Trivia[]
- In the 1980s the normal procession was the debut single was recorded long before the first album is created. However, Prologue (Jomaku) was completed before the release of Nakamori's first single. As a result, the album was given to several students at a local high school before its release and a vote was casted on what should become the first and second singles. The options were slow motion, Anata no Portrait, Ginga Densetsu, T-Shirt Sunset and Jouken Hansha. The song with the highest recommendations from the students was slow motion with Anata no Portrait in second place. Therefore these were the songs slated as the first two singles. The staff took the risky decision to debut Nakamori with a ballad, but also included the more upbeat Jouken Hansha as a B-side.[1] However, due to the lack of success with slow motion, Anata no Portrait's single release was cancelled, and Shoujo A was released in its place.
- Before Okada Yukiko debuted as a singer, she sang the main track on Star Tanjo!
