音楽番組の嵐: Arashi in music programs

Hello my fellows arashians. As you already know I had a condition, I’m madly arashian. The two past things I posted here I reflect about the sales and PV of our boys (for me would be forever my boys, I’m ten years younger though.)

Here, I done a nice chart about all (I least I tried to find all) songs that Arashi performed live in music shows.

That means:

• Stage report doesn’t count




• Songs like “carnival night” in MS during blast in Miyagi doesn’t count




• I don’t count covers




• Have to be as least 1 minute.

That could be useful for 3 reason

• If you like as me find data about them




• If you looove a song and want to have all performances.

…..The third one is the reason for my next post…

If some data is missing I highly appreciate commentaries and all type of feedback.

A brief information about some music shows.

🌷(MS) Music Station holds the top on arashi performances. The program started in 1986 and still ongoing on tv asahi.

🌷(SC) Shounen club is the Jr program on nhk.

🌷(JDC) Johnny’s countdown. Begun on 1997 between J-friends as part of the fundraising for Kobe board of education.

🌷(FNS) Fuji music festival begun in 1974 as a contest. The last grand prix was given in 1990. Has the traditional edition in the end of the year and other more in spring and summer.

🌷The music day: Begun in 2013 as part of “best artist” production in mid summer for the Tohoku earthquake relief. (the performances of Arashi began in 2013 and the songs before that year were part of medley. I can’t count the special performances when they cover their own songs on ans)

🌷Best artist: Began in 2001 as a selection from the audience. Then in 2009, the program was revamp and the medley were composed directly by artists. Sho serves as MC since 2009.

🌷Music Lovers:

🌷(Heyx3) Hey Hey Hey

🌷UTABAN

🌷VSA and ANS: After 2013 mostly of songs are presented in Arashi regular shows.

EDIT: SOME DATA IS STILL PROCESING BUT I HAVE IT IN DRAFTS SINCE DECEMBER. DUE ARASHI HIATUS I THINK I HAVE TO POST IT IN THE STATE THERE ARE.

嵐のクラシック曲: Arashi classic songs

Is really nice to know which are the “Arashi best”

I was influenced by Kinki “the best” album and “25 years” of SMAP. I wanted to know what about Arashi songs and their upcoming 20th anniversary.

How I did the count of the tour? It wasn’t easy at all. First of all  I only took the DVD released ones, because it's easy to have reliable source of the setlist. And the second point is I didn’t took the “special concerts”

• AAA




• 5x10




• ARAFES 2012




• ARAFES 2013




• BLAST IN MIYAGI




• BLAST IN HAWAII




• JAPONISM IN ARENA

These concerts are specials, and I try to count the songs of annual tours specially the encore part.

If you want a precise account of every song Arashi released and the live performance check the wonderful spreadsheet of projectpaprika.

The second part I based on my own previous post of “arashi in music programs” and “sales post”.

Johnny’s Countdown is the new year concert, but since 1997 is aired on Fuji Tv and other regionals stations. There’s a JC part isn't’ aired before 11PM and some CM time too, for this particular chart I only care about the aired content.

Arashi have almost 400 songs, wow!. Like all the fans I have a couple of favourites, not all 400 songs. They are just 10 songs really special for me … between them one never been performed live. 😢

For me is interesting know the sales isn’t related to the songs they chose for TV or concerts. Also, as far as I know (because I can’t find a reliable data about that *help me*) the songs more performed aren’t related with fans’ choice (like they did in arafes).

So, which are the songs more performed in TV? *drums*

I’m sorry but I can’t do fancy graphics about it, If someone wants to It will be really helpful. Of course statistics aren't exact, but can give us some references.

See, sometimes things are a little different of what we expected.

I know there are songs more promoted by the Agency than others. But, I like to think there are songs specials for them too. As an Aiba fan I can figure out what are those, I would like all of them would be more open about music taste.

EDIT: This post was in drafts since november, but It's takes so long to find the right data and some beautiful images. Now based on the Arashi Hiatus I will posted just like it was in drafts without the nice and beautiful images. Sorry..
