythm and lung capacity matter more than vocal prowess.
The tempo is fast—ultra‑fast rap—so groove and momentum are crucial; I think the key is whether you can lock into the rhythm.
First, memorize the lyrics well so you can really hit the beat when you sing.
If you let the words slide when you pronounce them, it becomes unclear what you’re saying, so pay attention to the vowels and articulate the beginnings of words clearly.
Rather than forcing each word, try to place each phrase on the melody—start by learning the melody, even just by humming!
hundreds of millions of light-yearsOmoinotake
It’s the theme song for TBS’s Tuesday drama “Eye Love You,” and it really felt like a huge hit in 2024! There aren’t many songs that keep the high notes going like this one.
I had lots of students who tried “Ikuoku Kounen,” and even those good at high notes really struggled to sing the whole thing.
Compared to other Omoinotake songs, the higher range is indeed broader, with an overall range of D3 to F#5.
There’s a lot to focus on—core engagement, support, breath usage, quick responsiveness, resonance placement, and more—but if you push with chest voice from the start, you’ll definitely wreck your throat.
It might be better to first practice singing it in head voice.
In fact, head voice uses more air, so once you do it correctly, it can be quite tiring.
I also recommend humming so that you feel vibrations in your brow and head the whole time!
Cool songs recommended for women to sing (41–50)
Female artists are singing cool songs too!
When we think of the word “cool,” it’s often assumed to be a compliment for men, but there are tons of songs by female artists that are super cool to sing, too! From powerful vocals and husky tones to whispery voices—there are tracks with all kinds of expressive styles, from upbeat rock to enchanting ballads. I’ll introduce songs that showcase these魅力. If you’re a skilled female singer, why not challenge yourself with songs that combine beauty and coolness, letting your vocal ability shine—not just your cuteness?

Trace that dreamNEW!YOASOBI
Ano Yume wo Nazotte has a very wide vocal range.
It’s written in a range from D#3 to E5, with the low notes extending more than in other YOASOBI songs.
Speaking of YOASOBI, you probably think of especially high choruses! They’re a perfect fit for this theme.
The A melody stays in the low range, but even there, keep your throat open and let your breath flow.
Making a surprised face helps open the throat—try to maintain that state as you head into the chorus.
In the chorus, you’ll encounter long sustained notes, so engage your lower abdomen to keep your body steady and send your voice straight out with confidence.
That way, your breath will flow well and you can sing smoothly without your voice catching.
Give it lots of tries!
