I feel like Kana's career is too short to be talking so nostalgically about it, lol. But, I also feel the same. Her music used to excite me, but not its just more mild curiousity.

The release is still a month away, the tracklist will be reveiled in one or two weeks

I got really interested in her music shortly after Distance was released. I just kept seeing her name everywhere I went to online and wondered why she is so great. I ended up listening to her songs and to LOVE and it's singles really caught my attention. I loved those days of discovering new artists. I think I should listen Kana's discography through at some point just to get the feels of nostalgia. XD

Covers for the best album were released and they look so great! I love the concept, very elegant looking. Her other best collection's artwork was way too chaotic!

so, wich songs are missing? I think I'm gonna leave the b-sides where they are now..at the end of each album

I really like the cover. I was afraid to get another cute and flowery covers and I'm quite glad that they're minimalist and classy!

The only song I'm familiar with is Clap Clap!! so I'm excited! Will be pre-ordering these soon. Although I think the regular edition covers are better than the limited :/

I like the covers *_*

the cover looking good..she become more mature now...

I am in complete love with the covers! :love And the entire concept of this release. The red & green absolutely brings a more classy/elegant feel, which just makes Kana look even more gorgeous, than usual. :luv2 I am also really loving the previews for the four new songs! They're all sounding fantastic (I'm still hooked on "No.1", though :P) if you want to hear all the previews for the album, they're right here: http://secret-collection.com/ :heart

Glad to see Together in there. I've had that song on loop since yesterday.
Finally managed to listen to Thank You, Love album and it has some nice songs.

It's really too bad that they chose to put album tracks on, too, and the b-sides that were already on the album. It just feels unnecessary IMO. Like another basic compilation album although we've had one not too long ago.

i love the covers, especially the limited ones

Exactly
This should be a bside only best. She has plenty of bsides which weren't included on albums.

Agree. She should have included all bsides. Not worth buying.

Ok, so I've tried to listen to "Love Place" once again now that my Kana fandom level is a lot higher. And I have to say that this album is really basic. Probably the songs I'll keep - Watashitachi, FANTASY, Honey, たとえ どんなに, kiss & hug and My Place.
I feel that this album doesn't really bring anything new to the table from her last effort "Thank you, LOVE". But I did noticed the "fantasy" vibe in songs like My Place and the prologue and epilogue which is nice.

Right now :
01 / with LOVE
02 / Thank You, LOVE
..
..
03/ Love Place

(I haven't listened to her first 2 studio albums. #comingsoon)

^Love place is her worst album and I don't think that the time can improve it.

The previews of the new songs sound good without being amazing. This is how we do it seems to be the best to me.

for me, her best album is to LOVE.
