"60s 70s 80s" received an extensive promotional tie-in campaign with its music videos doubling as commercials for Vidal Sassoon's line of hair care products. American costume designer Patricia Field and hair stylist Orlando Pita were brought on as creatives.
The single solidified her comeback following the success of her eighth studio album, Play (2007), released nine months prior. "60s 70s 80s" became her first number-one single in nine years on the Oricon Singles Chart and her tenth overall. Individually, "New Look" charted at number-one on the then newly-established Billboard Japan Hot 100, while "What a Feeling" peaked at number 28.
