The album was never released commercially in the US, due to internal problems with the label EMI. It was only available to music industry insiders. The album was released in Japan on January 28, 1998; the album failed to chart on the Oricon weekly charts. After the huge success of Utada's First Love, the album was re-released on March 31, 1999 and peaked at #2 on the Oricon charts with 702,060 copies sold.
