"Arigatō (Sekai no Doko ni Ite mo)" (「ありがとう」～世界のどこにいても～, "'Thank You (No Matter Where in the World") is the sixth single of the Japanese boy group Hey! Say! JUMP. It was released on December 15, 2010.
Single Information
"Arigatō (Sekai no Doko ni Ite mo)" is the 6th single of group, and the second for the year 2010. They recently compiled their hits from their debut until now on their first album, Jump No. 1, showing how much the ten members had grown over the years. Now their new single will mark the beginning of their next stage. The theme of the song is the word ‘thank you’ and how this is unique in every country. Even though the title is rather peaceful, the song itself will be more of a hard dance number that will show that Hey!Say!JUMP have become adults.
The single is released in both regular and a CD + DVD limited version. The CD contained the title track plus three different couplings, all with their own karaoke version, for a total of eight tracks on the single. The DVD version came out with the music video and making of the single. The Jacket designs were completely different between the two versions.
Sekai (世界, World) is a song by Chara. It was released as the first single from her album Union on September 13, 2006 (2006-09-13). It debuted at #24 on the Japanese Oricon album charts, and charted for five weeks. The song was used in commercials for the NEC brand 'Foma N702iS' cellphone.
Chara wrote the song in 2005. The main guitar chords in the song were recycled from the song Ongaku (音楽, Music) from her 2005 independently released album Something Blue.
She wrote "Amai Tori" (甘い鳥, Sweet Bird) in the style of Stevie Nicks. The B-side "Anata" (あなた, You) is a cover of Akiko Kosaka's 1973 debut single.
Music video
The music video was shot by director Kenjiro Harigai (針谷建二郎 ). It begins with an animated/CGI image of an egg that cracks becomes a bird. This bird flies off past several doors, and enters one into a space scene. The scene switches to Chara in an almost completely white room with a white dress. She wears her hair half-straight and half in an afro (with the division being vertically down the centre of her head). The scene switches to a drawing a Chara falling through a dark, psychedelic scene, followed by a white-backed scene depicting different drawings. Chara returns to the white room, however with a different hair-style and now drawn animals floating around her. Occasionally the originally dressed Chara appears behind her. The video ends with more psychedelic scenes and the bird flying away into space/clouds.
