My FC best came today and it’s so so nice :love

The font looks pretty small on the name plate, but maybe that’s because I only had my first name engraved.

Mine has been shipped today, at last. I hope these late shipment at least makes it chart a little better this week.

Kuu was the studio guest on yesterday / this week's VS Damashii

I need a rip so bad

My FC best arrived a few days ago but I shipped it to my parent's house by accident lol finally got it today though and the packaging is great! Gonna start listening now. Haven't heard a lot of these songs in a while so it's gonna be nice to take a journey through Kumi's career up till this point.

I would like to see the Limited edition photobook. My regular edition is coming to my country from cdjapan and the booklet says "photo book", I can't wait.

I don’t have a working computer right now but I can take bad photos of the book with my tablet.

Wow thank you!! I love it!

Also something I've noticed about the earlier tracks is that they used the single versions of the songs (most apparent for me are COLOR OF SOUL and So Into You, can't tell the difference in the others though). Felt that was a nice touch since BEST ~first things~ used to album versions.

EDIT: I'm making my way through the second session tracks and WIND and No Regret have their single (?) versions on here too. The difference in No Regret is a sax solo in the middle. I heard this version years ago when it had just came out, I downloaded it from a file sharing site. After second session came out, it was hard for me to find this version and as years went on I thought I just dreamed it up. I guess I just didn't look hard enough haha, but that was a nice surprise too.

Tbh, I hate this version of D.D.D.
The original version shows how kinky it can be.
The new version is like MILF version - the music lacks of energy

Does anyone know what's the vinyl record on display in the background of two of the pics? It's a woman in front of blue backdrop. Title looks something like "Song About You"?

Can anyone share a real rip of the FC edition, please?...

I second that! :)

^I don't think will aver see it, it's not even on jpopsuki, I mean it's a lot of money xD maybe someday xD (and even if it was on jpopsuki, can't download from there I owe them GBs xD)

^I will get it and a lot of people on here did too. but I dont have a CD slot anymore

^Same, I'd love to rip it even for myself, but my Mac doesn't have a CD slot. :-\ I listened to the CDs via my PS3 lolol. Even my PS4 doesn't read CDs.

I may be able to get a rip for us towards the end of the month. When I visit my parents home soon I can borrow their external CD drive. Hopefully we get a rip before then, but if not, I'll see what I can do.

Also, they forgot the "STRIP" music video for the BLU-RAY. The music video was only included in the BLACK CHERRY / JAPONESQUE tour. IDK why they forgot to include it in the 3BD.

usually the bonus music videos never get released outside the live dvd's/ blu-ray's. (also Lady Go!'s wannabe video and Lucky Star weren't included as well on the BD)

The Limited FC edition is up at Jpopsuki.
