Supporting Actress Syndromeback number44rank/position

Jyoen Jyoyuushou

The back number classic “Supporting Actress Syndrome,” notable for its downer mood.

While back number has many heartwarming songs, this one is arranged with a somewhat downbeat, decadent atmosphere.

Even so, it’s also an easy song to sing.

There’s a single falsetto part in the chorus, but it’s not very long, so it’s by no means difficult.

However, since the song features many long notes, be sure to use diaphragmatic breathing so you can take in enough air between phrases.

Express train to home for self-reflectionback number45rank/position

Hansei Kyuukou Jitakuiki

back number’s heartbreak song “Reflection Line Express Bound for Home” overflows with a sense of speed.

It’s a breakup song that brilliantly captures their signature lingering attachment, wrapped in a sharp, early-2010s alternative rock melody.

The guitar riff has a slightly Asian Kung-Fu Generation-like feel.

Among back number’s catalog, this piece is particularly easy to sing.

With its generally narrow range and straightforward vocal line, it’s very singable; however, because it features a lot of long sustained notes, it’s recommended for people who are confident in their breath control but not necessarily in their overall vocal technique.

Sundayback number46rank/position

back number – Sunday (full)

The 5th single “Sunday,” used as the theme song for the TV drama Soup Curry starring TEAM NACS—well-known for all being from Hokkaido—features an arrangement highlighting strings and lyrics that warm the heart by depicting the love found in everyday moments.

While the melody generally stays within a narrow range, be mindful of the leaps in pitch in the chorus, where falsetto comes into play.

With its friendly, accessible melody, it’s a song that feels great to sing at karaoke and offers healing through its emotional message.

003back number47rank/position

003

The song “003,” a hidden gem by back number, is beloved by many fans.

While back number often paints vivid scenes, this track stands out with its abstract, slightly fantastical lyrics.

Above all, its biggest charm is the chord progression.

It closely resembles progressions long used in classic Japanese pop, making it feel familiar almost at a genetic level.

As long as you focus on the chorus’s voltage—that surge of intensity—it doesn’t actually demand a very high vocal range, so give it a try.

Lifeback number48rank/position

Life

back number’s classic “Life.” The song features a chord progression that really showcases their signature style, yet it carries a slightly punk rock vibe.

Unlike many back number tracks that call for surprisingly delicate vocals, this one works even if you sing it pretty roughly, so it’s a good choice for those who struggle to produce a clean tone.

There’s a falsetto at the end of the chorus, but since it’s a low falsetto, if you want to emphasize the roughness, you could even try singing that part in chest voice instead.
