theyre both on ebay really cheap... only $3 each...

NEVER EVER
Endless sorrow

i listened to these both last night to try and see which was better. i think its impossible to pick a better one tho because NEVER EVER + Endless sorrow are like a pair.. well, i think so anyway... just like SURREAL + AUDIENCE...

the remixes on NEVER EVER are a lot more upbeat, but theres a cool ambiental "tears of aquarius" remix at the end...

Endless sorrow's such a mix of tracks... i think that the fact that the original mix wasnt included on [I am...] adds novelty value to this single, its almost like a rikatto*shinguru in that respect...

but the CMJK remix of [vogue] is quite cool, its got all these strange aquatic sounds, kind of makes me think of a lotus plant thats emitting out a poisonous fragrance [??]

then theres like upbeat / dramatic remixes of Endless sorrow... in particular, check out izutani takahiro's "Brent Mini's gothic mix"... i had dismissed this remix b4, as its well weird, but i think he manages to push the pain in hamasaki's voice to new limits that wasnt done in the original mix... its a really interesting tune...

i couldnt really focus on the next one [Liquid Heart Mix] because it felt like someone was shaving my face and i was jumping around all these giant mushrooms... maybe that means the mix was so boring my mind just created those illusions to save me -_-

i thought the housey feel to ariyama yoshihiko's [Juicy Ariyama Mix] was quite cool @ first, but it soon got boring... altho credit for a wide variety of remixes for [Endless sorrow] and even the instrumental version is quite good... the [NEVER EVER] one was quite boring, but theres quite a lot of layers to Endless sorrow...

well, good luck in deciding which one u want, but hopefully u can get them both off ebay as theyre still quite cheap atm :p
