Funny songs to liven up the thank-you party: absolutely crowd-pleasing gag songs and dance numbers! (51–60)
Milk from the noseKamon Tatsuo
A work that both adults and children can laugh at and enjoy.
Many adults may remember singing it when they were little.
Set to a guitar-and-vocal performance, it comically portrays a man making excuses for his infidelity.
After being included on the January 1992 album “Tenpu no Sainō” (Natural Talent), it was released as a single in April of the same year.
It was also featured on TV Tokyo’s children’s program “Piramekino,” sparking a resurgence in popularity among elementary school students.
For a thank-you party performance, we recommend singing it with exaggerated acting.
It’s sure to have the whole venue roaring with laughter!
Strawberry shortcakeKisaragi Maron-chan
This is Strawberry Shortcake, composed by the popular young comedy trio Jyaradon.
It gained popularity as the song that appears in their sketch featuring Kisaragi Marron-chan, one of Jyaradon’s signature works, and has finally been released as a full track.
The interjected quips by Takenori Nishimoto in the middle are hilarious, so it’s sure to get everyone hyped.
Giving up was the right call.shō chū dai
This is a song performed by the unit Konchūdai, which originated from the variety show “Yobidashi Sensei Tanaka.” It portrays three characters—known among the cast for their particularly low correct-answer rate and their stream of quirky responses—struggling with not being good at studying.
Since not everyone in the group is a professional singer, the vocals are simple, and the choreography is easy to do while singing.
With little complex choreography, it’s a piece where expressing fun with bright smiles and high energy is especially important.
MUSIC VIDEOOkazaki Taiiku
A song that relentlessly sings about all the typical “music video clichés,” and one that really put Taiiku Okazaki’s name on the map.
It’s bursting with a catchy melody, razor-sharp goofiness, and great flair! It’s probably hottest among the elementary and middle school crowd who are into music.

GUTSarashi
This is a famous Arashi song that’s played as a cheer song in many different situations.
It was the theme song for a baseball-themed drama, so it’s especially perfect for thank-you parties for school clubs and sports teams, particularly baseball teams.
Even outside of sports, it’s a powerful, uplifting anthem that energizes any event, so it can be used widely in a variety of settings!
A Man’s Badge of HonorShima Daisuke
It was a well-known song, especially among the middle-aged generation, as a classic oldie, but after it was used in the TV drama adaptation of Hiroyuki Nishimori’s manga “Kyo Kara Ore Wa!!,” it became a popular tune recognized by people of all ages.
It’s a recommended track that both teachers and students can enjoy nostalgically together.
thrillHotei Tomoyasu
This is the song that’s been used as Egashira 2:50’s entrance music on variety shows.
The image is so tied to Egashira that when the song plays on its own, you can’t help but wonder, “Is Egashira about to appear from somewhere?” While it might only be familiar to certain generations, it’s definitely a surefire track to liven up the mood as a fun gag.
