Hamasaki's first album displays a more youthful, innocent sound than any of her future releases. The focus is not on slick production, beats, or sounds here, but mostly on the lyrics and melodies. The unusually personal nature of the lyrics on songs such as "POWDER SNOW" helped put this album at the top of the Oricon chart, even though none of its singles accomplished that feat.
