Youthful AmigoShūji to Akira

A song by the duo Shuuji and Akira, formed by Kazuya Kamenashi of KAT-TUN and Tomohisa Yamashita of NEWS.

Its melody carries a touch of Showa-era pop, so I’d love for people in their 60s to give it a listen.

The lyrics, which sing about the youth of a slightly bad-boy pair, also have a cool vibe.

Paradise GalaxyHikaru GENJI

It’s the biggest hit song by Hikaru Genji, a hugely popular Johnny’s group.

The lyrics and music were written by Ryo Asuka of CHAGE & ASKA.

I’m impressed that he can craft such a pop masterpiece.

Watching their roller-skate performances boosts my energy even more.

I truly hope all seven members will reunite once again.
