(miss)understood is Ayumi Hamasaki's 7th full-length studio album, released on New Year's Day 2006 (although many retail stores broke street date by releasing the day after Christmas 2005).
This album features tracks written by GEO of pop group Sweetbox. Their album, "Addicted", was released later and featured the original english versions of most of his contributions to "(miss)understood".
The initial pressings of the album included two photobooks—one for the CD version (entitled off my day), and another for the CD+DVD version (entitled on my way).
The DVD version included all PVs that were made for her 2005 releases (excluding my name's WOMEN)—STEP you, is this LOVE?, fairyland, alterna, HEAVEN, Bold & Delicious, and Pride. There was an alternative PV for Bold & Delicious (called the “Side story") released as well. Two new PVs were also included—Ladies Night and Rainy Day made their debut on the disc. Behind-the-scenes clips for STEP you, is this LOVE?, fairyland, alterna, HEAVEN, and Pride are also included.
It was recognized by the RIAJ as one of The Best 10 Albums of the Year for 2006 and by the IFPI as #4 on the list of top 10 selling albums in Japan of 2006.
