updated with the 2016 :)
Hisashiburi ne! :D
Sorry, I've been really busy this two months. Ma, actually I've got national holiday, 6 days, haha :p And today is the last day. What I want to write today is about Johnny's medley on The Music Day. I do love it!! I keep re-watching it! :)
To begin with, I love Johnny's new year countdown. I love when they shuffle the group and/or sing another group songs! I love to see their interaction between each others from another groups. But, it's sad that recently the older groups don't join the countdown anymore. Ok, they are on Kohaku though. But, I miss them on the countdown so bad!! and they answer my wish on JCD 2015/2016 haha :p thank you~
This medley on The Music Day at least could cure my missing feeling haha XD Ah, so far, my most favorite is the 2015. They have 10 groups to be shuffled! I wish more next year, haha, it's hard though. Ma, because of the "faction" thing. huuhuu they have less in 2016 :(
The order would follow the 2015 performance, the 2014 and 2016 would just follow the 2015 by the original singer. I mean, I want to, umm, line up (?), who did sing whose song each year. The 2013 which they sang their senpai debut song would be written separately.

The date of each performance, in case you want to search the files :) [2013.07.06], [2014.07.12], [2015.07.04] and [2016.07.02]. I don't know yet if they had the 2012 performance.
Although I've said that my most favorite is 2015, but my most favorite medley ending song performance is 2013. They were singing and dancing together. Some fans said that it was Johhny's 48 haha XD And, by watching the performance, I said, Nino was the center. But, Nino missed a move in the dance :p The 2013 had Oh-chan collaborating with KAT-TUN, a great choice, I think. So far, for me, KAT-TUN is the most powerful group in singing among Johnny's.
The 2014's "highlight" for me is the last shuffle group. It had Sakamoto Masayuki (V6), Ohno Satoshi (Arashi), Koyama Keiichiro (NEWS), Murakami Shingo (Kanjani8), Kamenashi Kazuya (KAT-TUN), Nakajima Yuto (Hey!Say!JUMP). I don't really know Koyama and Yuto, but the others, for me, is the best singer in their group! They had them together!! :D They had Kinki Kids, Tackey&Tsubasa, and the most recent debut group Johnny's WEST joined the 2015. It's rare to watch Tackey&Tsubasa with another groups. So it was really great!
The reason I want to line up the 2014 and 2015 performances so we could say one or two things. There were some people singing the same group song two years in row, Matsu-ni and Yoko → NEWS, KAT-TUN's Nakamaru → Kanjani8, V6's Nagano and Nino → Hey!Say!JUMP, and V6's Okada → Arashi. I wish they would sing another group song next year :)) They had TOKIO's as the ending song two years in row too. And of course, another Johnny's 48, please! XD Ah, Arashi always wore white since 2013. My favorite costumes are Kanjani8's 2014 and Johnny WEST's 2015 :D It's just my opinion, but I saw that some people maybe would not really fit in if they were debut with other groups :p They are just pecfect in where they are belong to now. So yes, Johnny-san must be had been thinking hard before choosing members of a group.
2016, it's less than my expectation~ So my most favorite still be the 2015. They have less group, they add Sexy Zone but no KAT-TUN and Tackey & Tsubasa. They sing some senpai's songs instead of the group's which is joining, let's say JWEST. Why JWEST, maybe because of they are the youngest. It's not that I don't like the senpai song though~
The transition within each song could be better, it's kinda slightly not smooth yesterday. The lighting and the stage umm~ less luxurious/ spacious for a Johnny's medley. As well as the Johnny's, maybe it's just my opinion, seems lack of excitement from some of them :p haha~ too much complaining from me, ne! Because my expectation is high since the last medley~ Demo, otsukaresama deshita! I do wish a much better medley next year!! :D
p.s. Oh, a dream comes true, my bias Nino and ShigeDai in a group. Plus NishikiRyo joining, Ariake kyoudai reunion! I like their performance :D *a fan bias haha.. I still wish Arashi or just Nino would sing any of Eito's ballad song ^^ later for my birthday, Kazu? haha
Maybe, next time I would post the summary of Johnny's groups, since although my favorite is Arashi, I enjoy other Johnny's groups performances too :)) Ja matta ne!
