Reincarnation

"Reincarnation" is a song by Japanese recording artist Ami Suzuki for her second greatest hits album, Ami Selection (2011). It was written by Emi Hinouchi and produced by Taku Takahashi. It was Suzuki's first collaboration with both Hinouchi and Takahashi. It premiered on February 25, 2009, as the lead single from the album. The CD and digital cover sleeve has a close-up of Suzuki hovering a GCI bubble. The DVD cover sleeve features a slightly altered version of it. It has been described as a dance and club song, with musical elements including electropop. Its lyrics celebrate Suzuki's career and music, and described elements of her day-to-day life. It received positive reviews, with praise for its composition and emotional lyrical delivery, and Suzuki's singing. It peaked at number 42 on the Japanese Oricon Singles Chart, with sales of somewhat over 4000 units there. The music video for "Reincarnation" was shot in Japan. It features Suzuki at her home; walking the streets; and in several shots, floating in water. Suzuki performed the song in her 29th Anniversary tour at the Liquidroom event. Background and release "Reincarnation" was written by Emi Hinouchi, and production, composing, and arrangement was handled by Japanese musician Taku Takahashi. It is Suzuki's first single to be handled by Takahashi, and her first song written by Hinouchi. However, "Reincarnation" is the only new track from Ami Selection that wasn't written by her; the following single "Kiss Kiss Kiss" was fully written by Suzuki. It was selected as the lead single from Ami Selection, and was released on February 25, 2009, by Avex Trax.
