Arashi’s Popular Songs: From Massive Hits to Hidden Gems, All Introduced at Once!

Sakura, Bloom!arashi

ARASHI – Sakura Sake [Official Music Video]

This song is famous for having its rap parts written by Sho Sakurai.

It’s an early Arashi work and their 14th single.

The straight 8-beat rock rhythm feels great, and the direct, straightforward singing is very pleasant.

Around 2005, when Sakura Sake was released, Arashi weren’t yet the national superstars they are today, but they had many great songs from that period—why not dig some of them up?

Nobody knowsarashi

ARASHI – Daremo Shiranai [Official Music Video]

A suspicious, somewhat comical melody really sticks in your ears.

This is the theme song for the drama “Shinigami-kun” starring Satoshi Ohno, and it won the Drama Song Award at the 81st The Television Drama Academy Awards.

The chorus’s buildup is awesome.

Labyrinth Love Songarashi

ARASHI – Labyrinth Love Song [Official Music Video]

This song starts off brightly, but the chorus shifts to cooler, edgier lyrics and melody, making it perfect for karaoke.

It was used as the theme song for Sho Sakurai’s drama and film “The After-Dinner Mysteries.” The slightly shadowy melody in the chorus feels spot-on.

Arashi often has a slightly comical vibe, but their mysterious side is fantastic too.
