This is Love was used as a CM song for the Nissin cup noodle campaign. The song reached #1 within a few of days in almost all the online music stores when it was made avalable to be purchased online prior to ULTRA BLUE's release. Utada herself is quoted to have said that this song is about expressing that "Love is like a mix of extremes; anxiety and peace."
On December 20th, 2006 iTunes Japan released a list of top downloaded singles and albums; This Is Love ranked at #9 making it the 9th most downloaded song for 2006.
This Is Love was also used as the opening theme for the anime Freedom Project.
