B’z’s Popular Songs: Introducing Hit Tracks and Beloved Hidden Gems! (41–50)

REAL THING SHAKESB’z

It was B’z’s first single written entirely in English, and at the same time the first single with all-English lyrics by a purely Japanese artist to reach No.

1 on the Oricon chart.

Not only the lyrics, but also the sound and phrasing have a Western vibe, which makes their worldwide popularity—and their induction into the Hollywood RockWalk—easy to understand.

The guitar is crying.B’z

Among the many ballads B’z has released, this is the one that stands out for portraying the unique relationship between a live stage and its fans.

Featured on their third album BREAK THROUGH, released in February 1990, the track runs over six minutes, yet Takahiro Matsumoto’s soulful, weeping guitar and Koshi Inaba’s heartrending vocals blend beautifully.

Its innovative premise—of a musician on stage secretly harboring feelings for a woman in the audience—captured the hearts of many listeners and has earned the song a reputation among fans as a hidden gem.

Go For It, Baby -The Mountain Range of Memories-B’z

By layering weighty, heavy-handed playing, this track deliberately builds tension and then releases it all at once in the chorus, creating a cathartic effect that’s both satisfying and devilishly clever.

Since the key is to tease the listener thoroughly and guide them slowly toward release, be sure to maintain a solid slow tempo when performing.

HEATB’z

Contrary to what the title HEAT might suggest, this is an unexpected track that isn’t particularly intense or high-energy.

There aren’t big ups and downs from the intro to the chorus, but everything flows smoothly, making it easy to listen to again and again.

If you perform it, aim for smoothness without adding too much edge.

EverlastingB’z

Theme song for the film Detective Conan: The Phantom of Baker Street.

Among B’z’s catalog, this ballad is especially popular, notable for its romantic lyrics and gentle melody.

The emotionally charged vocals slowly seep into your body.

Included on the 2002 album GREEN.

There isn’t a single day I don’t think about you.B’z

Whether together or apart, their hearts are always thinking of each other.

This is a heartwarming love song by B’z that sings of such gentle, profound affection.

The everyday scenes woven by Koshi Inaba and the tender acoustic guitar tones of Takahiro Matsumoto gently warm the heart.

Included on the acclaimed 2015 March release EPIC DAY, the song was also featured in a Huis Ten Bosch commercial.

Listening to this track may make you cherish the ordinary days spent with someone special even more than before.

Don’t leave meB’z

This is a track that distills the more subdued, gritty side of B’z.

It shows a different face from their poppier work, but the quality is so high that the band themselves said they deliberately wanted to release it as a single.

The lyrics, in a sense, depict the feelings of a somewhat wimpy, clingy man—and in fact, B’z has quite a few songs with lyrics like this.
