The Next Decade is the 35th single by Japanese singer Gackt. It was released on August 11, 2009. The song blends hard rock and symphonic rock and lasts 13 minutes and 44 seconds. It was released by Avex Entertainment, with lyrics by Shoko Fujibayashi and music/arrangement by Ryo. The track was the theme song for the Kamen Rider Series film Kamen Rider Decade: All Riders vs. Dai-Shocker, where Gackt plays Riderman. It came out as a CD single and as a CD+DVD package that includes the music video. The theme centers on war (Ikusa). The music video was later included in Stay the Ride Alive in a special memorial single version, a Digipak with a third disc and a booklet about Gackt's work with Kamen Rider Decade. On its first day, the single reached number 3 on the Oricon Daily Charts, selling about 13,000 copies.
