Nakatomi began at the end of 1995 with the release of "Free", which spent 6 weeks in the Dutch Top 40, peaking at number 17.[1] The next single, "Children of the Night", was released May 1996, spending 11 weeks in the Dutch charts, peaking at number 2.[2] "Children of the Night" also charted in the UK Singles Chart at number 47 in 1998 with a re-release peaking at number 31 in 2002.[3] The final single, "Sing", was released toward the end of 1996, charting at number 5 in the Netherlands.[4]

In June 2019, "Children of the Night" was chosen as Gateshead F.C.'s official walk-out music for the 2019/20 National League North football season.
