Does this mean we could possibly get a very Loveppears-heavy setlist for CDL this year? So random but that trailer has me so excited!

I wonder why they never release like an unreleased song along with anniversary editions like this. I don't believe that she only recorded these 16 songs for this album. imagine how amazing it would be to have a new song recorded in that era.

Anyways having the legendary picture in such amazing quality alone is already worth this release. + it's a legendary masterpiece that never gets old.

Finally a proper official release of appears (Armin van Buuren's Sunset Dub), and also the iconic cover art without any text.

I am very curious about the packaging. If it is going to be released with the full vertical photo it will probably be a pretty large package. I am thinking it will resemble the old "long box" packaging that CDs used to be released in many years ago.
The number of tracks included is certainly generous but it would have been nice to include demos or unreleased tracks. Or perhaps a new track or remade track. I also wish that it was a blu-ray instead of DVD. But then the price would be even more unreasonable.
I have been wanting her to release anniversary versions of her past albums for years now. I wonder why A Song For xx was skipped over and if this is just the beginning of a 20th anniversary re-release series.
The high resolution Loveppears photo is a great gift by itself. I was able to pull it right from the avex website. I never noticed the slight sparkle of Ayu's makeup on her face before.

I guess from now on we will see a lot of those re-releases just like the labels do with other acts (Matsuda Seiko, Nakamori Akina, etc etc). I wasn't expecting that but YES for the iconic jacket being back again! Hope they do a nice billboard with the jacket again. <3

I guess I'm just not excited for re-releases...It's nice to have remastered tracks, but i can't deny the lack of excitement i am feeling

The remix was released also on the german appears single, so we've got that in 2005.

I like the cover art. It was great back then, it is still great and iconic.

But honestly, I don't really get why this is happening. Is it really going to sell well?
I found the A BEST 15th anniversairy just as... pointless.
