Top 10 Best Male Singers with High Voices
Some singers don't just hit the high notes. They live there. Their vocal cords seem to ignore the rules of biology, effortlessly floating into registers most of us only reach when we stub a toe or see a spider.
This list is all about those guys. The ones who can flip into falsetto like it's second nature, belt out sky-high choruses without breaking a sweat, and make you question if a helium balloon was somehow involved in the recording process.
Vote for the ones you think deserve to rule the upper register. Decide which of these high-flying vocalists truly deserves to soar above the rest.

Mitch Grassi
In my opinion, he is the best. He has no backup instruments and just sings with what is close to almost near-perfect pitch, as perfect as one can get.
Mitch's clarity and smoothness in his highest register is what makes him the best. He seamlessly and effortlessly transitions from his chest, to mix, to head, to falsetto voice, to the point where you almost cannot tell. He deserves this.
If you are voting on this list and have not heard Mitch Grassi's voice, stop, go listen, then come back and vote him to number 1. In my opinion, his voice is the greatest voice of all time.
