That B'z entry at No. 2 probably has one of the longest song titles in J-Pop history. Still, considering their success, Inaba and Matsumoto could probably title a tune "Fido"and it would become a million-seller. B'z and two other bands managed to get double entries into the Top 10 of 1993, and strangely enough, neither of the other two were named Southern All Stars. It was certainly high times for Zard as it got what would be one of the most popular songs in terms of encouragement up on the list in the form of "Makenai de". Rock band The Tra★Bryu's "Road" was a popular song to sing in the karaoke boxes during the early part of my time in Japan. However, the even bigger karaoke favourite was Chage & Aska's "Yah Yah Yah", the audience-lifting megahit theme song to a pretty dark medical drama on TV.
