Another new single!?

When was the last time Arashi released a single on April? Hmm...

[KarenPang]

GUTS ! has been described as an encouragement song to spur you on to pursue your dreams and hopes

Hoping for something upbeat as Bittersweet was really boring

I'm very happy for a new single! "GUTS !" is an awesome title, so I'm looking forward to this single.

Nino played GUTS ! today via his Baystorm radio show

It's very different from what I imagined but definitely way more better/upbeat than Bittersweet

[Beauty4123]

Just listened to "GUTS !". I really like it! It's such a fun song.

The tracklist of this single looks great, too! I like the b-side titles, especially "Love Wonderland".

The CD only is quite amusing & Nino's new hairstyle looks great on him but overall on whole , not really their best ones

[Beauty4123]

I like the covers! They're so cute. My favorite is the CD only.

In addition , they will premiere Daremo Shiranai for the 1st time next week on MUSIC STATION

2014/04/18

Daremo Shiranai / ARASHI
Takane no Ringo Nagiichi / NMB48
Family Party / Kyary Pamyu Pamyu
Number One Yarō！/ Za ・ Kuromaniyonzu
Love Searchlight / Shibasaki Kou
Ē Janai Ka / Johnny WEST

I'm excited to hear how Daremo Shiranai will sound like , wonder could it be another Monster ?

[Beauty4123]

It's absolutely fantastic that Arashi will be releasing a new single so soon! "Daremo Shiranai" is a nice title & I look forward to listening to the song. I also can't wait to watch the MUSIC STATION performance next week!

[KarenPang]

ARASHI ARAFES '13 NATIONAL STADIUM 2013 is their 1st release in getting a Blu-ray

While the reason on why they will be performing Daremo Shiranai next Fri on MUSIC STATION & not GUTS ! (for now) is because Shinigami-kun will be premiering its 1st episode on the very same day

[Bigtop]

Whoa, whoa, whoa...44th single?! But we haven't started talking about the 43rd yet...! GUTS! has not even been released up to this point...!

But hey, Riida-chan dorama theme song? And why would they actually perform that well before GUTS! gets even released?

Maybe two weeks in a row appearing on MS? First Daremo Shiranai for that dorama, and then the "real" Arashi MS appearance for "GUTS!"?
