Iconic Johnny’s songs from the 2000s: Nostalgic hits that bring back memories (31–40)
I have wings on my backKinKi Kids
“I Have Wings on My Back” was released as KinKi Kids’ 11th single.
It was used as the theme song for the Nippon TV drama “Arata Mukai’s Animal Diary: The Misfortune of Rosinante,” starring Tsuyoshi Domoto.
In the final episode of the drama, lines of dialogue incorporated the song’s lyrics.
Imitation RainSixTONES
SixTONES’ debut song, marking their official debut in 2020.
They’re a new-generation Johnny’s idol group that had been active since 2015.
What’s refreshing isn’t just their years of activity—their music also incorporates distinctly modern sounds.
They’re a group to keep an eye on.
NYCNYCboys
NYCboys was a limited-time unit formed by Nakayama Yuma w/B.I.Shadow, Ryosuke Yamada, and Yuri Chinen.
“NYC” is included on the single “Akuma na Koi/NYC,” and it served as the image song for Fuji TV’s coverage of the Women’s Volleyball World Grand Prix 2009.
Headlong MarchKanjani∞
Formed in 2002, Kanjani Eight (Kanjani∞) is the second group from the Kansai region within Johnny’s, following KinKi Kids.
Their song “Gamushara Koshinkyoku” was used as the theme song for the TV drama Hell Teacher Nūbē, starring member Ryuhei Maruyama.
It’s an upbeat, quintessentially Kanjani∞ track that captures Kansai’s lively vibe and humor-filled banter.
A recommended song to listen to when you need a boost of energy.
VenusTakkī & Tsubasa
This is “Venus,” the sixth single by Tackey & Tsubasa, who began activities in 2002 and announced their disbandment in 2018.
It’s a memorable track featuring the duo’s dance set to a lively rhythm, and it also includes versions in four languages.
With its upbeat melody and choreography, it’s a great pick for karaoke or event entertainment.
It’s a shame we can no longer see the two perform together, especially since after announcing the disbandment, Hideaki Takizawa also announced his retirement from show business.
