Arashi's members are:
相葉雅紀 (Aiba Masaki)
松本潤 (Matsumoto Jun)
二宮和也 (Ninomiya Kazunari)
大野智 (Ohno Satoshi)
櫻井翔 (Sakurai Sho)
Over the years the members have grown in popularity - both individually and as a group, leaving behind a string of successful TV shows, dramas and stageplays as well as their music.
In 2008, they had a extremely successful year with the group achieving the Top 2 spots on the Oricon Yearly charts with truth/Kaze no Mukou e and One Love. Apart from that, they were the 3rd artist from Johnny's to hold concerts at 5 major domes in Japan and also, the 3rd artist to perform at the National Olympic Stadium in Tokyo.
On December 18, 2009, Oricon announced that Arashi topped the annual singles, albums and music DVD rankings for 2009 in Japan. All of the group's 2009 singles ranked within the top five placings on the Oricon singles charts: Believe/Kumorinochi, Kaisei at number one, Ashita no Kioku/Crazy Moon: Kimi wa Muteki at number two, My Girl at number three and Everything at number five.
With monopolization of the top three spots on the singles chart, Arashi became the first artist in twenty-one years and the third artist in history - after Pink Lady in 1978 and Hikaru Genji in 1988 - to do so.
Furthermore, the group became the first artist in history to monopolize the top two spots on the singles charts for two consecutive years and to have four releases in the top five.
Their compilation album, "All the Best! 1999-2009", became the best-selling album of 2009 in Japan by selling over 1.43 million copies, making it the first time the group has topped annual album charts.
As for their music video collection DVD - 5x10 All the Best! Clips 1999-2009 and live concert DVD - Arashi Around Asia 2008 in Tokyo, both claimed the number one and two spots on the annual music DVD charts respectively, making it the first time they have also topped annual music DVD charts.
Due to their high sales for 2009, Oricon declared Arashi the best-selling artist of the year and awarded them the "Artist Top Sales" (ATS) award with 14.46 billion Japanese yen (approx. US$161.25792 million) worth of total sales in the singles, album, music DVD and music Blu-ray categories.
As a result of having dominated three separate charts and emerge as the best-selling artist of the year, the group became the first artist in the forty-two years of Oricon's history to have such a record in the same year.

残酷な Monster
月明かり草木眠る頃 (oh no!)
甦る
君の叫びで 僕は目覚める
今宵の闇へ 君をいざなう Monster

気付いたときは
もう閉じ込める (Monster)

あなたがいたから生まれてきたんだ
夜が明けるまで近くにいよう

ドアの無い部屋に迷い込む (no way)
誰か見てる who?
足音がじょじょに近くなる
(Runaway) でも動けない
(Just one) このスリル

"Monster" by 嵐 (Arashi) speaks about a cruel and mysterious monster that awakens at the stroke of midnight, during the time when the moonlight shines upon the sleeping plants and trees. The lyrics describe how the monster hears the cries of a person nearby and is invited to lead them into the darkness of the night. The song shows how the monster elicits fear and intrigue, with phrases like "there's no escape" and "I want to scare you," but also shows its softer side with its confession of love for the person.
The lyrics of the song illustrate how the monster is a symbol for the darker aspects of life, such as fear, uncertainty, love, and heartbreak. The song shows how these emotions can be both terrifying and alluring, and how they can shape our lives and relationships. Overall, the song touches upon themes of love, loss, and the mysterious unknown.
