back number – Takane no Hanako-san (full)

Among back number’s songs, the massive hit is “Takane no Hanako-san.” The overall vocal range spans E3 to D5, which is fairly wide, but the melody is clearly divided into sections with distinct ranges, making it easier to switch between parts while singing.

Also, the tempo is surprisingly fast, so it’s best to lean forward a bit and sing proactively so you don’t get left behind.

In particular, the latter half has many sections where you’re singing continuously, so the key is to use your body to keep a steady rhythm as you sing.

In the quieter chorus section in the middle, using a gentle tone will let your voice carry and make it easier to sing.
