GO FOR IT, BABY -Kioku no Sanmyaku- (GO FOR IT, BABY -キオクの山脈-, GO FOR IT, BABY -Mountains of Memories-) is the fiftieth single by B'z, released on April 4, 2012. It is the first single to be released following the conclusion of their previous album tour B'z LIVE-GYM 2011 -C'mon-. As was the case with "Sayonara Kizu Darake no Hibi yo" in 2011, "GO FOR IT, BABY -Kioku no Sanmyaku-" served as a theme to a Pepsi NEX commercial. Additionally, the single was first performed live during the Pepsi NEX presents B'z PREMIUM LIVE shows and was included as the second song in the setlist for the proceeding North American tour, B'z LIVE-GYM 2012 -Into Free-.

Production for the new single was already underway in November 2011. Koshi stated in an interview for Be With! that he did not put much thought into it being the band's fiftieth single. As a result, there wasn't initially something special in mind during the initial preparation. Ultimately, it was decided that Tak would be taking on a guest vocalist role in addition to his usual duties. Koshi worked very closely with Tak when writing the lyrics for the part, which marked the first occasion in which Tak served as a main vocalist in a B'z song.

The B-sides "Honoka Naru Hi" and "Ryuusei Mask" were drawn from the leftovers that did not make it onto 2011's studio album C'mon. According to Tak, there are many unused songs that didn't make the record. These two were chosen in particular because they provided balance to the A-side of the single.
