"Precious" reached a peak of #2 on the daily charts and #3 on the weekly charts. The following week, her single stayed high on the charts and was #3 for the second week in a row. Her sales jumped from 39,000 copies the first week to 44,000 copies the second week. In two weeks, it has already surpassed the sales of her last single, "Faith/Pureyes".

This single has been billed as a double b-side single due to the fact it has 2 b-sides.

On the half-yearly charts of 2006, "Precious" was the 2nd most-downloaded song, 3rd most-downloaded ringtone, 5th most-downloaded PV, and overall (combined ranking for all 3 categories) ranked 2nd.

The PV (promotional video) for the title track "Precious" was shot in New Zealand, where Ito and her staff stayed for 5 days.

Despite the song being released for more than two years, it managed to climb back up the charts, with a peak of 17.
