Details edit

"Kubitsuri-dai Kara" was released as part of The Blue Hearts' fourth album, Bust Waste Hip, which had been released during the previous year on September 10, 1990, though the arrangement of the song is slightly different.

"Cinderella (From the Ashes)" (シンデレラ(灰の中から) Shinderera (Hai no Naka Kara)) was written by Junnosuke Kawaguchi, the band's bassist. Though the band's vocalist, Hiroto Kōmoto, sings most of the lyrics, Kawaguchi sings during the slow tempo. This song was featured in Noriyuki Higashiyama's 1991 film, Maji! (本気! Really!).
