BUMP OF CHICKEN “Nanairo” Performance Music Video

A single by BUMP OF CHICKEN, released digitally on May 18, 2021 and later as a CD single on December 22 of the same year.

It served as the theme song for the NHK morning drama series “Okaeri Mone.” BUMP OF CHICKEN’s vocalist, Mr.

Fujiwara, has an exceptionally transparent tone even when singing in chest voice, which makes it difficult to determine exactly which parts of this song are sung in mixed voice.

In that sense, it may be a fairly advanced choice as a practice piece for mixed voice.

It’s likely that the higher notes in the A section are sung with mixed voice, so try focusing on that area when listening.

It should be easier to tell if you compare those phrases with the similarly high but more powerful chest-voice notes in the chorus.

When you actually sing it yourself, be careful to avoid letting the high notes stick out too prominently.
