[Kuroki Meisa] She wants to UPGRADE U! in a Wired Life state ~ Thread 6th

[niiwa]

Meisa is already recording a brand new song~

[AyusakiFan]

Wow, she's on a roll! I hope the new song is as unique as "One More Drama" and "Wired Life". At the rate she's going, we can probably expect an album this year. How many singles does she typically release before an album?

Three. She might be in a hurry in order to release an album and rape my wallet like she did last time with MAGAZINE Limited Editions. Which, for me, costed more than US$150 because I had to pay the brazilian stupid taxes over imported itens. -_-

[Beauty4123]

another song is in the works already?! but i'm not complaining, lol. hopefully it'll be for her next album.

[NintendoHTF1242]

I hope she makes another song like SEX. I like me some kinky Meisa.

So do I! But it might be weird to see her new fans (coming from Ao no Exorcist) listening to a sex song in theirs 8-12 years lmao.

If so, Meisa will be equivalent to what Koda used to the ones who listened to her songs in theirs 8-12, rofl.

[NintendoHTF1242]

Maybe Meisa can hump some bottles while she's at it

[AyusakiFan]

I hope not.

I asked CDJapan about the poster as a first press bonus and here is their answer..

Hi. Thank you for contacting CDJapan.

We made an inquiry, but the poster isn't
included as the first press bonus regularly.

http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=SRCL-7724

So, I believe that you perhaps are referring to the
exclusive bonus that Sony Music is offering on their
own site.

http://www.sonymusicshop.jp/m/item/i...=SRCL000007724

They sometimes offer an exclusive bonus to
try to promote their own site, and it won't be
possible for regular stores like us to obtain them.

I hope this reply helps to answer your question.

Too bad but why does HMV offer the poster then? that's odd.

At this time, I am not taking what this person says with a grain of salt. The poster is not an exclusive bonus for Sony Music as many of the online Japanese CD retailer websites such as Tower Records, HMV, and others list the poster as a first press bonus. In this regard, this person is obviously misinformed so I wouldn't credit this particular employee as a credible source of information. CDJapan only has the first press details listed as an external bonus so they currently do not have full details of what exactly the first press item is (which means they can't definitively tell us exactly if it's a poster or not at this time or it would be stated on the site). In my experience, this is not the first time CDJapan has been incorrect about their first press items so until they give specific details on their site about what it is, I'm going to assume it's the first press bonus poster like they've been offering for all of her other singles and album.

[Utena]

but why isn't it listed for the limited edition as well? I don't want to order the CD only just for the sake of having an extra poster lol.
I know that Neowing do send the extra poster though, it was alsomentionned in Meisa's staff blog, so I guess it could be possible for CDJapan to have it as well since it's pretty much the same.

edit http://www.sonymusic.co.jp/Music/Inf...i/info/110801/
only lists Neowing so I guess we'll have to wait lol.. Ahh I want to change my order again to HMV now lmao.

[KarenPang]

Since Neowing is stated on the link you have provided , it's safe to assume CDJapan will be sending out posters as an external bonus for Wired Life

Maybe CDJapan haven't update this information at their end ? I've seen it happening to other artistes I support where they took a while for external bonus items to be reflected on their website , with HMV Japan being real slow to me at times :x

It's only until I email and yell at HMV Japan that they get things settled & done XD

if all else fails , I will ask CDJapan personally about this matter tomorrow

I am unsure of why the other two editions of this single have a first press bonus and the limited edition doesn't. CDJapan may be behind in updating their information as all of other websites list a first press bonus for all editions and have already stated what it is. I experienced a similiar situation with another limited edition album I purchased from CDJ where it didn't list a first press bonus at all, even after the album was out. A few weeks after I received the album, I got a separate package from them containing a letter explaining to me that they received the first press bonus late and had to ship it to me separately. Coincidently, it was from another Sony artist. To this day, CDJ still never made any indication on the page for the item that it even had a first press (not even the "first press sold out" message). This is just another reason why I never put 100% trust in the information they provide. While they're usually correct, I've had enough experiences from them to know that their website doesn't always provide the latest or even correct information all the time.

[Utena]

I see. I never encountered such a situation in the past so I hope it'll be as you say
Thanks

i assume that the Sony artist you meant is Love.if yes,actually the extra bonus announced 7 days before the album release and CDJ didn't update the page BUT neowing did update the japanese site.and,Sony sent them the cds and bonus separately and the staff who is in charge in packaging didn't even aware about this until i received my parcel and asked them about it.this is why they send it separately.so,i think its the best to ask it in CDJ twitter

not really related to meisa XD :p

The situations may not be exactly the same but the points that I made still apply. CDJ's website doesn't always provide the most up to date information and in some instances, the employee's don't have 100% knowledge of what's going on either (just like for Love's album, you said that CDJ didn't update the page and the staff were a bit unaware of what was going on until you addressed them with information about the first press bonus). Either way, the situation with Meisa and Love aren't the only times where I've seen a lack of correct information on their end. It's understandable that mistakes happen, they're human and not robots. But I just wanted to bring awareness to the fact that situations like this do occur and that the best thing we can do is wait and see if they will release more information as the release date approaches.

[CHE.R.RY]

Wow I know I'm a little late! But another song? Yeee I can't wait !

[KarenPang]

I asked CDJapan via Twitter over the poster issue surrounding Wired Life & they confirm with me that a poster will be given for all 3 editions of Wired Life

For proof :p

My Tweets

@CDJapan I have a favour for you to help me if you don't mind , it's something about Kuroki Meisa's Wired Life single :O

@CDJapan http://t.co/JbwnMga will CDJapan be giving away a poster for all 3 editions of Wired Life ?

@CDJapan I'm quite sure it's a yes ? because I saw Neowing on that link so I want to verify with you on this matter , Ariasu !

CDJapan's responses to my tweets

@iamkarenpang Hi Karen! I appreciate you for the info Ariasu It seems like they forgot to contact us about it, but we'll update it soon

@iamkarenpang Yes, according to Sony Music's site, a poster is to be included with all 3 editions

so you can order the CD + DVD of Wired Life via CDJapan with ease now , Mylene x) & sorry don't mind the word Ariasu going on there hahaha
