Traveling is the ninth single from Utada Hikaru. It was used as the DoCoMo FOMA CM song. The PV for traveling was directed by Utada's ex-husband, Kiriya Kazuaki (who also shot the photography and helped with the art direction), and is the second of the famous Kiriya Trilogy of Utada promotional videos. This is the second of Utada's singles to have a DVD Single. The single reached #1 on Oricon Singles charts and charted for 21 weeks. This single sold 856,000 units in Japan and became her fourth single to chart two weeks at #1 on the Oricon Singles charts. The single charted for 21 weeks. This single became the #2 single of 2002 in Japan. An interesting fact about Traveling is that Utada never performed it live on TV (except for in the SMAP x SMAP medley) for unknown reasons. The pronunciation guide on the single gives 'traveling' as 'Toraveringu (トラヴェリング)', and will be pronounced this way by the average Japanese speaker. This single, as well as FINAL DISTANCE, Hikari and SAKURA Drops / Letters, strangely did not chart in the world charts airplay charts; though it did reach #51 on the sales charts. Makihara Noriyuki covered Traveling on his Listen To The Music 2 album. The most recent figures (May 26, 2006) show that the singe sold 856,140 units in total. Track ListingCD Single
