Best: First Things (stylised as Best ~first things~) is the debut greatest hits album by Japanese singer Koda Kumi. Rhythm Zone released it in a variety of formats on September 21, 2005. The album is divided into two discs, each containing a single released by Koda between her 2000 debut with "Take Back" and her most recent single, "Hot Stuff" in 2005. The second disc contains four new singles: "Butterfly", "Flower", "Promise", and "Star", as well as a bonus track, the solo version of "The Meaning of Peace".
CDJournal, a Japanese music magazine, praised Best: First Things for highlighting Koda's musical repertoire and vocal performance. It debuted at number one on the Oricon Albums Chart and charted for more than 150 weeks. The Recording Industry Association of Japan (RIAJ) certified the album double million for exceeding two million units sold, and holds as Koda's best-selling album. Before embarking on her 2005 First Things concert tour in Japan, Koda hosted a special event at Shibuya Station in which fans recreated the dress she wore on the album's cover.
