Utaite Myouri is Shiina Ringo's double CD cover album, and sold 397,000 units. The album reached #1 in Oricon Charts and charted for 9 weeks. This is technically her third album, though Shiina does not really count it as her third album. Songs on this album are sung in English, Japanese, German, Portugese and French. This album was released on the anniversary of the Shiina Ringo's debut single, [[Koufukuron]]. 'Utaite Myouri' translates to 'A Singer's Luck' (it should be noted that 'Utaite' is spelt with a very traditional word, and is comparitively rare compared to a more modern word for singer, 'Kashu'. Even the way it is spelt is outdated. The 'Kame-Pact Disc' is a reference to the fact that [[Kameda Seiji]] was the producer of it, and similarly the 'Mori-Pact Disc' was produced by [[Mori Toshiyuki]].
