WISH Kimi o Matenakute (ＷＩＳＨ　君を待てなくて^?, WISH I Can't Wait for You) is the song used in Remix 5 in Rhythm Tengoku. It was performed by Soshi, written and composed by Tsunku♂, and arranged by Koichi Yuasa.

Soshi as depicted in Remix 5

The song was released as a single under the name Wish ~Kimi o Matenakute~ (Wish〜君を待てなくて〜^?, Wish ~I Can't Wait for You~) on August 12, 2006.

The song's appearance in Rhythm Tengoku inspired Soshi and guitarist Leo to form the visual-kei group Watashime Slug, who then released a new arrangement of the song (simply titled "WISH") in the album Juuryoku (「重力」^?, Gravity) on August 22, 2007. In the arcade version, which released around the same time, the on-screen credit for Soshi in Remix 5 was updated from 田中　総史 (Soshi Tanaka^?) to 総史(ワタシメスラッグ) (Soshi (Watashime Slug)^?).

A cover of the song by Naho Koumura was uploaded on the Tsunku♂ Entertainment Channel on February 18, 2025, as part of the ART×SOUND LAB project. It uses the original arrangement, with new guitar work by O-RI mixed in.

Japanese (日本語^?)

君を待てなくて　今夜さよなら
もっと愛しあいたかった
孤独な夜が　幸せだった頃を
たくさん想い出させる

この街で出会って激しく恋をした

戸惑う事も無く抱きしめ合ってた

それは気まぐれだね
すれ違ってく想い

いつの間にか冷たい
キスをしていた

夢がかすんで行く
君がかすんで行く
熱い熱い
胸の痛み
我慢できないね

君を待てなくて　今夜さよなら
もっと愛しあいたかった
孤独な夜が　幸せだった頃を
たくさん想い出させる

君を待てなくて　今夜さよなら
二人夢つかみたかった
いつもの駅が　幸せだった頃を
寂しく想い出させる

Translation

I can't wait for you Goodbye tonight
I wanted us to love each other more
The lonely nights Were our happiest
Reminds me of so many things

We met in this town We fell madly in love

Without hesitation We hugged each other

It's a whim
Thoughts passing by us

Before I knew it
We were kissing coldly

My dreams are getting hazy
You are getting hazy
So hot So hot
The pain in my chest
I can't stand it

I can't wait for you Goodbye tonight
I wanted us to love each other more
The lonely nights Were our happiest
Reminds me of so many things

I can't wait for you Goodbye tonight
We wanted to find our dream
The usual station We had happy times
Reminds me of how much I'll miss you

Somewhere in this town
Is that you crying?

Or are you walking with
nothing to show for it?

The stars are so fickle
They are so sparkly

Before I knew it
You looked fine

My love is getting hazy
My love is getting hazy
So hot So hot
Just like that day
I want to hold each other

I can't wait for you Goodbye tonight
