- Information
4 hot wave is Koda Kumi's 32nd single, and was released in both CD+DVD and CD only versions. It is titled '4 hot wave' because it features four A-side tracks that will have four PVs to go with them. Ningyo-hime was described as being an "explosion-like rock number", while With your smile (theme song to the Nihon Terebi which aired during the 2006 Pride&Spirit Pro Baseball) has been described as an 'agressive dance tune'. As well as this, I'll be there (the 2006 Seabreeze song) has been described as a 'mid-tempo Summer tune', while JUICY (the Gem Cerey CM song) was described as a 'US-style R&B number'. The first press of the CD+DVD version includes an off-shot photo collection, and an access password to a special website featuring many pictures of Koda Kumi. Although this single was beaten in the weekly charts by KinKi Kids' Natsu Moyou, 4 hot surpassed them on all the other charts (daily, monthly, and yearly) selling 80,000+ copies in the long run.
4 hot wave was the #14 single of 2006 on the Oricon charts and the second highest by a female artist for 2006. Kaoru Amane's Taiyou no Uta outsold it by 90,000 copies.
