Before anything else, from atop the roadIsseifubi Sepia
The performance group Ikkyu Fubuki Sepia, which included Sho Aikawa and Toshiro Yanagiba, had a massive hit with their song “Zenryaku, Michi no Ue yori.” Released in 1984 as their debut single, it became a big hit at the time and has continued to be heard in commercials and variety shows over the years.
The shout of “Soiya!” is striking, and the dance is eye-catching; performed as a group, it’s sure to look cool and get everyone hyped.
Coordinate your outfits for a unified, stylish look!

These days, it might be a good idea to perform a song that’s become popular on TikTok.
If it’s a year-end or New Year’s party with lots of young people, almost any song will do, but if the crowd spans a wide range of ages, I recommend “Megumi no Hito.” Many young people know this track from TikTok, but it was originally released in 1983.
It’s well known among middle-aged and older folks too, so everyone can get pumped up together.
A-RA-SHIarashi
Arashi’s 1999 debut single “A・RA・SHI,” famous for its much-discussed see-through outfits, is a classic.
Given Arashi’s universally beloved vibe and the song’s feel, it’s a must-pick for something everyone can enjoy.
Sakurap is insanely cool, too! The choreography is relatively easy among Arashi’s songs, so it’s a good choice even when you don’t have much prep time for year-end or New Year parties.
Just listening to it lifts your spirits—you can bet people will sing along, and even the audience might start dancing.
It’s sure to be a huge crowd-pleaser!
Turning Uparashi
This is a party tune from 2019 that became Arashi’s first digital single.
The cheerful, friendly vibe overflowing with the group’s close-knit chemistry is wonderful, isn’t it? The groove feels so good it makes your body sway as you listen—absolutely top-notch! It seems perfect for deepening bonds, whether you’re with close friends at year-end or New Year parties, or even becoming closer through “Turning Up.” The choreography is officially posted, and it looks even more fun if you can relax and dance along.
Its easygoing, down-to-earth feel is sure to put everyone at ease!
A Man’s Badge of HonorShima Daisuke
Today’s Me Is the Best!! was adapted into a drama in 2018 and became a huge hit, and it was even made into a movie in 2020.
The ending theme, Otoko no Kunshō (A Man’s Medal of Honor), sung and danced to by the main cast in the series, also became a hot topic.
How about preparing school uniforms inspired by delinquents—like the boys’ gakuran and the girls’ sailor uniforms—getting your hair perfectly styled, and giving the dance a try? While the image might be of men singing and dancing, a woman wearing a gakuran and dancing would surely look cool, too! Doesn’t that sound like it would hype things up even more?
The True Face of the StormKudō Shizuka
At company year-end or New Year parties, the age range is likely to be on the older side, so I think it’s good to have this song in your repertoire.
The dance can be done with one hand, so everyone can join in, and people in the older age group will definitely all know it.
Plus, thanks to impression shows and the like, it’s surprisingly well-known among younger generations too.

Silent majorityKeyakizaka46
As the debut single of Keyakizaka46, this song set a record with the highest estimated first-week sales for a debut single by a female artist.
In addition to its high-difficulty formation dance that defies the usual image of idol songs, the no-smile performance offers a distinctive charm unlike conventional idol expressions.
It’s a recommended track for those who want to showcase pure dance quality at year-end or New Year parties.
