"Get Wild" is TM NETWORK's tenth single. The title track and b-side were used as an ending theme and an insert song respectively for the anime City Hunter. "Get Wild" emphasizes the use of the bass drum, instead of the usual snare drum, analog synthesizer, electric guitars, samplers, and other electronic instruments. The song has been covered by various artists like Tamaki Nami, SMAP, Golden Bomber, globe, Ogata Megumi, and others. Utada Hikaru also stated in her web blog that "Get Wild" was one of her favorite Japanese songs when she was a child.[1]
