...if only I could deciphere what it says O_o

Oh yeah I also accquired a compilation of some various artists including, I'll post the playlist thingy that came with it.

Nice compilation... did you buy it (I hope not... bootlegs are bad :p) All the artists are pretty good, though. I just made a compilation CD for my friends, made a jacket, CD label and everything *lol* Yeah... I went overboard. Looks pretty professional, though. ^__^

That's what I have in my hard drive at the moment.

I like most of your playlist Torino, and yours Merc is amazing as always. I downloaded Hikki's new song (Colours) yesterday and I think it's pretty damn addictive

That CD that I got the other day is authentic It's a compilation that one of my friends older sister's Japanese friend burnt over in Japan and then sent over here. It even says "Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation" on it

I managed to accquire Glay's album "Unity Roots & Family, Away".
It seems quite different to most of their normal stuff but I like it
They seem to have a lot more orchestral stuff through it which is cool.
