... I also agree. Not that I don't like the concept it's just ...
I really like Nana's picture though.

[mobius]

Huh?? Wow, not really O.C. style. Its more of an A.S. style. I was expecting some sort of cutesy concept. Anyways, still looking forward to the release.

Nice to hear about Jungah's solo project too.

[Queen Bee]

Hmm...I'm not sure how I feel about those images yet.

[Kouyou]

The girls look beautiful. I especially like Nana and Raina's pictures. Where can I pre-order this album?

[adantatu2]

[CoriKaru]

This is random but as a relatively new fan to AS I want to buy the first Japanese album and I was wondering if the first press limited edition is worth the money? Or should I just buy the CD+DVD or CD-only?

I'm sure what the price difference is but the first press contains footage of a Premium Live party, you get Playcards (no idea what they are) and one out nine trading cards according to wikipedia... I'm not sure if it's really worth the money but you get this njce extras and bonus footage But if -for example- the price difference is like 15$ i'm not sure if those extra contents are worth 15$...

Okay I admit, this is not my most helpful post

The price difference is more like $30. Thank you for your help, I'm still thinking about it...

FIRST ALBUM INFO from fyafterschool

Editorial Description:
The 1st album consists of hit songs and new songs, as well as famous composers such as Ailee’s ‘Heaven’ & NU’EST’s ‘Action’ composer, Iggy & Seo Young Bae combination, Big Bang’s ‘하루하루’, After School’s ‘Shampoo’ and etc’s Japan’s best composer Daishi Dance, hip hop’s pride with the unique and fresh lyrics, Buga Kingz’s Juvie Train, Narsha & Brown Eyed Girls’ composer east4A, and even hit lyricist Kim Ee-Na, take part in this Orange Caramel album.

Orange Caramel’s title song for this album ‘립스틱 (Lipstick)’ is an addictive song with a strong melody and outstanding sound also filled with Orange Caramel’s unique music style. Mixed with an unfamiliar genre, “Roman Electronic”, Orange Caramel’s electronic ‘립스틱 (Lipstick)’ gives an exciting impression with an upbeat saxophone and synthesizer sound along with the fresh lyrics about smearing lipstick on the guy they first met but play innocent while saying “omo omo’. This song is a combination of Orange Caramel’s bubbly, cutesy fresh voice, with cute choreography and receiving appraisal for the song’s perfect harmony.

Additionally the album also contains the unique and fresh tune and lyrics of ‘밀크쉐이크 (Milkshake)’, as well as solo songs with each member’s various charms.

Tracklist:
1.*Bubble*Bath
2.*밀크쉐이크 (Milkshake)
3.*립스틱*(Lipstick)
4.*아잉♡
5.*마법소녀
6.*아직…
7.*Superwoman
8.*One*Love
9.*샹하이*로맨스*(上海之戀)
10.*클라라의*꿈*
11.*눈을*감아*
12.*사랑을*미룰*순*없나요
13.*방콕시티*(2012*New*Recording)

(Editorial description translated by Ayu)*

Track 4 is Aing,
Track 5 is Magic Girl,
Track 6 is Raina's solo Still...,
Track 8 is from their Aing album,
Track 9 is Shanghai Romance,
Track 11 is Nana's solo from shanghai romance,
Track 12 is Raina's solo from their 1st mini

That's all I could gather. I guessing we have 5 new songs. 6 if u include the new version of Bangkok City

[maze]

I'm like whoa, really surprised with this concept. but they look amaaaazing I can't complain

[AyuHamasaki01]

They didn't give Lizzy a solo song?

[Utena]

you should watch unboxing videos on youtube, it'll probably help you decide

I have been, thank you. I'm trying not to watch the entire video(s), though, because I want at least a little of the album packaging to be a surprise should I choose to buy it.

[Kouyou]

I don't know if anyone else saw this and/or knows if it's official or not but I found this image of the styling of the Lipstick title on Tumblr.

I notice something with O.C. and A.S. title songs:

Shampoo - A.S.
Bubble Bath - O.C.
Eyeline - Nana Solo
Lipstick - O.C.

I understand what you mean, hate spoiling myself too
If you ask me, I'm not sure it's worth the money, packaging wise it's nice, but content wise.. the cards aren't that great (old photoshoots re-used, not much variety), the live is great though..
Whereas the regular CD+DVD first press has all the PVs, packaged in a sleevecase if you manage to get the first press edition which also comes with a photocard.. Depends what are your priorities I guess
