"~papillon~" ("パピヨン〜papillon〜") is the 3th single of J-pop singer, Hitomi Shimatani under Avex Trax. The title track is a Japanese remake of Janet Jackson's song "Doesn't Really Matter". The lyrics are often confusing to translate, especially if you aren't familiar with foreign languages, due to the many languages intermingled in it. The title, "papillon", is a French word meaning "butterfly". Throughout the lyrics, specifically the chorus, Chinese and even Tagalog (a Philippine language) are used.
