SMAP Popular Song Ranking [2026]

SMAP – Mermaid

A song by SMAP featuring a dreamy, enchanting melody line.

The poignant lyrics evoke the feeling of listening to a tale of unrequited love with a mermaid as the protagonist, gently wrapping around the listener’s heart.

You can almost see the glittering surface of the water and hear the quiet sound of waves, and some may find that bittersweet summer memories suddenly resurface.

The track reached many ears as the theme song for the 2007 World Aquatics Championships in Melbourne, and it was first included on the album “super.modern.artistic.performance,” released in September 2008.

It’s the perfect piece for a night when you want to step away from the summer bustle and quietly lose yourself in thought.

Sign language chorus “Sekai ni Hitotsu Dake no Hana” (SMAP)

The 35th single by SMAP, the legendary idol group whose calls for a reunion have never ceased even after their disbandment.

Written by singer-songwriter Noriyuki Makihara, this song became the first work released in the Heisei era to achieve triple million sales.

The original performance is famously striking, and because the beauty of the lyrics can be conveyed directly in sign language, it’s also recommended as a sign language song.

It’s a classic that every Japanese person likely knows, delivering a message—that everyone is special—that gives people courage.

SMAP We Have Tomorrow – 1999 Birdman

This is SMAP’s 19th single, which was also used as the theme song for the TV drama “Jinsei wa Jōjō da” starring Takuya Kimura and Masatoshi Hamada.

The song has a very relaxed tempo and a calm atmosphere, and the lyrics convey a sense of hope for tomorrow.

[Cover] My Half _ SMAP

A maxi single released in 2011.

It has a mature, R&B-style melody, but it sees the person you love as a “part of yourself,” and I felt it sings about the feelings of love from one’s younger days.

They aren’t in a mutual relationship yet; it’s more like quietly nurturing their feelings in their heart.

Thinking of a lover or someone you like as a part of yourself may be a sensation unique to romantic love.

Feelings in your colorSMAP / Sawada Shoko40rank/position

Feelings in your color

Broadcast in 1994, Red Riding Hood Chacha is a TV anime based on a girls’ manga serialized in Ribon.

Its opening theme was SMAP’s Kimi Iro Omoi.

The song is very popular—it was even included in a best-of album selected by SMAP fan votes—but when the anime was released on home video, rights issues arose, so the song was replaced with a cover version sung by Seiko Sawada instead of SMAP.

SMAP - Thank You (Kansha Shite) 🙏

They have already disbanded, but they were a nationally beloved former Johnny’s group that everyone knows.

It might sound odd to say “even though they’re from Johnny’s,” but the leader, Masahiro Nakai, is an outstanding TV show host even to an amateur eye, and I hope he keeps doing his best.

SMAP- A Song For Your Love🎙

This song is included on SMAP’s 15th album, SMAP 016/MIJ, released in 2003.

It opens with SMAP’s lively rap that still makes their disbandment feel all the more regrettable.

While a close listen reveals it to be a love song, it evokes something beyond just romance.
