Subject: TWW Box (Japan) described
To: Love-Hounds@uunet.UU.NET
Lars asked for corroboration or correction on the differences between the UK and Japanese editions of TWW. I own the Japanese edition, and I am sorry to say: a) The only English to appear in the whole set are the lyrics and the very brief introduction by KaTe Herself. The rest is Japanese only, and seems to include mostly magazine articles. Now it is my lifelong ambition to learn Japanese. (Even the discography/ biography is Japanese--the only English is song titles!) b) Alas, I can find nothing special whatsoever about the Japanese CDs themselves. No TWW or KT symbols anywhere I can see; the discs themselves are black with yellow lettering. No pictures on the discs. I understand the UK edition came with stickers of the TWW symbol; not so the Japanese. (What would you do with them anyway?) Btw, I paid CDN $226 plus tax, only to have the (Canadian) re-release appear within weeks for something like $165. Aaaaarrghhh!
