Nogizaka46 Hit Singles



Listed below are some of the best songs and featured hits by Nogizaka46. It is a bit hard to rank them so I have listed them in order of the Single's release. 

Nogizaka46 Variety Shows such as NogiBingo, Nogizakatte Doko and Nogizaka Under Construction have played a huge part in bringing their music to the forefront. Also, some random sampling at iTunes was done to select songs for creating this list. 

Having said that the best 5 Star hits mentioned below are brilliant. Better than any Title Single!! 
  • Nani Mo Dekizu Ni Soba Iru
  • Wakaregiwa Motto Suki Ni Naru
  • Live Kami
  • Hito wa Naze Hashiru no ka
  • Aitakatta Kamoshirenai
  • IgaiBreak
  • Influencer
  • Atarashii Sekai
  • Aimai
Hadashi de Summer, Influencer & Guru Guru Curtain are the best singles featuring 4-5 hit songs each. In addition to that not all title Singles were that great. Some of the B-Sides are simply outstanding featuring the Under members. The fact remains that on an average they can give at least 2-3 hits out of a Single's package is very commendable. No wonder they are the best next to or alongside AKB48.
