Mr.Children to perform the theme for Getsu 9 Drama “Nobunaga Concerto”
It’s been a while! But we finally have some news to discuss again (and I expect we’ll have all the more to discuss as we near the end of the year, but more on that later).
Mr.Children have announced that they’ll be providing the theme song for this season’s Fuji TV Getsu 9 drama, “Nobunaga Concerto”. This will actually be the first time in 13 years that the band have supplied the theme for a Getsu 9 drama, since ‘youthful days’ was the theme for “Antique” in 2001. “Nobunaga no Concerto” will start airing on October 13th.
The song has been called a “mid-tempo rock number”, and one that Sakurai apparently kept changing over and over again until he felt it was just right. No title or release date yet, but they’ll probably announce those soon enough. In addition, there are rumors floating around about another end of the year album. We’ll probably know more after they finish up their fan-club lives (I didn’t really see much of a reason to report on these when the news dropped a while back).
Here’s to another active holiday season with Misuchiru!
