While the finale could do nothing to top the reunion with Mori (former member turned motorcycle racer in 1996), Goro, Tsuyoshi, and Shingo went all out for the finale: a 72 song medley. Tsuyoshi said this: “since we have no songs, we’ll borrow the songs of other artists.” It’s not surprising they can’t sing SMAP songs since they aren’t even allowed to say the song titles, but it angered me hearing it directly.
It didn’t matter though. Goro, Tsuyoshi, and Shingo pulled together an excellent setlist of 71 songs + the 72-hour theme song “72.” They showed that “SMAP” can be stripped from them, but they will always embody everything that is SMAP.
There were flaws aplenty, but the passion and love were there.
Below is the listing of all 72 songs. Color coordinated by those who performed each. 💗 Goro, 💛 Tsuyoshi, 💚 Shingo
