A song used in the end credits of the 2016 documentary film We Are X, which follows X JAPAN and YOSHIKI.

It is included on the film’s soundtrack released in 2017.

Singing of single-minded love with the line “I’ll keep loving you until you fly to heaven,” this track pairs just as well with the poignant sound of the piano as it does with the band’s powerful sound.

By all means, reflect on the meaning of the original lyrics and perform it with your feelings for someone special in mind.

Lusty NailX JAPAN

X JAPAN – Rusty Nail(PV)

In terms of guitar coolness, nothing beats this.

I think it’s a perfect masterpiece for couples who want to walk on forever.

In fact, I have a friend who used this song at their wedding, and that couple has lasted a long time—they now have two children.

VANISHING LOVEX JAPAN

X JAPAN – VANISHING LOVE PV

It was often played as the opening at live shows during their indie days.

As you get intoxicated by the contrast between the speed that defines X and the moments where the tension suddenly loosens, you realize you’ve become completely hooked on the band X.

Stab Me In The BackX JAPAN

X JAPAN / Stab Me In The Back (1993)

Although it had been performed live since their indie days, it was remade for the Jealousy version and became the fastest song in X’s history.

It’s a uniquely special track—extremely simple and piercing, yet somehow evoking a sense of claustrophobia.

HIDE’s vocal part during live performances is also a highlight.

Say AnythingX JAPAN

X JAPAN – SAY ANYTHING (X With Orchestra 1991.12.08)

A beautiful ballad that graces the ending of the album “Jealousy.” After finishing recording in Los Angeles, the vocal tracks continued to be recorded even after returning to Japan, but due to TOSHI’s throat problems and the album’s release date being moved up, YOSHIKI said he wasn’t completely satisfied with the result.
