"Scorpio" is a single released by South Korean rock band TRAX. It was recorded and released in two versions: Japanese and Korean.
The single was produced by X Japan's Yoshiki, who also composed the music to the title track, and includes a cover of X Japan's "Tears" in either Japanese or Korean. Yoshiki later helped write the lyrics to TRAX's second Japanese single "Rhapsody".
The Japanese release included a 20-page color booklet. The Korean version has the additional track "Over the Rainbow" in two different versions.
