Widely known in Japan, the KinKi Kids are very popular among girls of all ages, and their subscription concerts even draw boys. Not only do they sing, but they are also talented actors, having appeared in popular dramas, movies, and commercials both alone and together. For example, Tsuyoshi played a part in Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo and Summer Snow, and Koichi was in Remote as well as Sushi Ouji. However, despite their shared surnames, they are in fact completely unrelated and hail from two different prefectures in the Kinki region.
KinKi Kids are signed and promoted by Johnny and Associates. Other well-known Johnny and Associates groups include SMAP, TOKIO, V6, NEWS, and Arashi.

KinKi Kids Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
薄い月寂しく見える
灼けた壁が続く未来が
明日を追い越そうとしてる
もうゆずれない夢に背を向けずに
抱えて行こうとそう思うんだ
追い風にふくらんだシャツの
ボタンをひとつ外して
自由を探しに行くよ
あの飛行機雲と零れ出した想いが
ガラス色の胸に浮かんでいるよ
いざ此処に
雨の後の水たまりの上
消えては儚げに映る
君を僕を目に焼き付けた
想いが途切れないように
何故 いずれ僕らは
無くすのだろう？
夢描く無垢な心
色づく季節の花が
抜ける河原の風が
独りになった僕の心を突いていくよ
あの頃の君の頬をつだう涙に
息づいてたものを刻んで行くよ
この胸に
今 僕らの前に立ちはだかる
孤独さえ吹き飛ばせそうさ
追い風にふくらんだシャツの
ボタンをひとつ外して
地図を破り捨てて
自由を探しに行くよ
あの飛行機雲と零れ出した想いが
ガラス色の胸に今でも伝っているよ
やがて季節変わって
もう一度この場所に立って
懐かしむ時には
君に笑っていて欲しい
The lyrics of KinKi Kids' "Eien no Bloods" is a contemplative song that reflects on change and growth, as well as the idea of being able to chase after one's dreams. The song begins with the image of looking up at the sky, and how the moon, though thin, feels lonely. The lyrics then speak of a future with unrelenting obstacles, but despite this, the singer affirms a determination to not turn their back on their dreams. They take off one button from their shirt as they prepare to embark on a journey to find freedom, depicted by them tearing up a map.
The second part of the song speaks of the transience of things, as their memories become fragile and subject to fading away. The singer then wonders why we are bound to lose these memories one day despite how much they mean to us. They reflect on the beauty of nature, such as the flowers that blossom during the changing seasons, and how they can pierce through one's heart even when they are alone. The singer remembers the tears that once ran down their loved one's cheeks and expresses how they want to hold onto those memories forever.
The song's chorus repeats the idea of tearing up a map and chasing after one's dreams, with the added emphasis of wanting to overcome solitude. The song ends with a hopeful message, stating that they want to stand in this place once more and reminisce with a smile on their face.

ひとり空を見上げた朝は
On the morning when I looked up at the sky alone
薄い月寂しく見える
The thin moon looks lonely
灼けた壁が続く未来が
The future filled with charred walls
明日を追い越そうとしてる
Trying to surpass tomorrow
もうゆずれない夢に背を向けずに
Without turning away from the dream that cannot be given up anymore
抱えて行こうとそう思うんだ
I think I'll carry it with me
追い風にふくらんだシャツの
The shirt that swells in the tailwind
ボタンをひとつ外して
Unbuttoning one button
地図を破り捨てて
Throwing away the map
自由を探しに行くよ
Going to search for freedom
あの飛行機雲と零れ出した想いが
The feelings spilled out with the airplane's contrail
ガラス色の胸に浮かんでいるよ
Are floating in my glass-colored heart
いざ此処に
Now, here
雨の後の水たまりの上
On the puddles after the rain
消えては儚げに映る
Appearing fleeting as they disappear
君を僕を目に焼き付けた
Burning into my eyes, you and I
想いが途切れないように
So that the feelings won't be interrupted
何故 いずれ僕らは
Why will we eventually
無くすのだろう？
Lose them?
夢描く無垢な心
An innocent heart that dreams
色づく季節の花が
The flowers of the changing seasons
抜ける河原の風が
The wind blowing through the riverbed
独りになった僕の心を突いていくよ
Pierce through my lonely heart
あの頃の君の頬をつだう涙に
In the tears that trace your cheeks from back then
息づいてたものを刻んで行くよ
I’ll engrave what was alive
この胸に
In this heart
今 僕らの前に立ちはだかる
Now, standing in front of us
孤独さえ吹き飛ばせそうさ
Even the loneliness seems to be blown away
やがて季節変わって
Eventually, the seasons will change
もう一度この場所に立って
Stand in this place once more
懐かしむ時には
When I feel nostalgic
君に笑っていて欲しい
I want you to be laughing

4部作がわからないって方も多いと思うので…
↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓
2003年に発売したシングルのMVが繋がってて 永遠のBLOODS→心に夢を君には愛を→薄荷キャンディー→Bonnie Butterfly
になってて、これらをまとめて「鏡の中の六月」というタイトルがついてます(*´꒳`*)
全て公開されるかはわかりませんが、公開されたらストーリーも楽しみに観たいですね！
かた まり
当時はMVを気軽に観られる環境になくて、母親に泣きついて頼み込んでガストの店内テレビで流れるまで粘り、その一度を記憶に刻み込んだのですが、19年後にこんなに高画質でお手軽にYouTubeで観られるなんて感無量すぎて泣きそうです
みんみん
20年前から変わらぬ味と思い出を提供するガストもすごいですね

素敵な思い出✨

懐かしいですね！自分はボウリング場にいって３００払ったらモニター全部にうつるやつやってました笑
ナグチャンパ
そう言う思い出大事
なんでも簡単にできたら物のありがたみが薄れるし
こういういいエピソードも生まれない

大好き！ここから始まる物語だから、PVの流れこの後も続いてほしいな～。
ドラマ仕立てにしたことで、歌の力だけじゃなくて、演技の力も含めたKinKiの表現力も発揮されてて、ことごとく力のある2人だな、と。

KinKi Kids 二人が大好きです かっこいいです

I am an American fan from the early 2000s. It is sublime to see these videos on YouTube after so many DECADES of using CDs and DVDs( and VCDs!)to listen to and watch the boys. It is almost a dream come true. Asian Pop owes a debt of gratitude to Tsuyoshi and Koichi. I am thrilled to finally see these artworks get the respect they rightfully deserve. I would like to wish the Kiddos continued success into the future.

I am glad to hear that you have been supporting KinKi Kids for long time. Please continue to support them with us!!🇯🇵🇺🇸

KinKi主演のドラマとかまたあればいいのに～
