Single information

[edit]

On January 5, 2010, it was announced that Arashi would provide the song "Yurase, Ima o" as the theme song for the 2010 Winter Olympics news coverage on NTV.[2] This was the group's third theme song for the NTV Olympic coverage, the previous two being "Hero" in 2004, and "Kaze no Mukō e" in 2008. The next day on January 6, 2010, Sakurai announced that Arashi would provide the theme song "Troublemaker" for his then-upcoming comedy drama during the drama's press conference.[3]

Chart performance

[edit]

On the day of the single's release, it debuted at number-one the Oricon daily singles chart by selling about 232,000 copies.[4] On the Oricon weekly singles chart, the single debuted at number-one and sold about 542,000 copies, making Arashi the first group to have their weekly singles sales exceed 500,000 for two consecutive years since B'z in 2001.[5][6]

On June 24, 2010, "Troublemaker" placed at number-one on the Oricon first half of the year singles chart by selling 688,194 copies in the end of the year.[7] According to Oricon, "Troublemaker" is the third best-selling single of 2010 in Japan.[8]

Live performances

[edit]

On February 12, 2010, Arashi performed "Troublemaker" and "Yurase, Ima o" on Music Station's 1000th Episode Special.[9] However, because of his work as the special newscaster for the Olympics news coverage on NTV, Sakurai could not attend the live music show as he had to go to Vancouver for the opening ceremony.[10] Having finished his work with the Olympics, Sakurai performed "Troublemaker" with the other members of Arashi when they once again went on Music Station on March 5, 2010.[11]
