Thank gawd the lollipop one ISN'T the CD+DVD cover I probably wouldn't even buy it because of the bad cover, that's how picky I am hahaha. But yeah I'm looking forward to this release even though the 30s previews of the songs were nothing comparable to 'ALL FOR YOU'. 'Butterfly' SO should have been an A-side song.

i love the preview to GIRL TALK, and the photoshoot was awesome, it looks kinda retro 70s chic.

I just bought the Think of Me/No More Tears single used at a music store in LA (Only the booklet was messed up, the CD is fine). It's not as bad as the J-fan reviewer makes it seem. I mostly bought it because I love the cover. That store also had Never End, Can You Celebrate, LOVE 2000, PLEASE SMILE AGAIN, Trance Collection Vol.1 and Sweet 19 Blues w/ and w/o slipcase. They were all pretty good prices too!

It was about 3 minutes from the Japanese American Community Center by the theater...

Reviews at J-fan are almost always biased.
'think of me' is good, except for the part near the end where it sounds like Namie's... umm.. how do u say it... kinda like she forgot the melody and started singing faster while the music remained the same.

^ Totally agree.

K: Yep, that's one reason I don't read their reviews anymore.

I noticed a big difference between think of me (single/album version) and the Love Enhanced version. At first I thought my disc was messed up because the song sounds a lot different. I would have bought Love Enchanced if they had it, but this was the only thing I saw that I liked...

J-fan still hasn't reviewed DAI's Gates of Heaven. I already asked if they were going to and they said they had it but they were busy. Busy with what? They rarely update...

J-fan doesn't like Namie very much x_x. They gave I HAVE NEVER SEEN a 1, if that doesn't show musical ignorance, I dunno what does. They also gave M a 6 x_x.

Anyways, I like think of me, but the Love Enhanced version is tons better than the single mix IMO. =) it's a great ballad tho, but I have to also agree, the last bits of the single mix sound strange x_x.

J-fan reviews sounds as though they are written by 13 year olds randomly blabbering their opinions with a mate.

I just went and read that 'I HAVE NEVER SEEN' one you mentioned, we get even better reviews from those random yesasia customer ones.

Yay 'GIRL TALK' has it's own PV! I doubt it'll be on the CD+DVD version though. I'm thinking she'll have this one with JUST 'the SPEED STAR' PV so that we buy the more expensive version and when her new album comes out probably around December or Jan. she'll include a CD+DVD version which includes: 'ALARM', 'ALL FOR YOU', and 'GIRL TALK' PVs. OR She could just release a PV DVD haha I'm personally hoping for a new album with a PV DVD.
