The vocals featured in this song is sung by Mizushima Kana from one of Nagao's side project artists I-lulu.
Dai said that he left it as a demo because he felt that something was missing in the song. Despite their success, Do As Infinity wanted to show their fans that they had not forgotten them.
The next single, " Yesterday & Today " was chosen as the theme song for the drama series Nisennen no Koi, which starred popular actors Miho Nakayama and Kaneshiro Takeshi and was given the primetime slot. The c/w-track, "Raven", was used as the ending song to the horror movie Uzumaki, which gathered more mainstream audiences for the band.

In August the band participated in Avex's A-nation tour, performing in eight venues all over Japan. Do As Infinity's fourteenth single , " Shinjitsu no Uta ", was released in October, and sparked the beginning of a new project for the band. "Shinjitsu no Uta" was also chosen to be the fifth ending theme for InuYasha.
