This is L'Arc~en~Ciel's 1st new song release since 2021's 44th single FOREVER .
YOU GOTTA RUN will be released physically next year on 15th Jan as L'Arc~en~Ciel's 45th single .
Promo wise , YOU GOTTA RUN was chosen to use as the opening theme to promote the BEYBLADE X anime .
Written by vocalist hyde & composed by bassist tetsuya , YOU GOTTA RUN was created to fit perfectly with the dynamic world of BEYBLADE X . The band shared their excitement stating , “We think we've created a wonderful song that truly matches the world of BEYBLADE X . We hope fans enjoy it alongside the opening animation .”
"As people who are constantly thinking about what can be conveyed through words & voice , we were immediately captivated . We really wanted to be part of BEYBLADE X . We particularly enjoyed how the protagonist's recitation scenes are expressed . We got to experience the original BEYBLADE , which made us reflect on the raw emotions & logic-based talent that resonates with us personally. "
YOU GOTTA RUN is worth the wait from L'Arc~en~Ciel & it's classic L'Arc~en~Ciel at their very best . Even though in recent years they have not been musically active as a group , they're nonetheless still highly respected .
That said , I enjoy YOU GOTTA RUN a great deal & I really hope it will not take L'Arc~en~Ciel so long for them to release something new .
