Just heard all 3 songs on YouTube, I definitely prefer this single over OSCA. I'm loving BB Queen, and digging Karada as well, though not as much. I can imagine TJ playing Karada in live gigs to replace some of their mandatory Engrish songs like Lady is a tramp or genjitsu.

I dunno if Karada'd be a good song to be played live on stage... it's VERY hard to sing like that, when you're performing in front of a lot of people...

I hope, they'll do BBQueen though... that one longs for rocking on stage like hell...

I don't think karada will be too good live because it's just waaaay too slow. Not that you can't have slow songs live but I don't think it will make anyone scream. I think it would fit better if there were more songs like it, or similar pace.

Any other artist, and I can be happy with a song thinking 'I like this' and that it's 'nice', but describing one of my favourite artists singles with the world 'like' = underwhelming disappointment. With that in mind, I like Killer Tune.
See what I did there!

After closer inspection to the title track, I find Killer Tune to be a much better song than OSCA. While I never flat-out bomb this track, I never said anything all that good either. It's a good song that will go to my play list. What I liked about the song:

- The guitar. Yeah, you read that right. Ukigumo kicks the song's ass during the chorus. His mini-solo is out of place though.
- Kameda Sage. Even though his parts are starting to get repetitive in songs, he's still the best musician in the band.

Yeah, I like this song more than OSCA also. As for Uki's mini-solo, I really like it so I find it hard to say that it's out of place, but I the first time I heard it I did feel that way. But, then again, the whole song seemed kinda weird the first time I heard it.

I think the mini-solo is a bit out of place too, but the guitar from 2:00 to 2:15 makes up for it.

^ Love that sig Lena-chan!! peoples been getting some pretty cool sig lately. except you Hedo, I totally dig the SR pics you had before, and you trade them in for... Gackt?

I prefer the CCTV rendition of Killer Tune, with out the mini solo, which is really outta place, something mellow with a little less note would have do, Uki...
