I only know ... 3 songs outta 18 songs from the setlist -____________-'''

but it's better than 0 :O

[YuriChan]

It's such an amazing setlist!! I'm a HUUUGE fan of さまよえる蒼い弾丸 and Dangan is the remade version. I'm surprised that he made an English version along with SPLASH! O__O Oh, Karen, I'd highly reccomend listening to their older stuff! It's just as amazing as their stuff before MAGIC!

[KarenPang]

yeah I know I really should listen to their older works :x but it's just so much stuff that I probably have missed out

B'z has been in the business for so long & I can't imagine how much I have to listen in order to keep up with them man D:

That's why I started from Ichibu to Zenbu onwards ... well I have to start somewhere right ? ;D

It's better late than never x)

[YuriChan]

^I'd recommend getting their latest BEST album. Both PLEASURE and TREASURE!

[KarenPang]

C'mon has leaked

I'm currently downloading it & I will be using the next few days to listen to it

[YuriChan]

^:O THANK YOU, KAREN!!!! Thank god I'm going to buy the regular edition soon.

[KarenPang]

I'm in the midst of listening to C'mon but so far so good !

Hito Shizuku no Anata & DAKERA so far are the ones that stood out to me & that goes for Pilgrim !

The Meister reminds me of LONG TIME NO SEE :O

[YuriChan]

My review of "C'mon" from my LJ! (Warning: it's kind of vague.)

Spoiler:

ALBUM REVIEW: C'mon [B'z]

1. C'mon: The opener of the album, it gives off a late 90's light rock feeling. 10/10

2. さよなら傷だらけの日々よ: The first single off the album, this is song gives the vibe of "angry but fierce". The song is about moving on from the pain. 10/10

3. ひとしずくのアナタ: Electronica rock? This song has a sound that's refreshing. It gives me an 80's vibe, for some odd reason! 10/10

4. Homebound: Ahh, a serene ballad. It reminds of another ballad off of ACTION... Oh yeah! 「僕には君がいる｣! Either way, it's another amazing ballad from the boys of B'z! 10/10

5. Don't Wanna Lie: The second single to come out, it serves as the movie theme AND the opening theme for Detective Conan (using part of the PV for the opening since ギリギリChop in 1999). It defently has that anime feeling in the song and it songs like a song that could use a spring video. But it's another amazing song from B'z! 10/10

6. DAREKA: The beginning is interesting, but the chorus is amazing! <3 9/10

7. ボス: Oo! This song has a funky, bluesy feeling. Kind of giving off a bit of a Maroon 5 vibe in the song. But it's still a lot of fun! 10/10

8. Too Young: This song is a bit odd. It has a jazzy feeling, nonetheless. But it feels out of place on the album. At least in my eyes... 8/10

9. ピルグリム: This song is interesting but kind of serene. This is the type of song you'd listen to while you're driving! It reminds me a bit of some of YUI's songs! 10/10

10. ザ･マイスター: This starts off like "long time no see" and Koshi starts the song off kind of like "純情ACTION". But this is defently a motorcylce driving type of song! 10/10

11. デッドエンド: What a heavy metal type of song! It's another B'z song that sounds metal since MONSTER (which is a plus). 10/10

12. 命名: The next to last track on the album. This song is a power ballad that is on par with PRAY, but it lacks the power that their previous ballads had. 8/10

13. ultra soul 2011: The finisher! This song kicks so much ass that it makes the original ultra soul weep (not that I don't like the original)!! 10/10

ALBUM RATE: 9/10

(This may be just me, but I love this album so much, but it lacks the power that MONSTER has. Hope this is helpful! lol)

[KarenPang]

I still need a bit more time to listen to the album tracks for C'mon , especially since it's 10 new songs , ok maybe 9 since I already have heard the title track before the whole album leak out xD

But yeah B'z is really no doubt in question legendary rock gods at the end of the day

It frankly sucks that not a lot of people on the forums are not listening to them , it's like helloooooo , they're missing out on so many things ~_~

[YuriChan]

^I knooow! Tell me about it!

[KarenPang]

lol it's ok , the same thing happens with BREAKERZ as well on here so I totally understand the feeling ._.

But I think it's great there're connections going on with B'z & BREAKERZ , especially since both bands start & end with the same alphabets XD

Also , I only found out just how much of a fanboy BRZ's SHINPEI is of B'z much later on

He's in B'z's fanclub so

But I didn't got into B'z just because of BRZ . It was MTV China that overplayed the Ichibu to Zenbu PV which led me to check B'z out & the rest's history

It's our gain , Heather & other people's losses

[YuriChan]

^ It's an acquired taste! Besides, the last time a song has been remade into a hard rock style was their debut single "だからその手を離して (Dakara Sono Te wo Hanashite)".

[KarenPang]

I always have like rock music way before I cross over to jpop . I wanted to try B'z for the longest time but because I have missed out so much of their older works , I didn't know where to begin ._.

but I'm lucky I was able to watch the Ichibu to Zenbu PV on MTV China which it was being overplayed quite a lot & the rest's history ;D

MTV China also played DIVE as well but I haven't seen them playing B'z's latest PVs so ~_~
