Kenshi Yonezu – Junk

Kenshi Yonezu’s new song “Garakuta.” Released as the theme song for the film “Last Mile,” it’s also included on his latest album, “LOST CORNER.” This track is one I’d especially love to hear sung by men with higher vocal ranges.

While the A and B sections aren’t particularly high, the chorus features parts where you switch repeatedly between falsetto and chest voice.

It’s a challenging chorus, but it really brings out the appeal of high-tenor voices, so I highly recommend it.

Kenshi Yonezu’s song “BOW AND ARROW,” whose music video featuring Yuzuru Hanyu drew huge attention, also serves as the opening theme for the TV anime Medalist.

The drum’n’bass-inspired track, which creates a sleek, skating-like sense of speed, feels very contemporary, and Yonezu’s superb songwriting really stands out.
