Trivia

  • Yonezawa Rumi and Hirajima Natsumi's last single.
  • Second AKB48 single to have 18 Senbatsu members. The First being Kaze wa Fuiteiru.
  • This is the sixth AKB48 single with an English name. The first one being BINGO!, the second one being River, the third being Heavy Rotation, the fourth one being Beginner and the fifth being Flying Get.
  • This single includes the exact same Members as the Senbatsu used for Kaze wa Fuiteiru, except for Maeda Atsuko being the only center.
  • The PV is like a short graduation drama.
  • The music video is 34-minutes long, making it the longest PV and the first to be 34-minutes. The second-longest PV Flying Get was 18-minutes long.
  • A different arrangement of GIVE ME FIVE! is used in the AKB48 theatre performances. It is fully live with drums, two guitars, bass, percussion and one keyboard. The keyboard plays the brass parts from the record. AKB48 members play the instruments where they can, and if no instrument-playing member is available, someone from the AKB48 staff fills in.
  • This song is the first AKB48 song to feature the members playing live instruments. The senbatsu members learnt their instruments in secret for six months before the song's unveiling.
  • The song debuted at the final day of AKB48's 2012 Request Hour with a short video sequence showing the senbatsu members playing instruments followed by a fully live performance of the song by Baby Blossom.
  • The first AKB48 single to include non-Japanese member.
