An Unfading Rainbow / B’z

Released in 1995.

It features a romantic atmosphere and lyrics.

Although it’s a wistful song, the line “I won’t go back to yesterday because I don’t want to lose you” is positive, expressing a sincere feeling for one woman, making it a song that really touches the heart.

B’z / Eternal Wings

B’z is a rock duo loved by countless listeners of all ages and genders.

Their song Eternal Wings is one of their hits.

It was used as the theme song for the 2007 film For Those We Love.

Although the movie deals with the theme of war, Eternal Wings was crafted to match its atmosphere; while it is rock, it carries a somewhat melancholy mood.

Guitar Ha Naite Iru

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.

Real Thing ShakesB’z75rank/position

B’z / Real Thing Shakes

B’z, the rock unit that has built numerous milestones.

Released in May 1996, this work drew attention for its unprecedented format: a one-coin single with no B-side.

Chosen as the theme song for the drama “Watch Out for Us,” it became their 13th consecutive million-selling single, setting a new all-time record at the time.

Produced by Andy Johns, known for his work with Led Zeppelin, it’s a hard rock number performed entirely in English.

The sound woven by Takahiro Matsumoto’s heavy guitar riffs and Koshi Inaba’s soaring high-tone vocals is nothing short of breathtaking.

When it comes to B’z, the impression of “ultra soul” is very strong, but are you familiar with the hidden gem called “Wrap”? There are other intense songs too, but the expression on their faces when they perform this one is incredibly fiery and passionate.

It’s a song I’d love for you to listen to in the summer.

Konya Tsuki no Mieru Oka ni / B’z [Music Box] (Theme song for the TBS drama “Beautiful Life”)

This is a poignant ballad by B’z, one of Japan’s premier big-name artists, which was also used as the theme song for TBS’s classic drama “Beautiful Life,” starring former SMAP member Takuya Kimura, Takako Tokiwa, and Miki Mizuno.

When arranged as a music box, it’s truly moving.

StatementB’z78rank/position

B’z / Declaration

The 53rd single “Seimei,” written as the theme song for the UCC BLACK Sugar-Free commercial and released as a double A-side with “Still Alive.” The intro starts with a drum solo and transitions into a cool guitar riff that really amps up the energy.

Because the melody features a lot of repetition, it’s easy to remember, and with few sudden leaps in pitch, it’s relatively easy to sing for a B’z song—that’s another highlight!

B’z / Core

A track whose distinctive guitar riff in the intro sticks in your ears.

It features a striking contrast: a heavy, slow-tempo, dark verse and pre-chorus give way to a refreshingly bright chorus, then drop back into weighty melodies again.

The way the guitar riff is used is highly effective, making it a potential model for composition.

B’z / Whip

Many people may relate to B’z’s comment about “pushing yourself too hard without meaning to.” This song is a powerful anthem that portrays the struggles of such a person and the determination to keep moving forward.

The depiction of someone driving themselves under pressure and striving to surpass their limits is sure to move you.

Released in January 2025, it colored the story as the theme song for the drama “Informer: Beasts Living in the Dark,” starring Kenta Kiritani.

When you’re desperately chasing something and need one more push, this track will strongly propel you onward.
