In May, Natsukawa released Minamikaze, an EP of Okinawan covers songs. This added to the momentum. The single reached the top 50 in June and the top 20 in July.

One of these, “Warabigami (Yamatoguchi)” (童神～ヤマトグチ～ , Little God (Standard Japanese)) (a Misako Koja cover), was nominated for the Japan Record Award. It was Natsukawa’s biggest hit since Nada Sōsō, reaching the top 20.
In 2006, she released a compilation album, Rimi Natsukawa Selection, that was only for release in non-Japanese Asian countries. The album was a massive success in Taiwan, reaching #1 on the Taiwanese album charts.
Natsukawa was inspired by her Pony Canyon musical director to start a music production company. She asked for permission to return to the capital in 1999. Soon she was signed by Victor Entertainment and re-debuted the single “Yubae ni Yurete”. Her debut single was not charted, and she was enjoying similar success. Natsukawa sat and watched the Okinawan folk band Begin perform “Nada Soso” while she was watching the news broadcast from the 26th G8 Summit in Okinawa.
