Like J- friends project this time all groups from Johnny's makes a charity song for the covid pandemic.
Friends project was formed for the board of schools of Kobe fundraising after the earthquake of 1995. J-FRIENDS was a special unit made up of Tokio, V6, and KinKi Kids. Until their disbandment in 2003 they were able to release 6 singles (Ashita ga Kikoeru /Children's Holiday, People Of The World, Next 100 Years, I WILL GET THERE, ALWAYS (A SONG FOR LOVE), Love Me All Over ) and held some charity concerts and events. In the end they were able to donate 874.278.322 Yen. Between the greatest composers fo this unit were Michael Jackson and Jon Bon Jovi.
This time project is shorter than the previous one (1998-2003) and only includes one song. The cd will be aviable in August with two tracks smile and wash your hands. The dvd will contein the making of the song.

Ooh-ooh, oh
昨日の暴風雨でゴミが散乱していて
駅前の通りにも爪痕残している
でも午後には 片付くだろう
またいつもと同じようにさ
重なった痛みに心が荒んだって
強ばった表情もやがて綻んでいく
君らしくて あったかくて
またいつかと同じようにさ
泣いてたことなんか
忘れるくらいの smile, smile
けりをつけなくちゃね
その悲しみに
明日の今頃は
陽気な歌でも歌っていようよ
そう all you need
Is only smile
ファッション誌の1ページに印をつけて
何度も開いては閉じてを繰り返している
本当は今 何が欲しくて
必要なものは何なのかを
誰かに憧れて
身に纏うだけの style, style
本当は偽物とわかってて
追い回さなくても
君を必要とする人がいる
You don't need
It's just a style
泣いてたことなんか
忘れるくらいの smile, smile
けりをつけなくちゃね
その悲しみに
明日の今頃は
陽気な歌でも歌っていようよ
そう all you need
Is only smile (all you need is only smile )
誰かに憧れて
身に纏うだけの style, style
本当は偽物とわかってて (all you need is only smile )
だけど忘れないで
君の笑顔に逢える
それだけで生きていける
僕がいる
そう all you need
Is only smile

Ooh-ooh, oh
The storm was scattered yesterday due to the rainstorm
There are also scratches left on the street in front of the station
But in the afternoon
See you as always
My heart was rough because of the overlapping pains
A strong expression will eventually collapse
Warm like you
See you someday
I was crying
I forget about smile, smile
I have to take a kick
In that sadness
Tomorrow at this time
Let's sing a cheerful song
So all you need
Is only smile
Mark one page in a fashion magazine
Open and close many times
What do you really want now
What you need
Longing for someone
Style, style just to wear
I knew it was a fake
Without chasing after
There are people who need you
You don't need
It's just a style
I was crying
I forget about smile, smile
I have to take a kick
In that sadness
Tomorrow at this time
Let's sing a cheerful song
So all you need
Is only smile (all you need is only smile)
Longing for someone
Style, style just to wear
I knew it was a fake (all you need is only smile)
But don't forget
I can meet your smile
I can live alone
I am
So all you need
Is only smile
