Kanjani Eight’s “Genki ga Deru SONG” is the ultimate love song, filled with words we want even those who’ve had a fight with their partner to hear.

The opening lyrics in particular are deeply moving, carrying the message: “When hardships arise, the two of us will overcome them; and when we run into hardships again, we’ll overcome them again.

That’s how it goes, over and over!” Because you truly care about each other, you’re bound to clash at times—but it makes you want to be in a relationship where, without forgetting those feelings, you can keep overcoming difficulties together again and again.

A powerful cheering song by Kanjani Eight that portrays people who keep striving toward their goals out of the spotlight.

It was chosen as the theme song for Fuji TV’s coverage of the Tokyo 2020 Olympics and has continued to be used frequently on sports programs across the Fuji TV network.

The song depicts both offering words of encouragement that empathize with the feelings of athletes and rallying together with spectators through shared excitement, making it a track that stirs the heart no matter which perspective you listen from.

The song Kanjani Eight created as the theme for the drama “Ore no Hanashi wa Nagai” is “Tomo yo” (“My Friends”).

As the title suggests, its standout feature is lyrics that speak directly to friends.

The words convey the beauty of life and offer guidance on how to get through tough times.

It’s great not only to sing it for friends, but also for current students and teachers.

The harmonies are a big part of the song’s appeal, so I hope you’ll give those a try as well.

The theme song chosen for TBS’s soccer broadcast program “TBS Football 2014 Summer” in 2014 was “RAGE,” performed by Kanjani Eight, the group to which Shingo Murakami—the show’s MC—belongs.

The track is included on their seventh album, “Kanjanism,” released in 2014, which topped the Oricon album chart at No.

Its up-tempo, driving sound and passionate lyrics make it a perfect match for the excitement of the World Cup.

Yet another idol group from Johnny & Associates has made it into the rankings.

This group has now become the second most popular after Arashi, and its members are active on variety shows and the like.

It’s unfortunate that the only videos of this song available were karaoke or covers.

Since it’s a popular song, I was curious about the original.
