The B-side, "Taiyō ga Kureta Present," was also written by Misia, co-composed by Misia and Mits Ishibashi, and produced by Ishibashi.[5] The song was used in commercials for Live One by Sumitomo Life, starring actress Nanako Matsushima.[8] The single also includes a Joe Claussell remix of the digital single "Shinin' (Nijiiro no Rhythm)."
