The third windNogizaka 46

“The Third Wind” is a track included on Nogizaka46’s 17th single, “Influencer.” For the third-generation members, who joined starting with this 17th single, this was their first music video.
It’s a much-anticipated song that suggests the third gen will bring a fresh new breeze.

A refreshing, lyrical song that portrays the faint stirrings of a girl’s first love as she walks alongside the railway tracks.
Included on Nogizaka46’s single “Navel Orange,” released in March 2025, this track drew attention as 4th-generation member Yuna Shibata served as the under-center for the first time.
The lyrics poetically capture a page of youth and its wavering emotions in a way that’s easy to relate to.
It’s a song that especially resonates when you find yourself mulling over love.
Our GoodbyeNogizaka 46

Many of you probably remember this single as the one released when Manatsu Akimoto graduated.
Featured on the 32nd single, “Hito wa Yume o Nido Miru,” released in 2023, this song portrays a bittersweet farewell just as its title suggests.
The more you listen, the more it pierces your heart and brings you to tears.
Perhaps you, too, have said goodbye to someone dear while holding on to feelings like these.
Its relatively modest vocal range makes it easy to sing, which may be one reason it’s so beloved.
The reason I’m hereNogizaka 46

It’s a song by the Under Members with two music videos: a dance version, and another that simply shows the members continuously eating.
The adorable MV that makes you hungry just by watching is a must-see.
House!Nogizaka 46

When we perform this song live, we’re busy with all the call-and-response.
I feel like we just keep saying “I love you” over and over.
For this song, the members leave the front stage and spread out across the venue every time, so it might be a great chance to see members up close that you don’t usually get to see.

Courage in the left chestNogizaka 46

When I listen to this song, I can’t be the only one who vividly recalls footage from their early debut days.
That’s how often it used to be played on TV shows and the like back then.
It’s an idol song I recommend, featuring a dance where all the members line up in a single row and perform together.

This music video was filmed at the Ura Desert on Izu Ōshima in Tokyo.
As it happens, I’ve actually been there, so when the MV was released, I felt strangely happy.
Everyone’s faces still look so young and adorable.
