Go For It, Baby -The Mountain Range of Memories-B’z53rank/position

B’z / GO FOR IT, BABY -Mountain Range of Memories-

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.

A track whose grand music and powerful message stir the soul.

Released by B’z in August 2001, this song was chosen as the official theme for the FINA World Championships Fukuoka 2001.

Takahiro Matsumoto’s guitar and Koshi Inaba’s vocals blend beautifully, and the arrangement—enriched with strings—leaves a deep impression.

KOIGOKORO (Feelings of Love)B’z57rank/position

B’z [Koigokoro]

For B’z, it’s a rare, pop-leaning melody that makes this unrequited love song a joy.

He wants to talk to the girl he fell for at first sight, but he lacks confidence and can’t bring himself to do it.

The moment he steels himself to approach her, her female friends promptly gather around, and she never ends up alone—so he ultimately can’t do anything.

It’s a classic that evokes the bittersweet youth so many of us have experienced.

Don’t Wanna LieB’z58rank/position

B’z / Don’t Wanna Lie

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.

When you’re wavering before a major decision and want to stay true to your convictions, this song will give you a powerful push forward.

UtopiaB’z59rank/position

B’z / Utopia

It’s a hidden gem by B’z that sings of how, even if the world isn’t perfect, the imperfect present spent with someone precious is itself a utopia.

Koshi Inaba’s lyrics brilliantly portray the protagonist’s emotions as they waver between ideals and reality, gradually recognizing the happiness right beside them.

Responding to those feelings, Tak Matsumoto’s guitar tone resonates in a way that’s sure to make your heart swell.

After listening to this piece, you’ll find yourself wanting to treasure the everyday moments more than ever before.

Wonderful OpportunityB’z60rank/position

A shuffle number that opens B’z’s fifth album, IN THE LIFE.

Written around the theme of encouraging people who are feeling down after going through something tough, the lyrics are filled with positive words that blow away the gloom and give you a push forward.

The pop, upbeat sound right from the start lifts your spirits and, together with the lyrics, raises your energy.

It’s the kind of track you want to listen to when you just can’t feel positive—one that helps you forget the bad stuff.
