- Information
First Love is Utada Hikaru's third single. First Love was used as the theme song for the dorama Majo no Jouken, starring Matsushima Nanako and Takizawa Hideaki. This song is a popular ballad to sing among karaoke-goers in Japan. This single was released in two versions: an 8cm single as well as a standard 12cm single. Originally, different versions of the same product were given different placings on Oricon charts. The 12cm single reached #2 on Oricon charts while the 8cm version reached #6. Both versions stayed in the charts for 13 weeks. The 12cm sold 500,890 units and was the #42 single of 1999, while the 8cm version sold 303,430 units and was the #72 single of the year. The sales of the First Love singles are lower than the prior single sales because this single was released after the First Love album. However, if the sales total of both versions of the single were added together, this would give the single 804,320 sales, which would have made it the #18 single for 1999. This single reached #26 on World Charts for single airplay, and reached #20 for sales.
