- Information
"Step Up LOVE" is DAOKO's fourth single. It was released in three editions: a limited-edition CD+DVD version, and two regular editions with differing second tracks and cover art. The title track is a collaboration with singer-songwriter and producer Okamura Yasuyuki--he and DAOKO wrote the lyrics together, and Okamura also produced, composed, and arranged the song. The regular edition B version of the single contained a new song by Okamura as well. The title track was used as the ending theme for the anime Kekkai Sensen & BEYOND. First-press bonus items for the single included various goods for the anime, and stickers with the CD jacket designs. The bonus you would receive differed based on the store from which the CD was purchased.
The lyric booklet of the song lists "Vocal: DAOKO, Whatever: Okamura Yasuyuki" perhaps referencing the multiple roles he provided in the creation of the song.
The single peaked at #8 on the Oricon charts, one rank higher than her previous single, but despite the higher starting chart position it has so far sold less overall, at least in terms of physical sales.
