Best Finger 25th Anniversary Selection (ベスト・フィンガー~中森明菜25周年記念セレクション, Besuto Fingā ~ Nakamori Akina 25 Shūnenkinen Serekushon) is a compilation album by Japanese entertainer Akina Nakamori, released through Utahime Records and Universal Sigma on January 11, 2006 to commemorate Nakamori's 25th anniversary. The album consists of the singles " Akai Hana", " Hajimete Deatta Hi no Yō ni", and " Rakka Ryūsui", plus self-covers of her classic singles from the Warner Pioneer era. [1]
The album cover features Nakamori's handprint. The first edition of the album was available in five different colors. [1]
To commemorate Nakamori's 25th anniversary, Universal Sigma launched a mobile phone campaign from January 11 to 24. Fans sent messages to Nakamori's hotline; the winning messages were selected to be read by Nakamori herself, and campaign winners received autographed goods. [2]
The album peaked at No. 29 on Oricon's weekly albums chart and charted for eight weeks. [3] It sold over 16,000 copies. [4]
