This was the fifth single released during V6’s early years.
It had a very bright, refreshing, and upbeat feel, yet for a Johnny’s song at the time it felt quite artistic, which I really liked.
The chorus is easy to remember, making it a song anyone can sing.

This is the fifth single by Idol Kyoushitsu, an idol group active mainly in Nagoya, released in 2015.

Their adorably idol-like voices give me energy again today.

After all, I’m an idolKoizumi Kyoko
A witty song by Yasushi Akimoto that portrays the ideal and reality of idols with humor! Released in 1985, it was Kyoko Koizumi’s 17th single and was also used as the commercial song for Fuji Photo Film’s Cardia camera.
While presenting a fresh take on how idols were viewed at the time, it skillfully depicts the emotions swaying between the image of a pure, clean-cut idol and a private self.
A gem of a pop tune that brings both laughter and empathy to everyone who loves idols.
