B’z during their first Music Station SUPER LIVE performance in 1992

Before B’z appeared on stage, a segment was shown in which the band’s history of SUPER LIVE performances was detailed. B’z appeared on the first ever Music Station SUPER LIVE in 1992, during their 5th anniversary. They performed their million selling hit “ZERO” on stage. From there on out, the band can look back on countless Music Station SUPER LIVE performances:

• Music Station SUPER LIVE 1992 – ZERO
• Music Station SUPER LIVE 1996 – SNOW / Shoushin
• Music Station SUPER LIVE 1997 – Swimmer Yo! / Calling
• Music Station SUPER LIVE 2000 – Seventh Heaven / Konya Tsuki no Mieru Oka ni
• Music Station SUPER LIVE 2001 – GOLD / ultra soul
• Music Station SUPER LIVE 2002 – Mou Ichido Kiss Shitakatta / Atsuki Kodou no Hate
• Music Station SUPER LIVE 2003 – IT’S SHOWTIME!!
• Music Station SUPER LIVE 2004 – ARIGATO
• Music Station SUPER LIVE 2005 – Itsuka no Merry Christmas / OCEAN
• Music Station SUPER LIVE 2006 – Shoudou
• Music Station SUPER LIVE 2007 – SUPER LOVE SONG
• Music Station SUPER LIVE 2012 – Ichibu to Zenbu / Ai no Bakudan

Since 2007, B’z have not been present on television as they used to. In 2008, the band was busy celebrating their 20th anniversary and the only time they appeared on television was during the 20th anniversary NHK special. The following year, in 2009, the band didn’t perform on television at all, except for a short comment recorded for their then latest single Ichibu to Zenbu. The last time B’z performed on television was last year, on April 1st, when they performed Sayonara Kizu Darake no Hibi yo and Brotherhood on a Music Station special. For the first time in 5 years, B’z is making an appearance on a Music Station SUPER LIVE.

For the first time in 5 years, B’z is going to perform on a Music Station SUPER LIVE. The Music Station SUPER LIVE is set to be broadcasted on December 21st, 2012 from 7PM to 11:10PM. It is still unclear which song(s) the band is going to perform on television, but one might think that this is a perfect occasion for a rendition of  “Itsuka no Merry Christmas”?! Or perhaps B’z is going to perform an entirely new song? What do you think?

The last time B’z has appeared on a broadcast of a SUPER LIVE was in 2007, when they performed their then latest single SUPER LOVE SONG. But this isn’t exactly the last time B’z has appeared on television. The band was performing on a Music Station special last year on April 1 to show their support for the earthquake victims. They performed Brotherhood and Sayonara Kizu Darake no Hibi yo.
