Title: Heroes & Thieves import album (+ bonus tracks)
Post by: bumblebee429 on October 18, 2007, 03:15:45 pm
I pre-ordered the Heroes & Thieves import album (with bonus tracks) with CD Universe, and they e-mailed me yesterday to tell me that my order was now on backorder because "the item is still not available from our vendors". What the hell?? :'( Has anyone else managed to get hold of the import version? This sucks, I want the bonus track!

^^^I thought so too, but all the online stores have japanese import + bonus track listed. Unless they change it, then I think it is still supposed to be released.

If the site he/she got it from said it had a bonus track, then I'm sure it does. Which would rule. I really hope there is one. *finger cross* All is Well!!

Personally, i'm hoping for the original version of The One [the one she played live @ The Living Room] without Stevie. It's so much more defined than the scaled down version. I don't particularly care too much for Best Behaviour because I never thought it was all that great but I wouldn't mind a studio version of All is Well. All is Well really reminds me of Morning Sting. All is Well, to me, sounds as if it should have been in Harmonium. I'm guessing it's one of the first songs she wrote since the completion of Harmonium.

Like I said, there's no Japanese version as of now: I was in Tokyo and all they had was the imported US version.

Ghis, I keep reading that you're in Japan. Are you living there, or just on a holiday, from France?

Well, there's no point of calling it "bonus tracks" than is it?  :razz:

There's got to be more than 1 track.

I got a reply from YesAsia and it's no good:

"In reference to your inquiry regarding Vanessa Carlton album "HEROES & THIEVES", please kindly be informed that, according to the feedback from our suppliers, your inquired product is in US version, and there is no Japan version which has been released by the publisher, hence we are unable to source such item from them."

I told you so, no Japan version, all I saw was the US one in Tokyo.
I guess we can kiss the bonus track goodbye... :?

I don't understand that NF, never got a psysical release. Only a promo :/
They could've released one, and included a b-side. And people would've hopefully bought it because of that.

Because even she probably has no idea.  We'd be better off talking to someone at Universal or Polydor or whomever is releasing it overseas.

Has there ever been any kind of official announcement, or is it just speculation based on Amazon site listings?

Sadly, this import version doesn't even exist...
So unless there's a new edition coming out, the cd we have now is the only one we'll ever get.
