SCANDAL's new song 「Weather report」 will be a tie-in song for the Japanese version of American political thriller television series Scandal.

The series will debut July 8, 2013 on WOWOW.

HAHA that quite suits doesn't it! Can't help to think about the band every time I watch the trailer of the show on tv lol. Weather Report seems like a... unique title, I must say. 

Thanks for the info!

Ewww Scandal (the show lol).  Of course, another interesting title and something I would look forward to listening to!  Thanks for the news!

omg really?! XDD
That's funny lol

It would've been better if it was tied in with the English version of the show. That way SCANDAL could have a little more exposure in the US >u>
But oh well. I look forward to this song (^u^)

Well that's a little on the nose...

Cool! Hope to hear this song soon~

Guess it's time for these two SCANDALs to be connected to each other. Aside from the usual scandals we see everyday, and another band having the same name, this TV show's title is included in the list of the other things that makes my search for SCANDAL a bit harder.

I'm actually more interested in the song rather than with the series though.

I also noticed in one of the sources, dramanavi.net, Haru's name is misspelled. Instead of HARUNA, it became HARUKA.

Does this mean the song will be a serious one? Well, I hope so.

I'm in Indonesia thinking of the tv series drama SCANDAL in Star World can be a great starting point for SCANDAL to go more International, and it just happen now. SOOOO EXCITED

I know this tv show, but I don't watch it. But I saw the promo for it often, and like many of us, I always think about the band.

So another new song in a few days? Well a short version of it i guess! Any other infos about it (single, b-side?)?

Also yeah they misspelled then name of our goddess HARUNA!! .rage. .mad.

^Haha! Sorry for being off-topic, but I suddenly remembered Haru's answer to "Please tell us one instance of a bittersweet episode where you "laughed it off" that you have experienced thus far." from BA: When "Haruka" went on sale, since the name had been gotten wrong a number of times, I decided to just keep smiling. .whistle.

I guess HARUNA and HARUKA are pre-destined to get interchanged/misspelled frequently...

@anchiel as i've read the article with haru's mispelled name i also remebered that thing..haha

looking forward to their new song =) i wonder if it will be a rock or mellow one since the title is mysterious..haha

OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am obsessed with that show!!! It's one of my all-time favorite show right now... It's a really great show, in case you haven't watched it... 
And now this news?!!! .dies. 


yeahh both of my favorites right now are named SCANDAL!!!

I'm not familiar with the show, but it looks like a great exposure to SCANDAL since people outside Japan could actually watch it. *oh, PH people please notice*

Expecting a mature song from them, like... "Kill the Virgin" !? haha

I saw this on youtube...

I think Haruna's voice sounds like it hurts a little...but the song sounds a little catchy. Can't wait to hear more of it.

 I think this preview is for their collab with ROBI, which is the b-side for their new single...

You're right...maybe he should put in the topic for the other single, Kagen no Tsuki (I think). But there's already a preview there too.

Any video of it? Can't wait to hear? 

Here's the video.  The song is so catchy  

 

@ elevenglass: Thanks for the video, but seriously the dubbing sucks! .wtf.
When the song started , I didn't realize it was Scandal. On the "yukkuri" part, Haruna sounded like a guy. LOL Anyway, the song sounds cool.

Here it's just the song without commentaries:

The new song sounds cool and catchy! I'm loving it. But yes, the dubbing kinda sucks. .hmmm.  Thanks for sharing the preview! Aaahh~

Oh.my.god... My heart stopped when Olivia Pope said "Scandal is.." I honestly thought she was talking about the band... I was like "omg.omg she knows them..." And then I heard the rest of what she was saying...   I guess I should never really watch or read anything when I've just woken up... 

 

But i'm still happy the 2 finally got intertwined... Happy fan here!!!
