B'z TV STYLE II Songless Version is the second karaoke album by B'z, released on February 20, 1995. To enable fans to sing along as if they were at a karaoke establishment, the featured songs have all primary vocals removed with the full instrumentation and backing vocals remaining intact. The "TV Style" in the title refers to a naming convention common in Japan at the time to refer to karaoke being performed on television, in which karaoke songs performed in broadcasted singing contests and variety shows would be appended with "TV Style".
Along with a preceding album released in 1992 by the title of B'z TV Style SONGLESS VERSION, the pair remain the only karaoke albums released by the band. The only other physically released karaoke version is one for their thirty-eighth single, "Ai no Bakudan", which was included on the limited edition as "Ai no Bakudan (TV Style)".
While B'z has not officially released a great deal of karaoke versions on physical media, their entire library is available at nearly every applicable karaoke venue in Japan for karaoke gatherings.
