Don’t Wanna LieB’z

A B’z song that passionately proclaims the strong resolve to never lie to oneself at life’s pivotal moments.

Released in June 2011 as their 49th single, it was used as the opening theme for the anime Detective Conan and as the theme song for the film Detective Conan: Quarter of Silence.

Koshi Inaba’s heartfelt lyrics and Tak Matsumoto’s dramatic melody—crafted to resonate on both television and in the theater—perfectly align with the protagonist’s pursuit of truth.

The track is also included on the album C’mon and the best-of compilation B’z The Best XXV 1999–2012.

Kenichi Maeyamada, also known as Hyadain, is a multi-talented artist who not only performs as a singer but also works as a producer, lyricist, composer, and arranger.

He has contributed so many songs to anime that it’s hard to list them all.

With his background in video game music production, his lively anison style and Hyadain’s upbeat voice are truly wonderful.

As expected, is his name derived from “Hyado,” “Hyadain,” and “Hyadaruko?”
