Last month, Kanjani∞ announced the establishment of their own record label Infinity Records and planned new releases. For their first single under the label, they are treating fans to 2 band songs. The new double A-side single Itta Janai ka! (You Said!)/ CloveR will drop on October 15. Previews of both songs were aired from their radio show.
Unlike their previous A-side band songs which are usually either mellow or dramatic (see: Ai Deshita, My Home, Koko Ni Shikanai Keshiki etc), CloveR takes an upbeat happier tempo to suit as the theme song of the romantic comedy movie “Clover” starring member Ohkura Tadayoshi.
Itta Janai Ka! (You Said!) on the other hand, has lyrics provided by scriptwriter Kudo Kankuro and music composed by Mineta Kazunobu (Ginnan BOYZ). Created with melodies evoking a mixture of sadness and nostalgia, the song will serve as theme song to high school comedy drama“Gomen ne Seishun!” starring Nishikido Ryo. Itta Janai Ka! takes on the familiar Kanjani8 flavor, which is also apparent through the lyrics:
you said you weren’t going to date anyone
you said studying was your boyfriend
you said you couldn’t date anyone too shallow
you said you wouldn’t judge by just looks
l-l-l-l-liar you’re a liar
l-l-l-l-liar i’m in love with you
you said your parents were strict
you said you had to be home by a certain time
you said we had to be friends first
you said only up to 9 pm
l-l-l-l-liar you’re hopelessly stupid
l-l-l-l-liar i’m hopelessly in love with you
i want to know the truth
i don’t want to know the truth
tell me the truth
i don’t want to hear the truth
you said “seeing ohkura-kun’s face calms me down!”
you said “i can talk about anything with murakami-kun!”
you said “i dreamed about yokoyama-kun yesterday!”
you said “if i’m going to marry someone, i want it to be someone like nishikido-kun!”
you said!
you said!! (< — kansai-ben)
you said not that day
you said you had cram school
you didn’t say you were going to an amusement park
you said we were friends
l-l-l-l-liar you better confess
l-l-l-l-liar i’m not forgving you
you said you didn’t have a cell phone
you said your grandma was sick
you said your hamster died
you said you’d come if you could anyway
l-l-l-l-liar you better get an exorcism
l-l-l-l-liar i’m not going away from you
baby baby
i want to know the truth
i don’t want to know the truth
tell me the truth
i don’t want to hear the truth
(repeat multiple times)
if you say the truth i’m beating you up
you said you loved me, that you loved me, that you loved me
you said you loved me, that you loved me, that you loved me
i guess you didn’t
A new album, Kanjanism and another single are planned for release before the year ends.
