Did you enjoy this list? Be sure to visit a character café while in Japan this summer.

6-member Japanese pop group AAA have dropped a music video for their new song DEJAVU. The song serves as the lead track to their forthcoming new album COLOR A LIFE set for release on August 29.

 

The concept behind the music video is that ambiguous dreamlike world you sink into during déjà vu.

 

Like their single LIFE, which became popular for the L-dance, the new uses catchy choreography, with the members making a V shape during the chorus – the “V” of “déjà vu.” A lot of teenagers in Japan have been copying the dance moves of their favourite artists and posting it online. We might be seeing the new V-dance from them very soon.

The group also unveiled the CD cover (above) for COLOR A LIFE. The picture itself makes use of a lot of colour. Fans will be very much anticipating this 12-track album from AAA. DEJAVU is now available early for digital download.

 

 

Japanese pop group AAA are currently in the middle of their fan meeting tour which is taking theme to arenas across Japan. In recent news, it’s just been announced that their new song Tomorrow will be used as the main theme song for the upcoming Fuji TV Tuesday 9pm drama series Kenkou de Bunkateki na Saiteigendo no Seikatsu which will begin in July. This marks AAA‘s first involvement in providing a main theme for a Tuesday 9pm drama.

The drama, set to begin on Tuesday July 17 at 9pm (JST) features Japanese actress Riho Yoshioka as the protagonist. The show takes place in a welfare department and explores themes that hit home to anybody including money, health, work and family.

 

The show is based off the manga of the same name by Haruko Kashiwagi. The original work placed 10th in the Kono Manga wa Sugoi! 2015 awards. It has received high praise and attention not much in the media, but with case workers, as well as in the medical care and welfare departments.

Tomorrow was written specifically for the drama series and is AAA‘s first ballad track in almost 3 years. The song states that although we may feel a loss of emotional support in our lives, it’s important to hold the love and words of those precious to us close and take a bold forward into tomorrow.

 

Below is a comment from the drama’s producer Takashi Yoneda who spoke about AAA‘s involvement.

“AAA is a group who is gaining support from a diverse range of people. But that didn’t happen overnight. They’ve got to where they are now with time, hard work, and experience in their career. That’s why their music has the power to encourage anyone. I was convinced that there was no other artist fitting enough, so I asked them on board.”

 

Mitsuhiro Hidaka, a member of AAA, is himself a fan of the original manga. He also spoke about his enjoyment in being put in charge for the drama’s main theme song.

“I am extremely grateful for being able to be involved like this. The topic of welfare may be something difficult to picture in your head just hearing the word, but I look forward to the day that I can feel Emiru and the gang’s growth told alongside my story, and your story. That it’s not a story about wanting to keep the place you live close.”

 

AAA will release their new album COLOR A LIFE on August 29. The album includes the track Tomorrow which features in the drama. The group will go on to tour in September in support of the album.

 

 

The music video for AAA’s new single No Way Back, set to hit shelves on July 5th, has just been released.

 

The song is about how you can’t backtrack on love, and each member of the group, as always, shows off their cool and sexy faces throughout the video. The music video for this summer pop smash hit features the members looking cool and sexy as always, getting down by the pool and looking refreshed to give us those summertime vibes. The aqua tone of the set contrasts with the adult feeling given to us through each member’s beaming expressions.

 

This is the first dance video from AAA in a while, so it will no doubt go down well with fans at their future live shows.

 

AAA have also released an original collaborative movie with Kirin Hyoketsu® which can only be seen online. There’s plenty of off-shot footage of the group during the filming of No Way Back to be enjoyed, as well as selfie-shots. Be sure to check it out if you haven’t seen it already!

Naoya Urata is the leader of this group and also solo artist. He has a great reputation as a singer. He has high note voice. He used to be an Ayumi Hamasaki’s back dancer by the way.

  Chiaki Ito produces “Charming Kiss” which is cosmetics brand. She also produces other apparel brand in addition to dance performing at AAA. She takes a wide range of activities with her talents.

  AAA’s performance is the great combinations of 7member’s individualities.

 

 For further leap.
