Information
"Movin' on Without You" was featured in a US commercial for the Nissan Maxima.
"B&C", the b-side of the single, was re-mastered into a version that has Utada's voice in auto-tune, and has a "sudden car stop screech" background, all in the song's last part, making it more "cleaner" for the First Love album (now known as the "Album Version") than the version found in this single.
