Information

"Morning Coffee" is the official first single from the Hello! Project group Morning Musume. The single was released in 1998 in a 8cm format and was reissued as a 12cm CD in 2004 as part of the Morning Musume EARLY SINGLE BOX and included a previously unpublished track. An individual edition of the 12cm single was made available in 2005.

The original version of the title track (as seen on ASAYAN) had Iida Kaori performing the main vocals, but Tsunku later changed the main vocalist to Abe Natsumi.
