is my A Song for XX fake?
 
ive been looking at scans for A Song for XX...but none of them are the same as mine. especially the back of the case. on the scans, the picture is colored, but mine is black and white. please help:thud

If they are different than the scans, then yes, it's fake. I'm sorry to tell you. Did you buy it off of ebay or some other not legit site?

JesA 6th December 2005 05:47 PM

no i boght it on yesasia. hey would the fact that its the overseas version have anything to do with it?

ohsixthirty 6th December 2005 06:03 PM

if you bought it from yesasia it should be real then...thats really weird...

JesA 6th December 2005 06:13 PM

it has the avex logo on it and stuff...but....:thud grrr

What scans are you seeing where the back is in color? The CD cover & back ARE black & white.

Jennie Mae 6th December 2005 08:18 PM

Do you have any pics?

Delirium-Zer0 6th December 2005 08:32 PM

sayonara_ne: here are pictures of my japan version, and it's the real thing... http://database.ayu-mi-x.com/albums/asongforxx.html

and here are scans from divine ayu of the genuine OS version. Yours should look like this. http://ayumi.primenova.com/cdscans/c...asongforxx.jpg

Whatever scans you saw of the back being colored, chances are they were scans of a bootleg.

JesA 6th December 2005 10:43 PM

thanks for the scans Delirium_Zer0. i was starting to worry. so its the japan version with the colored back....*talking about yur pics on the site link*

lotusoka 6th December 2005 10:49 PM

I can't see the OS scan, its from Divine AYU and says hotlinked.

It looks to me like both are black & white except for the XX, which is orange... not sure where you're getting the color. They're both silvery though.

If you bought it from Yesasia it's legit. They only stock legit products.

^ Not always. There was a thread recently about a bootleg "best" album on YesAsia or something. I'm too lazy to search for it. =x

Do you mean this one?

Yarumi 7th December 2005 05:05 PM

omg... what is that best delux version 0_o... I though Yesasia only sold legal copies : /

Delirium-Zer0 7th December 2005 05:07 PM

They usually do... but I did get The Past & Other Side of Ayu from them in mid '01.

As a rule they don't stock bootlegs OF official releases, so no Miya Records copies of A BALLADS or anything like that. They do occasionally stock bootleg cds that aren't official releases (they might contain official releases, like how The Past & Other Side of Ayu contains the other side series & Nothing from Nothing), but if you buy a release that's part of her official discography there, it's the real thing.

Wait a minute, does that mean my Song for XX is bootlegged!? on the back the XX is orange. is not suppose to be? Gawd now i have to order it again. Mine as well get the pretty pony~pretty pony~pretty pony~ version since I have the money now...

HanabiChick 7th December 2005 11:31 PM

If you look at the pics posted above, in both versions the XX on the back is in orange :yes If your version has the same Avex logo, text etc. as one of those scans, then it's not a bootleg.

Delirium-Zer0 8th December 2005 02:53 AM

Read carefully before panicking, evolution. :)

evolution105 8th December 2005 08:22 PM

lol sorry everybody :( please don't hate me now. ........(my bad)

orangeland 8th December 2005 09:21 PM

you know what the best way is to tell if your CD is real or not?
take the actual disc and flip it over. along the ring that surrounds the innermost ring (where you place the CD into the CD player), you should be able to find the catalogue number of the disc. if it's not there, most likely its a fake.

-hope that helps!

kinix 9th December 2005 03:34 PM

Just look at the back of the CD for the ifpi crave and u'll be sure enough that ur copy is a original there's no need to look @ the cover @ all
