"Heart and Soul" is Japanese band AAA's 23rd single, and the lead single released before their fifth studio album, Heartful. The single was released on January 27, 2010, a month before the album.[1]
"Heart and Soul" was given two tie-ups: one as the ending theme song for the TBS Kantō area news show Niusuzansu, as well as being the music.jp TV commercial song.[1] The B-side "Two Roads" (a solo song sung by Mitsuhiro Hidaka) was written by former The Kaleidoscope/Ricken's vocalist Takumi Ishida, and was used as the insert song for the film Sayonara Itsuka.[1]
The song debuted at No. 3 in its first week, selling 33,000 copies.[2] It charted for a total of four weeks, with two more in the top 100 (at No. 30 and No. 87 respectively), before charting at No. 127 and then leaving the top 200.[2] As the single sold a total of 37,000 copies, it was extremely front loaded, selling 90% of copies in its first week.[2]
The song peaked at No. 15 on the Billboard Japan Hot 100, charting for three weeks before the single's release due to low-level airplay.[3] The song peaked at No. 31 on the RIAJ Digital Track Chart and only ranked for a single week in the top 100.[4]
