"NEVER EVER" is Hamasaki Ayumi's 21st single. It was used as the Kirin Beverage "Supli" CM song. The single was released three weeks before her first best album, A BEST.

It sold 756,980 copies, becoming the #16 single of 2001. It was certified Double Platinum by RIAJ.
The third track SEASONS "H-H remix" is used in almost every concert before a special performance. In 2007, due to the popularity of the song, it was released as a digital single and reached #3 in the mu-mo downloads chart.
