trutharashi
Arashi is a five-member idol group that debuted in 1999 and went on to become national stars.
While each member has been remarkably active in various fields, there’s a different kind of charm when the five of them perform as idols together.
Their 2008 release “truth” is a track that puts their coolness front and center.
It also drew attention as the theme song for the drama Maou, starring Satoshi Ohno.
The song features inventive touches that enhance its cool appeal, such as layering different lyrics sung simultaneously.
You can really feel the group’s high level of skill—not only with energetic songs, but also in the way they master serious tracks.
DarlingV6
V6 is a six-member group that debuted in 1995.
Watching their variety show appearances and interviews warms the heart with their steady, well-balanced banter among the six.
Of course, they also entertain audiences with their music.
Darling, which was used as the theme song for the drama “You’re My Pet,” has a catchy chorus that makes you want to hum along without thinking.
The tempo has a calm feel that doesn’t come across as intense.
It’s a number that fits perfectly with the six-member vibe—something that only V6 can truly pull off.
Work hard, play hard.NYC
This is the second single from the three-member male group NYC.
Their average age is 16.9.
NYC’s hallmark at the time was their cool-yet-cute vibe.
Being a trio gives them a tight cohesion, while each member’s individuality still shines through.
The lyrics are tailored to the group as well.
The limited-edition DVD included a video clip filmed in New York, in a nod to the “NY” in their name.
careJin Akanishi
“care” is a solo number by Jin Akanishi, who debuted as a member of KAT-TUN in 2006, left the group in 2014, and also departed from the agency.
The song was included as Akanishi’s solo track on KAT-TUN’s album “Break the Records -by you & for you-,” released while he was still active with the group.
He also wrote the lyrics for the song himself.
He currently continues his music career as a solo artist and actively performs live tours.
ColorfulYamashita Tomohisa
“Colorful” is a track with lyrics written by Tomohisa Yamashita himself.
It was included as the B-side to Shuji to Akira’s song “Seishun Amigo,” the unit formed by Kazuya Kamenashi of KAT-TUN and Yamashita.
The song was also used as an insert song in the drama “Dragon Zakura,” starring Hiroshi Abe, in which Yamashita appeared.
The lyrics were written at the request of TBS, the producer of the drama, with inspiration drawn from the role he played in the series.
D.D.Snow Man
Snow Man, who debuted in 2020, are known for their acrobatics, and their tightly synchronized performances are breathtaking.
They’re a group whose future growth is exciting to watch.
This time, we’re featuring their debut track, “D.D.” The extensive use of electronic sounds and English lyrics, among other elements, come together to create an overflowing coolness—it’s enough to leave you breathless.
The exhilarating drive of the chorus is refreshing; you can’t help but get absorbed.
It’s packed with the charms of a male idol group and is a song anyone can enjoy.
