This new album will include four brand new songs with a total 13 songs.
One of a tracks, "ONLY YOU", is the first all English lyrics song from the singer. The recording took a place in Los Angeles, and is a medium up-tempo number with a catchy melody.

Amuro stated, "The album has been created to be enjoyed by everyone and enhance their mood. From this album, "ONLY YOU" has been picked up as the WOWOW's European football theme song, so I'm honored."
For the edition with CD+DVD, a total of 11 MVs will be included, the largest number of in the history of her albums.
