Behind the Scenes

  • A music box shown at the beginning of the single's promotional video is playing the "Blue Danube Waltz".
  • The single's promotional video is the first to show Utada playing an instrument, the piano, as she sings. She was credited for playing the acoustic piano in the song in the single's booklet and also in the Ultra Blue booklet, although she has not played any instruments on her live performances of "Dareka no Negai ga Kanau Koro". (She can also play the guitar; this is shown in the video for "Keep Tryin'," and she has also performed "Devil Inside" while playing the guitar.)
