I'm surprised they didn't put SUKI da yo, AMOR, I believe and Wishing Well in the package as well, I wonder if she's keeping them for a possible studio album in the future?
And it's nice we're having LISTEN TO MY HEART, I guess it's the first time she's re-recording it? I just wish she picked more unexpected songs though. We got 3 songs from OUTGROW and THE FACE while VALENTI, LOVE & HONESTY and other albums were forgotten ^^' |

The album is also very thin for a best of. Feels half assed again.

Surprised there's no Valenti! Finally listened to the new version of Love Letter and it's lovely!
Think I will go for the standard version of the album. |

She just re-recorded 10 songs and then recorded a new one. This was never billed as an “all-time best” single collection type of thing. We always knew what we were getting. I don’t get what’s so half-assed about it?

I would classify it as "half-assed" if she picked up to re-record just some obvious songs like NO. 1, VALENTI, JEWEL SONG and Meri Kuri instead.
My only complaint is most of the tracks are very much similar to the originals in terms of vocals. She's singing with her voice from today, but the interpretation is very much close to the original ones, which is pointless to me when we are speaking of a "re-record release". I really wanted to see some matured interpretation for classic songs.

The arrangements are very cool and sounds fresh, I really enjoyed almost all of them!

I don't see a point in releasing it now since we have all but one track by then. If she wouldn't have pulled the single stunt i would feel different about it. at least she could have put 2-3 extra re-recordings on the album to make it worth it.

To me, it's OK. Even in Japan, physical releases are becoming destined to die-hard fans and collectors more and more, streaming numbers are becoming more relevant to show artists' impact. Releasing songs like that, one by one, boost their numbers and the album will debut with a high number of streams from day 1.

sure thing, but even not physically buying it I would like to have a nicer package.

Haven't listened to everything but I like it all so far. Just I think the new song sounds more like her Korean style which surprised me. My other surprise is that the actual tracklist isn't announced with the tracks listed in the order they'll actually appear on the album.

Where on her website? I've been on the Japanese official website thrice and looked through the news and discography sections and couldn't find the tracklist.

I appreciated the "No.1" vibes the rooftop scenes were giving me, and the overall production level of the video (which she usually is not lacking in)...but it just fell very flat for me visually and sonically.
