"Stuck on You" is Yuna Ito's fourth single since her debut. This is her first single since her largely successful May 2006 single "Precious" and her first single in which the main track is not a ballad.
Both this single and her following single, "Losin'", were limited to 70,000 copies each. "stuck on you" was described as "hot" single for the summer while "losin'" was a "cool" single for the fall. For those who bought both singles, they would receive a special invitation to Yuna Ito's first tour, an invitation-only tour called "Yuna Ito 1st Invitation".
The B-side to this single is "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'", a Nancy Sinatra cover.
While the A-side, "stuck on you," had no commercial endorsements, the B-side, "These boots are made for walkin'," was featured in the Japanese car company Daihatsu's CM for their new car called the COO.
The promotional video for "Stuck on You" is the first clip in which we see Ito dance. We can see Ito in a big, fluffy skirt and a corsage with 4 back-up-dancers in a huge room. The 2nd location is a little room, with Ito having curly hair and a violet dress on, and her dancers playing instruments in the background. Another scene is Ito in a yellow dress, lying on a pink carpet, while speaking with a friend on the phone. The last location is a couch with a mirror in front, in which Ito dives at the end. "to be continued..." ends the PV and it will be continued in the "losin'" PV.

(Miss)understood is the seventh studio album by Japanese singer-songwriter Ayumi Hamasaki, released January 1, 2006 by Avex Trax. Hamasaki acted as the album's sole lyricist, as she had on all of her preceding albums. (Miss)understood marked new musical directions for Hamasaki: she explored new influences such as funk and used gospel choruses in some of the songs, foreign to her previous works. This was the result of her having heard compositions by Geo from Sweetbox and asking him for his works; subsequently, Hamasaki rewrote the lyrics to fit (Miss)understood. Lyrically, the album was a departure from her previous work, My Story, which had been primarily autobiographical.

Initially planned to be a triple A-side single, it features two new songs, "Blue Bird" and "Beautiful Fighters". "Blue Bird" was the CM song for Zespri Gold Kiwifruit while "Beautiful Fighters" is featured on a Panasonic D-snap and D-dock commercial. A rearrangement of "Ladies Night", featured in her (Miss)understood album, called "Ladies Night " is also featured on this single. A trance remix to "Blue Bird" is also on the single. On her official website, she describes "Blue Bird" as being a summer song, and "Beautiful Fighters" as being a song praising women.
