is that mp3-only release?
i would like to hold a pack of these diary photos which would come with a cd of this music packed in a black velvet luxury box :))
aaah!
Great idea, me too. :)
No luck on the photos (I found them online, myself), but if you'll send your address to the e-mail listed in my lj profile I'll mail you a CD. | |
