Nerve is the second indies single by BiS. It was previously an album track on Brand-new idol Society, but was released as a CD single after Terashima Yufu joined the group.
It is considered one of the signature songs of BiS (and later, the theme song of WACK as a whole) and has been re-recorded more than any other BiS track, featuring on the albums IDOL is DEAD, WHO KiLLED IDOL?, Uryaoi!!!, DJ MEGUMI'S BiS MiX (14 times in a row), Brand-new idol Society 2 and WACK & SCRAMBLES WORKS. It was also re-released as part of a double a-side with their (intended) final single, FiNAL DANCE / nerve.

Trivia[]
- Traditionally, the song was performed multiple times in a row, sometimes even being the only song to be performed in a gig. BiSH's "BiSH: Hoshi ga Matataku Yoru ni" and GANG PARADE's Plastic 2 Mercy follow the same pattern.
- The design of the "nerve" packaging is censored due to copyright issues, incorporating what is implied to be a spin on the logo of "NERV" as featured in the anime franchise Evangelion.
- The original version of "nerve" was arranged by Schtein&Longer, however following his departure from SCRAMBLES in 2015, the second generation of BiS performed a noticeably different arrangement of the song. Despite this, Mameshiba no Taigun would later cover "nerve" using the classic Schtein&Longer arrangement.
- I'm coming!! was originally a Pour Lui solo from her album Minna no Pour Lui.
