Recochoku recently held a poll asking users to vote for their favorite “thank you” song, and the results are in!

Topping the list was Ikimonogakari’s hit song “Arigatou,” which – as its name implies – expresses a person’s gratitude toward a loved one. Nishino Kana’s song, “Best Friend”, was also popular with voters because of its lyrics, which thank a close friend for being there through thick and thin.

Check out the full ranking below to see if your favorite made the cut!

  • YukiNozofan

    Ikimono gakari’s arigatou is a good choice <3 I was surprise to see Eternal there <3 Jin :D

    Nice list but I choose 5×10 over My Girl for Arashi. And Thank you by Home Made Kazoku also great thank you song.

    Yes. I like 5×10 the most. It is really touching.

    (I don’t really listen to any of these people so I’ll just share my own favorite ^^)

    Probably Ayu’s RED LINE ~for TA~ (though it’s caught between like an encouraging song and a thank you like song ^^) “Virgin Road” by Ayyu kinda comes off as a thank you song too… it was a song for her mother I heard ^^

    Niceee list. Ikimono gakari’s Arigatou is by far my fave thank you song because of its wonderful lyrics, melody & Kiyoe Yoshioka’s voice. Rest of the artists & thank you songs up there are absolutely brilliant too ^_^

    As many others mentioned 5×10 should have been on the list instead of My Girl(eventhough I love My Girl), 5×10 is really touching and beautiful!

  • AMNOS

    Agree with everyone who says it should of been 5×10 rather than My Girl!
    It’s such a great song that they wrote for their fans to say Thank you ^^
    Luv those guys <3

  • arashi_oneday

    Arashi’s “5×10″ for me <3 My eternal favorite thank you song <3 I never get tired of listening to it <3 It's a song that I can listen to for hours on repeat (and I have xD) <3 I was expecting 5×10 to be there actually. My girl's pretty good too but 5×10 tops all for me <3

    Arashi’s 5×10 is a great song but i would prefer “Kansha Kangeki Ame Arashi”, kansha is more way better in my opinion,

    Although she may not be famous, I find Kokis’s Arigatou to be one of the best thank you song. You can feel how beautiful it is even if you don’t speak Japanese.

    Wow, my picks were way off. I’d say “Thank You” by Home Made Kazoku, “Kansha Kangeki Ame Arashi” by Arashi, or “Happy Summer Wedding” by Morning Musume.
