The only live recording released in the B'z catalogue, "Gimme your love(Live at Tokyo Dome)" is a live version of the RISKY album song recorded during B'z LIVE-GYM Pleasure'97 "FIREBALL"—named for the then-recent single. It is also the longest B-side in the B'z discography and begins as SURVIVE album track "Do me" ends and contains a brief snippet of "BLOWIN'" at the end. The idea for using a live recording as a B-side was thought to be an interesting prospect, and ultimately was decided to be "GIMME YOUR LOVE" from the recent tour due to the band being especially pleased with the quality of the performance and especially the balloon robots designed in Tak and Koshi's images. Unlike many live albums produced by other artists, the crowd has been almost entirely muted to allow listeners to take in the full live performance as it occurred on stage. Notably, when questioned as to why the Tokyo Dome performance was chosen over the other venues, Koshi said he felt some of the others were a little too noisy for comfortable home listens. Naturally, the promotional video aired on television contained matching footage. This version would go unreleased on home video, but in 2008, a performance from another date at Tokyo Dome was utilized for LIVE-GYM compilation set B'z LIVE-GYM Hidden Pleasure ~Typhoon No.20~. So memorable was this rendition of the song that it would later be recreated for The Final Pleasure "IT'S SHOWTIME!!" in 2003, which was shortly thereafter captured on a matching home video.
