Why not? / Who cares? / It’s all good.Janīzu WEST1rank/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!
To You, the PrincipalJanīzu WEST2rank/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.

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!
Ya! Hot! Hot!Janīzu WEST4rank/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.
Ole Ole Carnival!Janīzu WEST5rank/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.
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.

A track from the album “WESTV!” released in December 2018.
With both a sweet and bittersweet ballad feel, it’s a song that makes your heart tighten without you even realizing it.
It conjures up the scene of a winter night tinged with a hint of loneliness.
It’s a piece you’ll want to play while savoring the quiet and poignancy of such a night.
Although the song features many chords and dotted rhythms, take care not to let the performance become too lively.
Sheet music is available for purchase, including printable scores, so give it a try!
BeautifulJanīzu WEST9rank/position
Johnny’s WEST is a seven-member idol group whose members also shine as actors and TV personalities, captivating fans with their distinct Kansai-born personalities.
Their 21st single “Beautiful,” released as part of a triple A-side with “Zettai Zetsumei” and “AS ONE,” was written as the theme song for the TV drama “18-sai, Niizuma, Furin Shimasu,” starring group member Ryusei Fujii.
Its tight, dazzling ensemble, paired with lyrics that evoke uncontrollable feelings, creates a powerful impact.
With its refreshing melody, it’s a stylish number that’s sure to hype up any karaoke session.
I don’t know though.Janīzu WEST10rank/position
It’s a quirky song that captures the charm of Osaka in true Johnny’s WEST style.
Included on their 2022 album “Mixed Juice,” the track spotlights the Kansai phrase “shiran kedo” (“I don’t know though” / “just saying”), and once you hear it, it won’t leave your head.
The Osaka-flavored communication and lyrics—laced with that phrase throughout—are surreal in the best way, while the track and their performance are so cool they’ll give you chills.
The slick rap and strong vocals are also must-hear.
It’s funny yet cool—enjoy that gap as you listen!
