The Checkers’ Most Popular Songs Ranking [2026] (31–40)
TOKYO CONNECTIONChekkāzu36rank/position
Around this period, it seems The Checkers started having more dance-beat-style songs, right? This track, too, has a breezy 16-beat and comes together as a stylish dance tune.
The light alto sax phrases and the guitar’s cutting are really cool.
Weekend AdventureChekkāzu37rank/position
This is another early Checkers number that was released as a B-side, and it’s got really good taste.
As expected, Naoyuki’s sax is an indispensable sound in Checkers songs.
The lyrics, taken as a whole, are fairly commonplace, but when you listen to certain lines, the unique word choices make you grin without thinking.
Welcome to the crazy paradiseChekkāzu38rank/position
For me personally, this is a Checkers song I didn’t know until recently.
I happened to find it on YouTube, and the impact of the title caught my attention, so I gave it a listen.
It has a cute, straightforward melody without any odd quirks, and it feels good to listen to.
The lyrics also bring out just the right amount of cuteness.
Heartbreak for JuliaChekkāzu39rank/position
Although this song has the minor-key melody typical of early The Checkers, its brisk eight-beat rhythm makes it stick in your head.
The snare drum’s crisp snap and the saxophone’s lines are used to full effect, and the lyrics show great taste as well.
Checkers’ ChristmasChekkāzu40rank/position
This is a Christmas song by The Checkers, a rock band from Fukuoka Prefecture.
The sound of sleigh bells ringing throughout evokes an image of snow falling over the town.
It has been said that the song was composed with John Lennon’s “Happy Xmas (War Is Over)” in mind, and its similarly relaxed atmosphere conveys a sense of warmth.
Though it’s a gentle ballad, it carries a happy vibe that brings to mind someone smiling as they wish for their loved one’s happiness.

Checkers MedleyChekkāzu41rank/position
This is a medley by a popular seven-member male pop band.
Back then, they were topping the charts as idols, but as an idol group capable of creating their own original songs, they spread their unique appeal nationwide.
Every track is full of catchy music that will get you moving.
Lonely NatalieChekkāzu42rank/position
This song was also included as a B-side, but it’s a relatively well-known early number by The Checkers.
I seem to remember it being used in a commercial—maybe for chocolate or something.
As expected, The Checkers’ lyrics are free of snark and really pleasant to listen to.
I can see why they have so many female fans.
