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 ↴
All the ups and downs
Just like the waves that rise and fall
Too many times
I had made you cry
I'm sorry
I remember
Gave me a last piece of candy
I look at you
I see a big smile on your face
You are my love (You are the one)
All that I see (For love and one)
I'm just being real
Flavor of love (Just like a mint)
I think I've found my destiny
Tell me how you feel
You are the only one in my eyes
Look at the stars sparkling so bright in the sky
You see the Polaris twinkling
Right by its side, There is a moon shining
Through the night Oh
You said there's no equation of love
You just gotta follow your heart
Baby I will be true to myself tonight
You are so sweet (You are the one)
All that I need (For love and one)
I'll be by your side
You are so pure (Just like a mint)
I wanna spend my life with you
Baby there're no lies
You are the only one in my eyes
Just close your eyes
Feel the ocean breeze
I wanna stay right here with you
You are my love (You are the one)
(For love and one)
You're the only one
Now let me share my life with you
When times are hard (Just like a storm)
We'll be alright through the rains and storms
I'll be standing tall
Baby as long as I got you
(You are the one) You are my love
(For love and one)
I'm just being real
Flavor of love (Just like a mint)
I think I've found my destiny
Tell me how you feel
You are the only one in my eyes
You are the only one in my eyes

All throughout the night

I'm not hiding any truth
Just close your eyes
Shut your eyes
Feel the ocean breeze
Sense the sea wind
I wanna stay right here with you
I want to be next to you forever
Now let me share my life with you
Let me spend my life with you
When times are hard (Just like a storm)
In difficult times (like a tempest)
We'll be alright through the rains and storms
We'll be fine through any hardship
I'll be standing tall
I'll be strong
Baby as long as I got you
As long as I have you
(You are the one) You are my love
(My beloved) You are my everything
(For love and one)
(For love and unity)
You're the only one
You are the sole one
You are the only one in my eyes
You are the only one I see and love

元がメロディー的にも洋楽だからか
邦楽のようにたくさん言葉数を詰め込んでないというのもあって
「君しか」「見えない」「本当だよ」
無駄な言葉を一気に削ぎ落として
シンプルにシンプルに少ない語彙で
どれだけ大きい気持ちを伝えられるか
そこらへんが他のバラードソングとは
一線を画した曲だと思う。
そしてそういう曲は
歌唱力の高い人達でないと
自分のものにして歌えない

私の母が1番好きな曲です。母は3年前に病気になり施設に居ますが、発売された時の当時の元気だった頃を思い出しながら聴いています。あー。。って悲しさも出てきますが、キンキの2人がこうやって昔の曲を現在唄ってくれて、何か同じように生きてるんだとしみじみと感じています。何が言いたいのかごちゃごちゃですが、本当にKinKi Kidsを小さい頃から好きになってよかったなぁと、改めて思っています。ありがとう光一君剛君。
@user-sl7kl8wb5u
感動しました🥲🥺
@user-gs2yb1hi9c
KinKi Kidsの曲は時代を問わずいつ聴いても色んな思い出を蘇らせてくれますよね。お母様とのリンクしたお話を聞いて感動したので、ついコメントしてしまいました。いつまでもお母様にとってKinKi Kidsの薄荷キャンディーは心の支えと元気の源になってくれると思います。
