Kanjani Eight – I Won’t Leave You Alone [Official Music Video]

“Hitori ni Shinai yo” sung by Kanjani∞ is a supportive song that reaches out to people who find daily life hard.

Released as a single in June 2021, it was written as the theme song for the TV Asahi drama “Kotaro Lives Alone.” The lively piano and the rhythm flowing in the background make it a stylish track.

Rather than saying “You’re not alone,” the lyric “I won’t leave you alone” extends a hand as if it were a personal promise, making it a truly heartwarming anthem.

It’s a song I especially want children who are struggling to hear!

[everysing] A song that lifts your spirits

Kanjani Eight’s “Genki ga Deru SONG” is the ultimate love song, filled with words we want even those who’ve had a fight with their partner to hear.

The opening lyrics in particular are deeply moving, carrying the message: “When hardships arise, the two of us will overcome them; and when we run into hardships again, we’ll overcome them again.

That’s how it goes, over and over!” Because you truly care about each other, you’re bound to clash at times—but it makes you want to be in a relationship where, without forgetting those feelings, you can keep overcoming difficulties together again and again.
