Johnny's WEST's masterpieces and popular songs
Here are some songs by Johnny’s WEST, an idol group under Johnny & Associates that has been active since 2014.
As their name suggests, Johnny’s WEST is made up of members from Kansai Johnny’s Jr.
They are the first group in ten years to carry on the Kansai spirit since Kanjani Eight, who have gone on to become a nationwide sensation.
Originally, the group was supposed to debut with the current seven members, but just a few hours before their unveiling at the Johnny’s Countdown Live at the end of 2013, they were suddenly told they would debut as four.
They went on to perform in that day’s show as planned, but believing that the other three members’ strength was essential to aim for a nationally popular group, they later negotiated with the agency, and their debut as the current seven-member lineup was realized.
The performances of Johnny’s WEST, formed with such strong determination, truly resonate with the heart.
Please give a listen even to the songs you don’t know yet.

The song used in Kintetsu Real Estate’s Abeno Harukas commercial, “It Starts Moving! It Shines! Abeno Harukas,” featuring the members of Johnny’s WEST themselves, is “Harukanare.” The commercial is captivating, showcasing their dynamic dance and a production that captures the members’ beaming smiles as they tour inside Abeno Harukas.
Be sure to listen for their characteristically energetic sound and lyrics that evoke the majestic figure of Abeno Harukas reaching toward the sky! Even those who haven’t visited Abeno Harukas yet might find themselves wanting to go!
I don’t know though.Janīzu WEST
It’s a quirky song that captures the charm of Osaka in true Johnny’s WEST style.
Included on their 2022 album “Mixed Juice,” the track spotlights the Kansai phrase “shiran kedo” (“I don’t know though” / “just saying”), and once you hear it, it won’t leave your head.
The Osaka-flavored communication and lyrics—laced with that phrase throughout—are surreal in the best way, while the track and their performance are so cool they’ll give you chills.
The slick rap and strong vocals are also must-hear.
It’s funny yet cool—enjoy that gap as you listen!

It makes you think, “So Johnny’s sing songs like this.” You can even learn something from it—thanks to it, I memorized a bit of pi beyond 3.14.
It has a rap-like feel, so the lyrics might seem hard to memorize at first, but once you learn them, it’s fun to sing.

A heartwarming piece I’d like to introduce is “Shiawase no Hana.” It’s a song by the idol group Johnny’s WEST, with lyrics and composition by Takashi Yamaguchi of Sambomaster, resulting in a classic rock sound.
The lyrics convey the message: “Precisely because everyday life can be tough, let’s keep smiling and live joyfully.” The arrangement highlights each member’s unique voice, which might help you discover a new side to the group.
Very happyJanīzu WEST
For anyone who wants to send an upbeat, feel-good song, “Bari Hapi” is highly recommended! Released in 2015 as a single by Johnny’s WEST, this popular track even hit No.
1 on the Oricon charts.
If you’re thinking of gathering friends to throw a birthday party for a friend or your partner, be sure to give it a listen! Just like the lyrics say, if everyone holds hands around the guest of honor and sings this song together, it’s sure to become a blissful, unforgettable day.
It’s a track that lively-music lovers will definitely appreciate!
