Information


Koishikute is Japanese R&B-turned-pop singer Koda Kumi's fifty-fourth single under the Avex sub-label Rhythm Zone. Initially, the song was to be released in early December, but was pushed back and released later that month. The single peaked at No. 4 on the Oricon Daily charts and took No. 7 for the weekly ranking. It remained on the charts for six consecutive weeks.[2][3]

The coupling track "Alone" was a cover of the song originally sung by Mayo Okamoto in 1996, making it the first time Koda Kumi has had a single with both a ballad for the a-side and the b-side since her release of "hands" in 2005.[4] Alone was later released on her second cover album Color the Cover.

"Koishikute" was certified gold for 100,000 downloads in January 2014.[5]


Packaging


The single was released in three editions:

The playbutton+goods edition came with the single mp3 in a button, a shopping bag and a towel with Koda Kumi's official fan club logo.


Promotions


The single was promoted as being as intense and with a similar message to one of her more famous ballads, "Ai no Uta" (2007).[6] On her official Facebook, the banner that was posted compared "Ai no Uta" to "Koishikute."[7]
