Ranking of DOPING PANDA’s Popular Songs [2026]

Merry X’mas Mr. Lonelymandohatsuten8rank/position

Dokatsu Ten / Merry X’mas Mr. Lonelyman
Merry X'mas Mr. Lonelymandohatsuten

The title track of a strictly limited-edition single by Sapporo-born Japanese rock band Dohatsuten.

Released in November 2010, the song vividly depicts Christmas scenes with a lavish string arrangement accented by sleigh bells and castanets.

The lyrics overlay the feelings of a lonely man onto Christmas Night, and the track was created as an answer song to the summer number “Manatsu no Kirigirisu” (The Midsummer Grasshopper).

The protagonist’s changing state across the seasons is expressed through a powerful rock sound.

It’s a song where the band’s signature performance intensity fuses with festive, Christmas-style ornamentation—sure to fire up the floor when played live.

Beer or Diedohatsuten9rank/position

A song dedicated to hardworking people by Dohatsuten, who have many booze-themed tracks like the classic “Sake-Fueled Breakneck Song.” It sings about a day of work, saying all the hardships are for that drink at the end of the day.

Its distinctly Dohatsuten, manly, soulful vibe and power really give you energy! The words “good job” (otsukaresama) carry a certain warmth that puts you at ease—gratitude for others, or kindness to yourself.

It’s a song to toast to the you who gave it your all today and enjoy.

Labor CALLINGdohatsuten10rank/position

Dohatsuten’s 2009 track “Labor CALLING” turns the grueling grind of working every day for a week into song.

Not only Monday through Friday—plenty of people work without a break on weekends too.

The lyrics strike a chord from start to finish for those folks.

You understand you have to do your best for your family and for consumers, but it makes you want to ask, “So where’s my reward?” Dohatsuten sings that feeling perfectly.

And within the song, there’s also a cheer that says, “Even so, let’s somehow keep going together!”
