listening to Don't Wanna Lie currently

yup another great one . The mood is much more ... lighter unlike Sayonara Kizu Darake no Hibi yo but both are equally good still =D

[YuriChan]

Rumor has it that B'z is going to release a new album in July. The only name that came up was "VOICE". It's not confirmed, but the name reminds me of the Perfume song of the same name.

[KarenPang]

omg VOICE

honestly they should release 1 more single before a new album , especially since Don't Wanna Lie is their 49th release

I feel it's more fitting to release 1 more single since a 50th single is such a momentum achievement

but hey if they want to release a new album , sure I don't mind at all haha , hard to believe MAGIC was released 2 years ago now D:

btw you never know . B'z might probably listen to Perfume ;D , the same thing goes for DAIGO who do listen to Perfume & AKB48

I mean , he knows how to dance to their songs so ~_~

[YuriChan]

^According to OFFTHELOCK, the album is going to be released July 29th. But the name is not confirmed yet. But who knows, maybe Tak listens to Perfume on the side! But who knows about that when Koshi listens to Utada!! XDD

[KarenPang]

July 29th is a Fri :O so I don't know

Usually new releases pops up on Wed's but maybe this time round , it will be an exception ?

[YuriChan]

^Oops! I got the release date wrong! ^^; It's the 27th instead of the 29th! The only thing they have to worry about is AKB48 (from what I read).

[YuriChan]

Sounds like the boys are planning on a new single after all.. According to this article, a remake of their hit "ultra soul" is the theme for 2011 World Aquatics Championships in Shanghai.

haha see I told you :p . I thought it's more fitting to release 1 more single before an album since their next single will be their 50th in total

Don't Wanna Lie has leaked out - http://gotupload.com/hdrzhg40w03l/Bz...a_Lie.rar.html

great single as usual . Homebound is such a nice ballad !

[YuriChan]

^Thanks for the link, Karen!! (^_^) I thought something was fishy when I read about an album being released on July 27th! But whatever the case, their single will probably have 3 songs (kind of like the MY LONELY TOWN single did) including "ultra soul 2011"!

[KarenPang]

ah I love it when fandoms collide with each other *_*

I always knew SHINPEI is like the biggest #1 fanboy of B'z . I mean he's in their fanclub & let alone for pretty much every B'z item that's released , he will buy it

I saw him posted pics of Koshi's solo album & also B'z's MAGIC DVD a while back ago so

[YuriChan]

^Sweet!! <3 B'z is also #1 (yet again)!

B'z broke their own record! (I'm not surprised about it, but YAY! )

[KarenPang]

lol I'm not very surprised for that because I honestly can say from the stuff I have heard of B'z , they're good if not very good

Don't Wanna Lie is awesome & I love Homebound as well

Congrats guys =D

[YuriChan]

^They're more than very good... They're EPIC!! 8D

[KarenPang]

LOL

well they're not the best selling Japanese act of all time for nothing D: so yeah really , kudos to them super duper big time

I kind of regret not listening to their music much much earlier but I have to start somewhere 8D

And what better way than with Ichibu to Zenbu *_*

[YuriChan]

For me, I got my B'z start at HOME (although, I wasn't aware that it was them until 2005 ). ^_^

[KarenPang]

B'z was always kinda outta reach for me . I wanted to try their stuff but I didn't got a proper start on where I should start with 1st -_- :O

It was only until MTV China overplayed Ichibu to Zenbu like CRAZY & then I decided to cave in

But it's something I don't regret cos I mean after I listened to Ichibu to Zenbu , wow I'm sold onto the song immediately

big time xD
