Japanese hit songs of 2006 (21–30)
impulseB’z
As a theme song for Detective Conan, it really makes you think, “That’s B’z for you” (lol).
I love the Conan and B’z pairing, so when I first heard it, I was moved.
I only really got the chorus at first, but listening again, the lyrics are indeed cool too.
RedemptionGACKT
As expected of Gackt—it really feels like a song that’s so him.
He was often impersonated on impression shows, and his quirky, stylistic music videos are always a must-see (lol).
Even when you keep watching him, you never get bored of his music, and he’s just cool.
See you againSEAMO
I remember listening to this song over and over, too.
I’d completely forgotten about it since back then, but I think it has a beautiful melody.
The lyrics are expressed quite straightforwardly, and I feel like I know it because it was the theme song for something, but I’ve forgotten what it was (lol).
I believeayaka
This song was a big hit too, wasn’t it? I actually prefer this one to “Mikazuki.” Its calm, mellow tone is soothing.
The lyrics are relatable, so they’re easy to remember, and this one is easier to sing (lol).
Her voice is really solid, isn’t it?
One unwavering thingB’z
I remember the first time I heard this song as a Detective Conan theme at the theater during the ending—I was so taken in by how cool it was.
I even bought the CD, and even now, it’s a song that still feels incredibly cool to me!
