The members are:
大倉忠義 (Ohkura Tadayoshi - green ranger)
村上信五 (Murakami Shingo - purple ranger)
丸山隆平 (Maruyama Ryuhei - orange ranger)
安田章大 (Yasuda Shota - blue ranger)
横山裕 (Yokoyama You - black ranger)

Ex-member:
内博貴 (Uchi Hiroki - He has never been a ranger, because he left before they started as rangers)
渋谷すばる (Shibutani Subaru - red ranger)
錦戸亮 (Nishikido Ryo - yellow ranger)

The members are known for being very close, possibly even the closest in all of Johnny's, shown by their annual barbecues and birthday celebrations together. In concerts they have been known to dress up as "Kanjani Sentai 8 Ranger" and do skits. Their ranger outfits of course are in their image colors.

In December 2002 the group was created out of members of Kansai Juniors. At the time, the 7 members excluding Ōkura Tadayoshi were appearing on the TV program "J3 KANSAI" on Kansai TV. In the Kansai area, Kansai TV is on channel 8, so Johnny Kitagawa added another member, Ōkura Tadayoshi, to match the channel number. Shortly after their formation, they held their first concert, titled "Kanjani8 Xmas Party 2002" at the Osaka Shouchikuza theater, where they performed their first song as an 8-member group, Do you agree?.

On August 25th, 2004 they released their first single, Naniwa Iroha Bushi which was first limited to the Kansai area but later (September 22nd) was released nationally as well. The limited-release CD debuted at a record #1 on the Oricon Enka chart, and a #8 on the overall chart. The nationwide release reached #1 on both the Enka and overall charts. At this time, the numerical "8" in their name was turned onto its side and made into an infinity symbol (∞).

一秒 KISS
関ジャニ∞ Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

一秒 KISS じらさないで
まばたきより早く KISS
一秒 KISS 知らんフリで
君は僕のこと気づかない KISS
天気予報じゃ午後から雨さ
傘は持たずに行くよ
少し小さな君の傘の中で
チャンスを狙うさ

もうこんな時間だぁ
あせる気持ちは
I need you I miss you I kiss you
早めにどしゃ降りたのむぜ
一秒 KISS じらさないで
まばたきより早く KISS
一秒 KISS 知らんフリで
君は僕のこと気づかない KISS
時間稼ぎで映画を見よう
ハヤリのラブ・コメディさ
すごくいい感じ外に出て
ガックし
きれいな夕焼け
映画見てる間に雨はやんでた
I need you I miss you I kiss you
心はどしゃ降りつらいぜ
一秒 KISS じらさないで
まばたきより早く KISS
一秒 KISS 知らんフリで
君は僕のこと気づかない KISS

もう帰るなんて急に言いだす
I need you I miss you I kiss you
おやすみのkissもおあずけ?
バイバイ
一秒 KISS じらさないで
まばたきより早く KISS
一秒 KISS 知らんフリで
君は僕のこと
一秒 KISS じらさないで
まばたきより早く KISS

一秒 KISS 知らんフリで
君は僕のこと気づかない KISS

Overall Meaning

The song "一秒 KISS" by 関ジャニ∞ is a tale of a man trying to steal a kiss from the woman he loves. The lyrics describe how the woman is unaware of his feelings, and he tries to take advantage of the chance to kiss her in secret. The song opens with the line "一秒 KISS じらさないで" which translates to "Don't tease me with a one-second kiss." The singer is pleading for the woman not to taunt him with a brief kiss, hoping instead for something more meaningful.

The singer describes how he will attempt to steal the kiss quickly, before the woman has a chance to even blink. He is worried about the weather and mentions that it might rain in the afternoon but he doesn't bring an umbrella. He hopes to keep the woman's company under her small umbrella for a chance to kiss her. He describes his nervousness and anxiety in the lines "もうこんな時間だぁあせる気持ちは I need you I miss you I kiss you" which means "It's already this late, my anxious feelings make me miss and want to kiss you."
