T-BOLAN Popular Songs Ranking [2026]

BOYT-BOLAN21rank/position

Morito Arashi 2016 Demonstration Live “Arashi with COVERS” Ending BOY

“BOY” is a song with lyrics by drummer Kazuyoshi Aoki and music by Arashi Moritomo.

Judging from the lyrics, it seems Aoki had a baby boy; a father figure emerges who feels joy and gratitude and hopes his child will embrace big dreams and hopes.

Moritomo’s signature ballad style breathes life into it, giving rise to a new T-BOLAN track.

It might be a rare parent-and-child song for T-BOLAN.

Baby BlueT-BOLAN22rank/position

I sang T-BOLAN’s “BABY BLUE”~~♪♪

“Baby Blue,” included on their second album BABY BLUE.

As the title suggests, it’s a song that evokes loneliness and melancholy.

With T-BOLAN, every track makes you want to sing it at karaoke—perhaps thanks to Arashi Moritomo’s outstanding vocals and rugged masculinity.

DearT-BOLAN23rank/position

T-BOLAN / Dear dear

It’s a pattern often seen in T-BOLAN’s songs: starting as a slow ballad, then suddenly bringing in a heavy sound at the chorus.

Love and ballads, along with heavy guitar tones, are major hallmarks of T-BOLAN.

Yet every song feels gentle and enveloping, and unlike the sound itself, nothing feels sharp or edgy—you can even sense the warmth of their humanity.

JUST ILLUSIONT-BOLAN24rank/position

T-BOLAN「JUST ILLUSION」MV

“JUST ILLUSION” is T-BOLAN’s third single.

The lyrics were written by actress Saya Takagi, and the song was used as an insert track in the TV Asahi drama “Mayonaka wa Betsu no Kao” (A Different Face at Midnight).

From the lyrics, you get a mysterious atmosphere that suggests it isn’t a typical romance.

The composer is Tetsurō Oda.

I think it’s rare for a T-BOLAN song to have both the lyrics and composition done by people outside the band.

My Life is My WayT-BOLAN25rank/position

T-BOLAN / My life is My way (Vocal, Guitar & Bass Cover) [Includes Off-Vocal Track]

“My Life is My Way” is included on T-BOLAN’s third original album, “SO BAD.” It conveys a powerful message: no one else decides your life, there’s no such thing as living someone else’s life.

Your life is original, so it’s natural to be different from others.

T-BOLAN and all of us are in this together.

SHAKE ITT-BOLAN26rank/position

T-BOLAN SHAKE IT Arashi Moritomo Asobeach ASOBEACH!!! Naminoue Umisora Park January 9, 2017

What does T-BOLAN mean? When you think about it, it’s a curious name, isn’t it? T-BOLAN comes from the British glam rock band T.

Rex, whose vocalist was Marc Bolan.

So it’s T-BOLAN from T.

Rex’s Marc Bolan.

T.

Rex is a hard-hitting rock band, but this is a rock number that feels true to the origin of the band’s name and is different from what they’ve done before.

It’s a rare type of song for T-BOLAN.

SmileT-BOLAN27rank/position

T-BOLAN – Smile

A song with special meaning, created for the fans as the band reached a turning point.

Its message—overcoming hardship and pain, and still facing tomorrow with a smile—is conveyed through Arashi Moritomo’s husky yet warm vocals.

Many listeners may find courage in its unwavering stance of maintaining a forgiving heart and striving to be gentle, no matter the circumstances.

The track was included as an unreleased new song on the best-of album “T-BOLAN FINAL BEST ~GREATEST SONGS & MORE~,” released in December 1999.

It’s a song that offers a gentle push forward when you’re at a crossroads in life or feeling a bit down.

A hidden gem of a power ballad, overshadowed by classics like “Hanashitakunai.”

Words and MindT-BOLAN28rank/position

T-BOLAN / Words and Mind

This is the B-side of the 5th single “Jirettai Ai,” and it’s one of my favorite songs too.

It has that Mori Tomo style and a really cool vibe.

It’s the kind of voice that makes you want to hear “I love you,” isn’t it? I’d love to have love whispered to me in this voice.

He’s one of the few male singers with a truly sexy voice.

Overflowing emotionsT-BOLAN29rank/position

T-BOLAN "Overflowing Emotions" LIVE

This is “Overflowing Emotions,” a track from the second album BABY BLUE.

Watching this live footage makes it clear just how rock this band is—and how good the vocalist is.

They’re a rock band in terms of sound, but the vocals have a power that goes beyond that.

It reminded me why T-BOLAN became so popular.

Rather than telling you with a sulky gaze, I want to see the light.T-BOLAN30rank/position

T-BOLAN / Rather than telling you with a sulky gaze, I want to see the light.

This piece feels like Moritomo Arashi’s heartfelt voice gently illuminating the small hopes hidden in everyday life.

While reflecting on our tendency to think the worst, it portrays a quiet resolve not to look down, but to lift our heads and seek the light.

The song was included as the B-side to the hit single “Wagamama ni Dakae-tanara,” released in November 1993.

While the title track is widely known as the opening theme for the drama “Aishiteru yo!,” this work, despite having no tie-in, has long been cherished by fans as a gem.

When you’re a little worn out by the ordinary days, listening to this song may help you find small joys hidden in familiar scenes.
