Johnny's WEST Popular Songs Ranking [2026] (1–10)
To You, the PrincipalJanīzu WEST1rank/position
It’s a bright, feel-good love song that lifts your spirits! Johnny’s WEST’s “To You, the Principal” was released in 2018 as their ninth single.
It was chosen as the theme song for the film “Principal: Am I a Heroine Who Is in Love?” starring group member Nozomu Kotaki.
The songwriting and composition were done by HoneyWorks, a creative unit known for producing many love songs.
The lively, sparkling sound and refreshing vocals are a perfect match! Listening to it makes the lingering haze in your heart feel like it’s blown away.
Why not? / Who cares? / It’s all good.Janīzu WEST2rank/position
This is the debut single of the seven-member idol group Johnny’s WEST, formed in Kansai, released on April 23, 2014.
It’s a lively, Kansai-style number with lyrics sprinkled with Kansai dialect that make it a fun listen.
A classic festival song—great for karaoke, or for everyone to sing together at year-end and New Year parties.
Let’s all recreate and enjoy the unique Kansai vibe and performances crafted by these seven distinctive members!

When you feel like you’re about to lose and are ready to give up, I want you to listen to Johnny’s WEST’s “Gyakuten Winner.” Released in 2016, this song was used as the opening theme for the anime Ace Attorney: “Objection! to that ‘Truth’.” It’s easy to get discouraged when you’ve allowed a big score against you or you’re stuck in a desperate pinch, isn’t it? In those moments, turn any crisis into an opportunity and keep fighting with tenacity to the very end—listen to this song, which sings exactly that, and reset your mindset!
Ole Ole Carnival!Janīzu WEST4rank/position
Ole Ole Carnival!, included on Johnny’s WEST’s first album released in 2014, go WEST Yooidon!.
It’s a song with a driving feel that makes you want to shout out call-and-response lines, and it feels great.
The lyrics positively sing about youthful summers, and just listening to it will naturally lift your spirits! It might hit even harder when you listen to it out in nature, like at the beach in summer.
It’s also a great pick for singing at karaoke with a big group.
Ya! Hot! Hot!Janīzu WEST5rank/position
Speaking of summer, it’s all about ice cream! This is “Ya! Hot! Hot!” by Johnny’s WEST, used as the 2017 commercial song for the ice cream classic Baskin-Robbins (31 Ice Cream).
The uptempo track is perfect for summer and just listening to it lifts your spirits.
It’s included on their fourth album, “WESTival,” released in 2018.
Summer DreamerJanīzu WEST6rank/position
Johnny’s WEST, a Kansai-born idol group drawing attention as successors to Kanjani Eight, have been shining lately, with each member active on variety shows and more.
Among their songs, the one perfect for summer is “Summer Dreamer.” It has the feel of a classic summer anthem, but what’s striking is its unexpectedly masculine lyrics.
If you’re a woman who likes straightforward, hard-edged lyricism, this track is irresistible—be sure to check it out.
Flower of HappinessJanīzu WEST7rank/position
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.
