If you're wondering, the RE B-side is a cover of Tanpopo's Koi no Shichaimashita!

a press conference for "Dream Morning Musume" a reporter asked first generation member Iida Kaori if it was different for her being in a idol group now that she's a mother, compared to back in the old days.

Kaori simply replied back with "Yeah... right... It's very fun now". Kaori had given birth to a baby boy on January 22, 2008 but he died that same year on July 27th due to renal failure.
