Conception


The album was originally titled Juju Sings Beautiful Woman.[2] After the album's announcement on August 4, a questionnaire was put up on Juju's website, asking fans which songs they wanted to hear Juju cover.[2] Despite this, four songs had already been chosen for the album, "Gips," "Hello, Again (Mukashi Kara Aru Basho)," "Last Kiss" and "Time Goes By."[2]

The album is Juju's second disc of covers, after the She Sings... second disc of her previous album Juju, which featured primarily covers of Western songs in English.[3]


Promotion


"Last Kiss" was originally released in February 2010, as one of the A-side tracks of the four A-side single "Sakura Ame/Ready for Love/S.H.E./Last Kiss."[4]

A cover of My Little Lover's "Hello, Again (Mukashi Kara Aru Basho)" sung by Juju was announced as a song used in an adverstising campaign for the Sony Alpha digital camera on June 4.[5] The song was released digitally on June 16 as a ringtone and on June 23 as a full-length cellphone download,[6][7] where it was extremely successful digitally, reaching #1 on the RIAJ Digital Track Chart.[8] Due to this popularity, it was released as a physical single a month later, where it reached #15 on Oricon's physical charts.[9]
