it was always one of my favorites, one of the first i heard too
 I thought when i listened to LOVEppears the first time that the CD was just plain better quality than the mp3 i had, but it turns out my mp3 was the single version so the mix was just very different, lol ^^ The album version is much richer sounding, so i like it better overall, cept i prefer the "yeah right" ending of the single version.

monochrome, words at the end.
I don't know if I have some weird ver. of monochrome, but like at the very end of the song, the beat, music, and evreything cuts off, and it sounds like someone is saying "Yeah right".

It's not a weird version, but it is the single version. The album version has a more full-sounding mix and no voice at the end, it just cuts off and gets interrupted by the LOVEppears interlude.

I have the single version, but not the album version. I'm curious to hear this "fuller" sounding mix. Would someone who has the album version possibly upload it? Thanks.

It's in chpsv's yahoo mail account. login as a00loveppears00a, password 123456. Then click on the monochrome mail message and DL the attachment.

Whoa, it is different. I think I definitely prefer this version composition wise. It's richer. I think that's the right word. But I do prefer the single ending.
 Thank you for the download info.

It is MUCH richer. I usually listen to the LOVEppears version given the option. Most LOVEppears album versions sound richer to me. too late, TO BE, and immature are all different from their single versions... i like all the album versions better.

too late's vocal effects are different, and there's an extra instrument added to the intro that extends the beginning a bit... also a richer version of it than the single. Biggest way to tell, "ikiisogu to shitemooo-o-o-o-o-oooo" or "ikiisogu to shitemo...." Is it just held or is there an effect that makes the "o" sound skip to the rhythm of the song? if it skips, it's the single version.
"TO BE"'s biggest differences are the intro's instrument fading a bit after each note instead of just echoing at a steady volume, and the drums are quite a bit different in places. In the intro, just before the mandolin kicks in, there's a specific drum fill that's very easily discernable from the original mix. If there's a "DOON DOON DOON, doon doon doon" just before the mandolin, and the very beginning sounds sparse (like the heavenly-sounding background synth seems to dominate over the echoing & fading lead "plucking" synth instrument) then it's the album version. "immature" has just a totally different arrangement. the album version sounds like the Concert Tour 2000 performance, and there's alot of emphasis on lead keyboards. It sounds kinda like the disney electrical parade music at times ^^;;... the single version is the original, "JT Original CM Version", used in the Momo no Tennensui commercial with the mannequins. It's darker sounding, the synthesizer sounds like it wants to be an electric guitar when it grows up. It's more raw-sounding but i got tired of it easily, i tend to prefer the "prettier" album version.
