Kansuigyo begin with another interpretation of above-mentioned successful song, which features more rock-oriented arrangement and her listless vocals.

Lyrics of "Keisha (The Incline)", the song which described melancholy of a solitary elderly woman who are walking on steep slope, was evaluated literarily and had been listed in a textbook on the Japanese language around the 1990s.

The album spent the number-one spot on the Japanese Oricon chart for six-week, and became the country's best-selling LP of that year.
