B'z Music Videos: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 03:56, 27 December 2013

WORK IN PROGRESS

As with most musicians, B'z have produced music videos to promote their releases on television and later the internet. These have come in several different forms.

Dedicated videos are those centric on a specific song for their duration and are generally of singles, though not every single had a music video produced. In cases in which those songs required video components in television and video coverage in later years, live performances were often substituted, such as with "ALONE" and its most recognizable performance from "BUZZ!!" THE MOVIE.

Album videos are compilation videos created to promote studio albums. For videos promoting their latest album at a given time, the band once often shot specific short videos for several song, resulting in a handful of short videos joined together to make the whole. Naturally, singles' videos already available beforehand are included in clip form.

Tie-in videos are those produced as commercials or promotional ventures. These include the band's special Pepsi NEX commercials in 2011 and 2012 as well as the videos that feature footage from video games for which B'z songs served as themes.
