Back Number's most popular song

Latest comment: 1 month ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Your article states, "The group's biggest hit is "Christmas Song", which peaked at number-one for three weeks on the Japan Hot 100 chart, and was later certified million by the Recording Industry Association of Japan". However, as of 5:00 p.m. JTS or July 1, 2026, Back Number's most-viewed song on Youtube is "Suiheisen(水平線)", with over 300 million views, while "Christmas Song" has approximately 160 million views. Furthermore, as of 5:03 p.m. JTS on July 1, 2026, "Suiheisen(水平線)" is ranked No,49 on the Japan Billboard chart. Therefore, basted on its current popularity and view count, "Suiheisen(水平線)" is now a bigger hit than "Christmas Song". So, sould we change it on the main article?
