For the version of this CD released in Japan, a translation of the English lyrics is included, but there are lots of places where meanings are lost in the process of translation.

If I suddenly disappear from the music world, you might see Hikaru Utada working as a helper at some inn in Atami.

No one told me I had to make something that would sell, but I personally want everyone to like my music.

People do ask me if I think I can make it in the States.

I just want people to see that I do my own stuff, that I'm not stupid, and I can make fun of myself.

Since I was doing all of it myself, I had to decide where I wanted to go with the songs, how to proceed with the chords, if the sound was alright, and all that detail on my own.

I get strangely obsessed about the cleanliness of my house.
