SPEED is back with their third single and I have no doubt that this is another single that is going to be another #1 hit single for the group and continue their domination of the music charts!
“GO! GO! HEAVEN” is an upbeat, fast pop track and a song that is currently be used as the theme for Asahi’s Mitsuya commercials. Definitely faster than any of their previous songs but the vocals are solid, catchy and addictive! The only thing that I found very odd though is how certain media has tried to make the title seem controversial.
For me, “GO! GO! HEAVEN” is just a cool slang but there are some media trying to say that the song is spotlighting young girls prostituting themselves to 55-year-old men? Yeah… Whatever.
The song is a solid SPEED single and the choreography they have shown on stage, especially their music video is pretty awesome!
As for the coupling track, “oyasumi” (translates to “Good Night”) is a song that I didn’t listen to much because at first I thought the song was quite simple arrangement but the more I started listening to it, I fell in love with the song especially the chorus. It’s a mid-tempo groove but it’s that chorus that really grabs you.
The final two tracks are the instrumental versions of both vocal tracks.
Overall, another awesome release from SPEED and I’ve said it before with “Steady”, this is a group that is not going to fade out anytime soon. “GO! GO! HEAVEN” is definitely recommended!
