Popular B’z Songs: Introducing Hit Tracks and Beloved Hidden Gems! (11–20)

wishB’z

This is a B’z song that pushes the backs of those who carry a powerful wish they’re determined to fulfill and charge ahead single-mindedly.

Its message conveys a blazing passion so intense it will stop at nothing to achieve its goal.

Koshi Inaba’s powerful vocals and Tak Matsumoto’s technical guitar unite to shake the listener’s soul to its core.

Released in May 1995, the track is also included on the classic album “LOOSE,” and it served as the ending theme for “J-ROCK ARTIST COUNT DOWN 50.” Haven’t we all experienced hitting a wall on our way toward a dream or goal? Let this song reignite your passion and give you the courage to try again.

The B’z song released in November 1991 is known as a classic, textbook rock ballad.

Its lyrics portray the ache of a lost love, and the fusion of Koshi Inaba’s emotionally rich vocals with Tak Matsumoto’s memorable guitar solo resonates deeply with listeners.

Centered on the inevitability of parting and the strong desire to spend just one more moment with a loved one, the song is also a karaoke favorite.

It’s perfect for healing the pain of heartbreak or for reaffirming your feelings for someone special.

BAD COMMUNICATIONB’z

This song portrays a frustrating relationship where words fall short and people end up missing each other.

Even when you truly want to understand each other more deeply, it’s easy to spin your wheels, isn’t it? Lyricist Koshi Inaba intentionally used unadorned expressions to highlight the importance of “genuine communication.” Released in October 1989 as the title track of the mini-album “BAD COMMUNICATION,” it was also featured in a Fujitsu PC commercial.

Despite peaking at No.

12 on the charts, it astonishingly went on to sell over a million copies.

When you feel distance from someone important, this song might give you the courage to face them honestly.

HOMEB’z

Although it’s a mid-tempo ballad, it earned a spot as a single, and an English version was included on the best-of album—making it another song where you can feel a slightly different side of B’z.

The music video, famously filmed in Hong Kong, is also well-known, but it is not included on the original album.

All or NothingB’z

It’s a song produced for the drama “Buzzer Beat: Gakeppuchi no Hero.” It helped expand B’z’s fan base among relatively younger generations.

The opening line, “You only know a small part of me,” really leaves an impression, doesn’t it?

B’z’s “Tsuwamono, Hashiru” captured the hearts of many, inspiring the courage to take on any challenge without giving up.

Many of you may remember it as the support song for Japan’s national rugby team.

The character 兵 in the title is easy to misread as hei, but the correct reading is tsuwamono! Reportedly, when Koshi Inaba was writing the lyrics and thought of the word tsuwamono, he typed it into his smartphone, and a predictive conversion happened to suggest this kanji, which ended up inspiring the title.

I think many people remember it as the theme song for the drama Glass Mask.

In the music video, you can see Inaba with a beard, which is rare these days, so be sure to check it out.

Also, Sakurai from Mr.

Children once sang this song in a TV karaoke competition.
