Dream's first single in 4.5 years comes out in September.
Quote:
Pop group Dream is returning with their first new single after four and a half years. The song, "Perfect Girls," will be used as the theme of "Wangan Midnight: The Movie," a live-action film based on the popular "Wangan Midnight" manga.
The manga, which deals with the street racing scene on Tokyo's Shuto Expressway, has been adapted to video games, anime, and direct-to-video live-action films. However, "Wangan Midnight: The Movie" will be the first theatrically-released picture for the franchise. Directed by Atsushi Muroga, the film stars Yuichi Nakamura, Ryoko Kobayashi, and Kazuki Kato.
For Dream, who made their major label debut nine years ago, "Perfect Girls" is their first theme song for a movie. The group has been on hiatus since July 2008, but later that year they began preparing for their return. They created a demo tape with more than 20 songs, and the movie production team selected the dance number "Perfect Girls."
The tune will be released as a single in September, the same month "Wangan Midnight" opens in theaters. Dream's last single was "Soyokaze no Shirabe / STORY" in March 2005. The group has also announced plans to hold free concerts in five cities, starting on June 14.

Oh btw, a demo tape with 20 songs? I wonder what that'll lead to...
