Song by J-Friends
Translation by soritt.livejournal.com
Tahun 1995, terjadi gempa di Jepang, salah satu gempa besar yang dialami Jepang setelah gempa tahun 1923. Gempa ini juga dikenal dengan Gempa Kobe dan bernama resmi Gempa Bumi Besar Hanshin-Awaji, berkekuatan 7,2 SR.
Setelah peristiwa tersebut, sebuah manajemen artis di Jepang – Johnnys Entertainment bersama manajemen Michael Jackson, bekerja sama menciptakan sebuah lagu bertema humanis, yang bertujuan untuk mengembalikan spirit para penduduk Jepang dan menggalang dana bagi korban bencana tersebut. Maka terciptalah lagu berjudul People of The World yang dinyanyikan oleh J-Friends.
J-Friends sendiri terdiri dari 13 orang penyanyi yang berasal dari 2 boyband dan 1 band milik Johnnys Entertainment, antara lain Kinki Kids (2 orang), V6 (6 orang) dan TOKIO (5 orang). Selain People of The World, beberapa lagu lain yang dimiliki oleh J-Friends adalah Childrens Holiday, Next 100 years, Always, Love Me All Over dan sebagainya.
