Members:
* Watanabe Hideki (渡辺英樹; Bass, Precussion, Leader)
* Ryu Kouji (笠浩二; Drums)
* Sekiguchi Makoto (関口誠人; Guitar, Saxaphone)
* Taguchi Tomoharu (田口智治; Keyboard)
* Yonekawa Hideyuki (米川英之; Lead Guitar)
The band formed in 1982 when Watanabe wanted to start a band with Ryu and Sekiguchi as Coconut Boys. They performed at various events and live concerts later that year as they painted a image as the Japanese-made Beach Boys. They got their major debut a year later with the single "Candy"], the image song for a Yoplait Yogurts commercial.
Soon after, the band released their second single as they added Taguchi and Yonekawa to the band and changed their name to C-C-B. Their big hit came in January 1986 when they released the single "Romantic ga Tomaranai". Their summer single, "Lucky Chance wo Mou Ichido", was also a hit as the song gave the band's first appearance on the end of the year special Kouhaku Uta Gassen. They also won the Gold Award at the 27th Annual Japan Record Awards and the Best Ballad Song Award at the 1986's FNS Kayousai.
But, Sekiguchi left the group on 1987, causing the slow decline of the band's popularity. Two years later, C-C-B disbanded after their final live at Nippon Budokan. But, the band got back together later on. For example, all five members got back together for the final episode of the television program The Best Ten five years later. Also, the group's biggest hit, "Romantic ga Tomaranai", was used frequently in the dorama Densha Otoko, causing the group to became popular once again.
In 2008, the band got back together with only Ryu, Sekiguchi, and Watanabe as they played their first live shows at cities like Nagoya, Osaka, and Tokyo since their breakup.
2 Much I Love U
C-C-B Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I won't put no one above you
And there's some things that I gotta do
Cause I wanna start something new with you
I ain't like these niggas
That are only tryna fuck
Tryna make you my wife
But am I out of luck
How I'm ballin' like the bucks
In the playoffs
I be tryna shoot my shot
But I'm bricking open layups
In a box
Tryna open it
With keys that have no lock
Mind spinning fast
I think I need to fix my clock
Cause I'm hitting mock five
Going into overdrive
Looking deep into your eyes
Is it hazel or green
Cause the light keeps telling lies
Are we just friends
Or is there feelings in disguise
Are we just a short story
Or is there just a novel underlying
Are we staying grounded baby
We should be flying
I can see we have chemistry
But I forgot the science
Can't be as big as C.A.T
If you not a lion
But I'm never lying
I'll just make you happy
On the days that you are crying
Cause there's no denying
That we a good match
We are not together
But I'm getting attached
(I ain't really wanna tell you but)
(I'm getting attached)
Let me tell you how much I love you
I won't put no one above you
And there's some things that I gotta do
Cause I wanna start something new with you
(Something new with you)
So uncertain
Are you flirting
Don't know
I just need your light
Because i'm a shadow
I've been in the dark
You're my light no coincidence
I could picture us together
I don't have the images
You got me loving your vibe
As I look into your eyes
You got me falling for you
And I don't think I'll survive
I wanna steal your heart
Even though it isn't mine
Swear a girl like you
Is so hard to find
There ain't a second in the day
That you ain't on my mind
Ain't a second in the day
That you ain't on my mind
Let me tell you how much I love you
I won't put no one above you
And there's some things that I gotta do
Cause I wanna start something new with you
In the song "2 Much I Love U" by C-C-B, the singer declares his love for someone and shares his desire to start an exciting new chapter with them. He emphasizes that he won't put anyone else above this person and that he's not just interested in a casual fling - he wants to make them his wife. However, he acknowledges that he's not perfect and sometimes struggles to communicate his feelings effectively. He's unsure if this person feels the same way about him or if they're just friends with a strong connection. Despite his uncertainty, he's willing to take a chance and pursue a future with them.
The song opens with the singer admitting his strong feelings: "Let me tell you how much I love you / I won't put no one above you." He goes on to express his desire to start something new with this person and make them his wife. He contrasts himself with other men who just want to hook up and emphasizes that he's serious about a long-term commitment: "I ain't like these niggas / That are only tryna fuck / Tryna make you my wife / But am I out of luck / Really sucks." He acknowledges that he's not perfect and sometimes struggles to express himself: "Mind spinning fast / I think I need to fix my clock." He's aware that he may not be on the same page as this person when it comes to their relationship and wonders if their connection is purely platonic: "Are we just friends / Or is there feelings in disguise."
Throughout the song, the singer reflects on his feelings and doubts about this person. He's aware of their chemistry but unsure if it's enough for a long-lasting relationship. Despite his uncertainty, he emphasizes that he wants to make this person happy: "But I'm never lying / I'll just make you happy / On the days that you are crying / Cause there's no denying / That we a good match / We are not together / But I'm getting attached." The song ends with the singer expressing his love once again and his willingness to take a chance with this person: "Let me tell you how much I love you / I won't put no one above you / And there's some things that I gotta do / Cause I wanna start something new with you."

Don't know
I am unsure
I just need your light

I've been in the dark
I have felt lost or alone
You're my light no coincidence
You bring light and positivity into my life intentionally
I could picture us together
I can envision a future with you
I don't have the images
I do not yet have a clear vision or plan
You got me loving your vibe
I am attracted to your energy and personality
As I look into your eyes
I am entranced by your gaze
You got me falling for you
I am falling in love with you
And I don't think I'll survive
I feel overwhelmed and consumed by my feelings
I wanna steal your heart
I want to win your love and affection
Even though it isn't mine
Even though you are not obligated to love me
Swear a girl like you
You are an exceptional person
Is so hard to find
It is rare to find someone as amazing as you
There ain't a second in the day
I think about you constantly
That you ain't on my mind
You are always in my thoughts
(Something new with you)
I want to explore new experiences and opportunities with you
