Information

"MOON" is the 40th single released by Koda Kumi. Similar to "FREAKY" and "4 hot wave", the single has four tracks, however they are not all considered A-sides (only "Moon Crying" and "That Ain't Cool" were on her next album, TRICK). "Moon Crying" was used as the theme song for the Japanese drama Puzzle. "That Ain't Cool" is the long awaited collaboration with American artist Fergie of the Black Eyed Peas and was used as "music.jp" commercial song. "Once Again" was written by J-reggae artist PUSHIM while "Lady Go!" finishes off the single on a happy and poppy note. "Lady Go!" was used as "Visee" commercial song. The single reached #2 on the Oricon weekly charts and charted for 19 weeks. It sold 88,309 units in it's first week and the most recent figures show that it sold a total of 140,743 units. "That Ain't Cool " received a new music video with alternate shots and car scenes on Koda's seventh studio album, TRICK.
