Template:The Wild Wind Song

A bluesy song that fuses acoustic and electric guitars, "The Wild Wind" has become a fan favorite due to its perceived sentimentality and emotional vocal delivery. The melancholy lyrics are intended to evoke a sense of loss and reflection, making it a marginally unique entry in Koshi's professional songwriting history. The song was prepared to be included in the Japan-Hong Kong film Fuyajo, which became known as Sleepless Town internationally. Prior to this, however, Tak originally composed the tune on which it is based with the intention of playing it as part of his solo corner during LIVE-GYM concerts. However, he changed his mind once deciding the song was too good for that purpose and also a "perfect" fit for Koshi. It has only once been included on an album—the 2000 remixes and re-recording compilation B'z The "Mixture", on which several B-sides, including this one, were included unchanged amongst the new reversions.
