175R Popular Songs Ranking [2026] (1–10)
If I sing to the sky175R1rank/position
For 175R, the band that made its name known nationwide from Fukuoka, this second major single—selected as a J-PHONE commercial song—was a pivotal track that put them on the map.
Released in April 2003, it debuted at No.
1 on the Oricon Weekly Chart, following in the footsteps of its predecessor.
It ranked 18th on the year-end chart and became a major hit, selling around 350,000 copies.
The lyrics, written for friends back home, likely call to mind those universal moments of parting and setting off on a new journey.
From start to finish, the driving band sound and SHOGO’s raw, straightforward vocals embody the energy of youth, making it a quintessential example of early-2000s youth punk.
It’s a timeless anthem that cheers on everyone running toward their dreams.
Sunset Falsetto175R2rank/position
A 2004 song by 175R that sings about the end of youth and a new departure.
It was used as the ending theme for TV Asahi’s Friday Night Drama “Ah! Detective Agency.” The single also includes a live recording from Hibiya Open-Air Concert Hall.
The lyrics, which portray the anxieties and hopes of a young person leaving their hometown to chase their dreams, resonate deeply.
It’s a track you’ll want to hear on the night of graduation—looking up at a sky dyed by the sunset, reflecting on memories with friends, and renewing your resolve for the future.
A heartwarming message song that closes a chapter of youth and gives you the courage to open the door to a new life.
Farewell, my lover175R3rank/position
The lyrics, which plaintively and sadly sing, “I’m the one who’s leaving, yet I’m the one at fault,” are set to an up-tempo track.
I think this further heightens the emotional impact.
It’s a cover of Masakazu Sakai’s “Saraba Koibito,” arranged in their own style, and it became a hit among young men.
Happy life175R4rank/position
This is the major-label debut single released on January 16, 2003.
It debuted at No.
1 on the Oricon chart, and along with the second single “Sora ni Utaeba,” it achieved a remarkable feat as a representative anthem of youth punk.
It features a bright, catchy melody and positive lyrics, produced by Masahide Sakuma.
The overall vocal range is D#3 to C5, and the key point is how powerfully you can hit the high notes right at the start.
Also, since the tempo is on the faster side, if you can harness that tempo to build momentum, the high parts in the chorus shouldn’t feel too tough.
In any case, get your whole body into it and have fun!
Sakura175R5rank/position
This is a song included on 175R’s indie-era album “Go! upstart!”, released in 2002.
It carries a straightforward message about looking back on memories with friends and moving forward toward the future, in step with the cherry blossom season—a time of meetings and partings.
The sections with a light, ska-like feel evoke reminiscing about joyful days, while the chorus conveys a powerful sense of heading into the future, clearly communicating its message.
Letter175R6rank/position
A bittersweet yet powerful ballad by 175R, a leading band of the youth-punk scene.
The image of singing a heartfelt message to a precious someone far away, poured into a letter that will never reach them, is truly moving.
Released as a single in November 2003, it’s a re-recorded track from the album “Songs,” which came out in June of the same year.
The single version features fresh arrangements, giving it a deeper, richer finish.
While rooted in melodic hardcore, it stands out for its emotionally expressive melody and lyrics.
It’s the perfect song for when you want to recall nostalgic memories of your youth or the bonds with someone important.
Its memorable lyrics and warm melody will gently resonate with the listener’s heart.
If I sing to the sky175R7rank/position
175R went on hiatus in 2010 but resumed activities in 2016 and has been working energetically since.
This song was used in a J-PHONE commercial, drawing attention even before its single release.
It is said that SHOGO wrote the song with friends from his hometown in mind.
ANNIVERSARY175R8rank/position
A song written to accompany the release of the best-of album “175R BEST ‘ANNIVERSARY 1998-2018,’” produced to commemorate the band’s 20th anniversary.
Its straight-up, coming-of-age lyrics—unchanged since the band’s formation—its exhilarating sense of speed, and a punk sound grounded in musicality honed over time will get your adrenaline pumping.
Universal themes that never go out of style and high-quality, straightforward melodies have the power to resonate not only with listeners of their own generation but also with younger audiences.
It’s a heart-stirring rock tune that’s also recommended as an introduction to 175R.
graffiti175R9rank/position
Also included on their fourth full-length album, 7-SEVEN-, this is their seventh major-label single.
Its arrangement is superb, with memorable, ear-catching guitar arpeggios and a lyrical melody that perfectly matches the graduation-themed lyrics.
The simple song structure and performance highlight the message of the words, naturally prompting listeners to overlay the song with their own memories.
It’s a pleasant number that colors a page of youth everyone can relate to.
Shine, a guide on the path of light175R10rank/position
It’s got that quintessential 175R feel—fast-paced and straight-ahead—but by this point it seems the quality as a pop song has gotten considerably higher.
While it’s shed the brash, youthful vibe of their early days, it’s a solid work that shows the band’s growth.
