if you're not interested in B'z in any single bit , why you even bother to post on here , I don't get it seriously

Still waiting for GO FOR IT, BABY -Kioku no Sanmyaku- to leak out D:

[YuriChan]

The single leaked!! http://www.j-mp3.info/2012/04/bz-go-for-it-baby.html

[KarenPang]

honestly , the B-sides for GO FOR IT, BABY -Kioku no Sanmyaku- are not very memorable if not weak

I've listened to both tracks a couple of times but surprisingly this time round , I'm not able to grasp hold of them easily unlike their past B-sides :x

hmmm maybe these songs are not called B-side for nothing but what the heck at least the A-side still kicks serious ass big time

[YuriChan]

^Honestly, yeah.. They are a bit "meh".

[KarenPang]

glad I'm not the only 1 that felt the same way over the B-sides :3

& freaky as you've said before , Honoka Naru Hi really does sounds like ayumi's Days O_O

I don't know if that's a good or bad thing D:

[YuriChan]

^It also reminds me a bit of Koshi's "Tooku made"! XDD But in other news... B'z is doing another North American tour!!!! O__O Oh and they're releasing Into Free -Dangan- on iTunes worldwide!!!
