I really like the packaging of the Limited Edition, but the price is quite high in JP version...

TW press comes out early March in CD+DVD version and CD+DVD+photobook version

[Dream]

the package is beautiful! YG did something like that for G-Dragon's album and BIGBANG's Tour DVD and it's amazing too.

and The back cover is gorgeous. [2] OMG that picture!

I missed my CDJ package today... >_< Sometimes I wish FedEx would just leave my stuff at the door and walk away like UPS does...

FedEx will leave your package, you just have to leave a note on your door (with a signature) asking them to do so. I do it all the time, b/c I am not usually home when they drop by that early in the morning.

...This would have saved me so much headache if I had known sooner. I hear there is a barcode you can stick on your door for the drop off guy to scan. Its good, so your neighbors don't get funny ideas about stealing your signature.

anyone here ordered the CD+DVD regular? I'm still wondering if I should get the booklet one or not..

[taskinillusion]

Sometimes I wish I wasn't a mod so I could say what I really thought.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and have the ability to express their opinion as long as you're not artist-bashing or fan-bashing. Some of what has been said could have been said differently so it didn't look like a non-Kuu fan was just here to put down the fans who liked something that someone else didn't.

[happiholic★]

You can't definitively call something trashy. That is totally subjective. Going back to Courtney Stodden, I for sure think she's trash. But, I'm sure she feels differently. I'm sure she thinks she's hot and "vivacious" or something.

I don't even like the album and I don't think its trashy. Just boring. But, again, that's my opinion

[inspire_rmx]

i'm so in love with this album. love 情熱 and 今宵月のように

[kaled kalil]

Oh God no, this package.... I hate those things more than digipak.

I think people are getting afraid of saying their opinions about the album right now lol it's not that people here can't accept other opinions, but how things are said. Its like going to Ayu's thread and start talking SHE'S SUCH A **** ON PARTY QUEEN COVER, WHAT A B****, you know?

Btw, I don't think that making a cover more appealing is something bad at all, I think that catching a new audience with the covers, even young girls and boys that wasn't born at the time of the original tracks, is something great. I always tend to go look for the original version to see how much the artist changed it.

And I know how hide's family is with his things and memories, so I'm pretty sure that someone of them is happy with the cover, and if it wasn't they won't let her release this song at all.

[Minttulatte]

I think some people should learn to say their opinions here in a way it doesn't hurt anyone because that's how messages are easily misunderstood and drama will occur. :p

And I love that back cover for Color the Cover. It's awesome!

[Gustavopc]

Color the Cover debuted at #5 on Oricon (#3 sold 16k copies)

[Minttulatte]

Maybe those sales will rise soon. :3

[thinkingoutloud89]

strange how people are stating the autotune as one of the bad things and it is only present in two songs, of which one is an electropop song (at least now). I think they did a wonderful job with the arrangements and made those classy songs fitting for her rather then using the original arrangements. That way she does not have to live up to those and can do it in her style. This album reflects every aspect of Kuu-chan from her last few albums and like always, they will be even better live.

[AyuHamasaki01]

Does anyone have HQ textless covers of Color the Cover?

[Klauser_Bateson]

Quick question about Dou ni mo Tomaranai. Around the 1:45 mark, the song stops for like a quick second, then continues. Is that supposed to happen?

Also, wow is the song HELLA SHORT. Still like it though.

I find the cover album pretty decent. Aside from Lovely and Alone, I like all the songs she covered.

[tokyoxjapanxfan]

I much prefer her soulful renditions of the songs from Eternity.

All of the songs on that album are Kuu, but they're done in a much better way imo.

However, there was also a much better song selection. I don't really like any of the original songs from CTC, and so Kuu's versions didn't really excite me to begin with.

But, that's just me. These versions are still Kuu, just... a different side of her. I prefer the other side, I guess.

[happiholic★]

Reading the comments, I've come to wonder, do people think that because the genre of the song is electro that automatically makes it soulless crap? And that only rock can have meaning?

[Mimichild]

Color the Cover is a good album but I still think the PV's are cheap. Pink Spider is like the hybrid of DDD + Because of you while Shake Hip! is showgirls + Inside Fishbowl x (ECSTASY)-Love Me Back. -__-

I actually defriended a girl everywhere for making comments like this.

ugh I just couldn't stand her anymore.


Anyway, I wonder if anyone has seen the complete version of Pink Spider (that we know of lol)
