Trivia

 * "Kanashiki Heaven" was originally a coupling track for ℃-ute's 19th single "Aitai Aitai Aitai na". The reason behind the release of the single version was due to the fact that it is a very popular song that is sung during ℃-ute concerts.
 * The Single Version of Kanashiki Heaven will be re-arranged. The mains vocals still remain the same, but the voices of Yajima, Nakajima and Hagiwara will now be included as a unison.
