Seimei/Still Alive (声明, Declaration) is the fifty-third single by B'z and their third double A-side, released on June 14, 2015. It is their first since 2015's non-album single "RED" and stands as the single with the most unique tracks in their catalogue.
Track listing
- Seimei — Declaration, 声明
- Still Alive
- Sekai wa Anata no Iro ni Naru — The Color This World Will Take Depends on You, 世界はあなたの色になる
- File:e2 01.ogg The fifth movie theme provided by the band for the Detective Conan film franchise, "Sekai wa Anata no Iro ni Naru" is a special entry for several reasons. The darker tone of the music intentionally contrasts with other songs B'z have contributed to the series. In the writing and recording process, Koshi noted that they aimed to create a different sort of song because the movie itself intended to center in on some of the "darker parts of Conan's story".
- Fukiarenasai — Blow Violently, フキアレナサイ
- File:e3 01.ogg Envisioned as a winter version of "ultra soul", "Fukiarenasei" was written for the action film Shippu Rondo. Due to both members' ongoing solo projects, the song was recorded and produced separately while Koshi worked with Stevie Salas in Tokyo and Tak worked with Daniel Ho in Los Angeles. The track features Jason Sutter and occasional B'z collaborator Juan Alderete on drums and bass, respectively, with the former having worked with Tak during production on enigma and on tour for Tak Matsumoto Tour 2016 -The Voyage-.
