Love’s Partner, Heart’s CupidONE OK ROCK
The piece “Koi no Aibou Kokoro no Cupid,” included on the 2008 album Emotion Effect.
While ONE OK ROCK is generally known for songs with a wide vocal range, this track is different.
Though on the higher side at mid2 A# to hi C, it’s built within a somewhat narrower range, and the hi C appears only once in the final chorus.
Since the main high notes center around hi A#, it’s best to set your key with that pitch as the anchor.
Consider adding it to your repertoire.
