This single was re-released on February 28, 2001, featuring five new tracks. The single was re-released for the fact that it was initially released in 1999 only in the 3" CD format which was being replaced by the new standard "maxi" CD format. The single was re-released in the standard maxi format for wider compatibility.
Depend on You was also remixed and released in Mirrorcle World for her 10th anniversary of chart-topping singles.
The music video for "Depend on you" was directed by Muto Masashi. It depicts Hamasaki singing while on a "journey" of sorts – a road is shown, and she sings at various natural locales, including a mountain and a pond.
