“Happiness” was used as the theme song for the drama Yamada Taro Monogatari, starring Arashi members Kazunari Ninomiya and Sho Sakurai.

It was also featured in a JAL commercial with all the members of Arashi.

With its upbeat sound and encouraging lyrics, it’s one of Arashi’s popular songs—performed three times at the Kouhaku Uta Gassen and, despite its 2007 release, still frequently sung on many music programs today.

A sweet and bittersweet love song that rhythmically captures the flutter and confusion of falling in love.

Lightly singing of pure feelings for the other person, this track was released in June 2024 as an insert song for the TV Asahi drama “Tokyo Tower,” and is also included on Travis Japan’s album “VIIsual.” It’s a song anyone harboring pure romantic feelings won’t be able to help but relate to—perfect for those who want to spend a heart-fluttering moment with bright, pop sounds.

Shout Out Love – Arashi (Full)

Arashi’s song “Ai o Sakebe,” which also became a hot topic as the CM song for Recruit’s “Zexy,” is a wedding tune that makes you want to dance with its bright, upbeat feel—unlike many wedding songs that are more mellow.

It’s a wonderful track you’ll want to dedicate when someone special is getting married.

The tempo is a bit fast, but the melody doesn’t have big pitch jumps, so it should be easy to sing at karaoke.

The lyrics feel like a man speaking directly to the bride, so it’s a song we definitely recommend men try singing.

“Ainokatachi” (“A Lump of Love”) is the B-side track to KinKi Kids’ 13th single “Hey! Minna Genki Kai?” released in 2001.

The lyrics were written by Tsuyoshi Domoto and the music composed by Koichi Domoto, and it was used in a Morinaga “DARS” chocolate commercial.

Despite being a B-side, it earned strong support from fans—as evidenced by its inclusion on the best-of album “39” as the No.

1 fan-voted song—and is cherished as a romantic ballad.

SHAKESMAP

“SHAKE,” released in 1996 and a massive hit, remains a popular song even today.

Listening to it really lifts your spirits, doesn’t it? With its very bright melody and lyrics, it’s often sung by junior Johnny’s groups besides SMAP, especially in medleys.

Let’s dance in a circle (Wasshoi)V6

WA ni Natte Odorō, a bright Latin-style number sung by V6.

Even when sad or difficult things happen, fun times are waiting next.

I imagine many people have been encouraged by this song that lifts your spirits.

It seems it’s often used and danced to at elementary school sports days as well.

The lyrics are very easy to understand, so it’s very popular with small children.

It makes you want to dance along, doesn’t it?
