General Information
- First "Best of" album; it is part of a duo, the other album ORANGE was released simultaneously.
- One million sales have been recorded for both albums ORANGE and RANGE together.
- This album brought up sales for "Champione" and ИATURAL for the first time since they were released; it also increased overall Orange Range album/single sales.
- RANGE is the ballad side of Orange Range, while ORANGE is the "techno and rock" side.
- It was advertised as the "5th Anniversary Album", but the band's major debut was in 2003, which is four years ago from the time this album was released. Furthermore, the indies era started in 2002, which is over five years ago from this album's release. Either way, the five year anniversary is incorrect.
- Yamato's credit on this album is listed as "Won't you make a basketball team with me? + Forget about my hair, what am I to you!! VOX". This credit is listed for both albums.
- All songs on this album have been remastered. The album was also re-released in Blu-spec CD format on September 9, 2009.
- Purchasers of both albums simultaneously would receive free Orange Range goods such as the "Range Bag".
- It should be noted that besides "UN ROCK STAR" (ORANGE), every song on both albums is recorded from the album it came from unless otherwise specified.
