"Into Free -Dangan-" is an English digital single by B'z, released worldwide on April 4, 2012 via iTunes. The song is an English remake of the 1998 single "Samayoeru Aoi Dangan", with an entirely new arrangement and a substantially altered composition. Although only officially announced on February 1 when it was acknowledged as the global theme to the Capcom video game Dragon's Dogma, it was first premiered live the previous summer during the band's return to North America during B'z LIVE-GYM 2011 -long time no see-.
The single is now available in 51 countries on iTunes from this link.
Track listing
- Into Free -Dangan- — Original: Samayoeru Aoi Dangan (1998)
- The very first of the new English versions to be premiered live, "Into Free -Dangan-"—then simply known as "Dangan"—was used as the opening to the band's 2011 North American tour. When compared to the original version of "Samayoeru Aoi Dangan", it remains the song that has changed most as far as composition and arrangement when compared with the other songs from the self-titled English album. Strings were added in an extended intro to the song with the entire arrangement receiving an overhaul to make it best suited to the new melody and lyrics. When it was chosen by the band to be the theme song to the video game Dragon's Dogma, the producers of the game requested that the lyrics be adjusted to reflect the content of the game's story. This led to the introduction of the line "Dragon inside of me" to the lyrics. The band was very satisfied with the result, with Koshi saying he thought it "turned out to be an extraordinarily great song".
