While bewildered / Arashi

This is the 10th single, a song written as the theme for “Yoi Ko no Mikata: Shinmai Hoikushi Monogatari,” starring Sakurai.

Written and composed by Shikao Suga, this is the ending theme for the film “Honey and Clover,” in which member Sho Sakurai stars.

With lyrics and a melody that evoke youthful memories, it’s a song that also has many music box covers.

It’s highly recommended for solo performances on piano or guitar, too.

Smilearashi

Arashi “Smile” (phantom acoustic version)

It’s the coupling track included on the regular edition of the single “truth / Kaze no Mukō e,” released in August 2008.

Since it was used as the CM song for House Foods’ “Tongari Corn,” featuring all the members, many of you might find it familiar.

With a summery, refreshing melody and a light, upbeat rhythm, just listening to it naturally brings a smile to your face.

There are many five-member unison parts that make it easy to remember, and the vocal range is comfortable, so it’s perfect for livening up the mood at karaoke.

It’s also a beloved hidden gem among fans, so why not pick it when you need a boost of energy?

Typhoon Generationarashi

ARASHI – Typhoon Generation [Official Music Video]

This single, released in July 2000, was used as the image song for the event “Odaiba Dot Com!” and as the CM song for Bourbon’s “Petit Series.” The staging that begins with a spoken line by Kazunari Ninomiya is memorable, and many fans were likely captivated by the poignant monologue at the start.

The song’s structure is interesting, shifting from a gentle ballad feel in the first half to an up-tempo groove toward the end.

The vocal range is comfortably manageable, and the slower tempo in the first half makes it easy to sing calmly.

How about riding the rhythm in the rap part to hype up the crowd?

Callingarashi

Calling / Arashi — Tried playing it on guitar

This song is packed with Arashi’s powerful message.

With a driving, exhilarating melody, it sings about the importance of believing in yourself and moving forward.

Released in March 2013 as the theme song for the drama “Last Hope” starring Masaki Aiba, it sold approximately 756,000 copies in its first week and topped the Oricon weekly singles chart.

This track gives you the courage to face difficulties.

It’s the kind of song that will fill you with energy on a drive.

Perfect for moments when you feel anxious before a challenge or need to fire yourself up.

A solo song by Kazunari Ninomiya included on the limited first edition of Arashi’s 2007 album “Time.” He wrote the lyrics himself.

Unlike the other members, he often expresses the music directly—performing it live as a piano-and-vocal piece and even composing other solo tracks.

This gentle ballad perfectly matches his image and has been highly praised among fans.

Love Rainbowarashi

Lφve Rainbow (Cover ver.)

Let’s try singing “Love Rainbow,” the Arashi song used as the theme for the drama Natsu no Koi wa Nijiiro ni Kagayaku, starring Jun Matsumoto! The tempo is a bit fast, but the melody is easy to remember and the lyrics aren’t too packed, so it’s easy to sing.

If it’s tough to sing the call-and-response parts by yourself, it’s perfectly fine to sing just one side on purpose.

There’s a high note in the middle of the chorus, so men should practice hitting it cleanly in falsetto.
