Mr.Children to sing the theme song for FujiTV Autumn 2014 drama "Nobunaga Concerto"

Mr.Children will be singing the theme song of FujiTV Autumn 2014 drama "Nobunaga Concerto" starring Oguri Shun which will begin its run from 13 October in the Mondays 9pm timeslot. This makes it the first period drama to be shown in the Gekku period since the timeslot started in the late 80s. It will be also be the first Gekku theme song from Mr.Children in 13 years since their song "youthful days" was used for the Autumn 2001 drama "Antique". The title of the new theme song is still undecided but it's said to be a medium rock number.

Oguri plays the role of Saburo, a high school student in the modern era who accidentally goes back into the Warring Era (1549) where he resembles the young Oda Nobunaga. He is then told to impersonate as Nobunaga while the real heir of the Oda family goes away to somewhere else.
