j-nerd, in jpop, b-sides and c/w's are basically the same thing. c/w just means songs-besides-the-title-track. The poker face single says poker face c/w FRIEND on the cover. b-side isn't really a term in jpop (though a-side is for some reason, but really only on multiple a-side singles like A, H, and &... really a single is only ever considered a multiple a-side of all included songs are in the title or if the title is different from the first full song on the single).
As for a single's official title, it's better to go by what the spine or obi says, since that's not really using any design conventions. Alot of times the graphic designer will put the c/w song's name on the cover just cuz they think it'll look nice there. The spine is no-nonsense, artist and title. Maybe a nice font. that's about it.
The spine just says fairyland, then it's just called fairyland.
