I think 17 is the best song on the album, tsumi is second and kimi third.

(edit) Another thing I'm suprised nobody noticed! Okay, 'tsumi to batsu' translates to 'crime and punishment'. There is a book called crime and punishment. In an interview, Ringo says that she b based SS somewhat off of this book, (first half of SS about crime, second half about the punishment for those crimes) and the book crime and punishment is a translation of a Russian book. Now, take a look at the lisence plate on Hitler on tjhe cover. It's in Russian, I think. I found the book in my bookcase last night and I wanted to read it. I opened it up and it said it was translated off of a Russian book.

(edit) Hey. The title is here.
Look at what it says in Russian for the title in wiki, then look at the lisence plate. Only reason it's not full, well duh. The car's cut in half.

What interview is this? Because so far as I know, that was a theory posted on the old forums by someone who posted a lot of random information, but it was not by any means documented. And a lot of us picked it apart and had major problems with it.

That also isn't really something no one noticed so much as something we already covered on the old forums, and didn't mention here (down to the Russian car license plate).

Yeah, that's not an interview, but a theory thought up by the person who posted all that info.

I have that book actually and have even read the few first pages. Though it didn't intrest me that much, so maybe I should take a look again.. since Tsumi to batsu is my favorite song and I'm going to buy that single sooner or later!
So was there some differences beetween the presses?

I think the difference is that the CD for the normal edition doesn't have the apple images and is just plain red, if I remember correctly? And, I was wondering what the text was!! Thanks for pointing that out, Haruhi! (I also missed that part in the Ringo Trivia topic.)

Welcome, Masuku!! I love your avatar! I was thinking of using that picture for mine, too! Ringo looks so young and cute there!! >_< <3

Thank you badtzmaru for the information and compliment (I agree that Ringo looks lovely there !). I guess it doesn't matter which press I'll buy then (CDjapan doesn't give that many choises anyway though)

It's been a while when I have posted at this forum. Well, I had bought the 2nd press of Tsumi to Batsu already earlier but now i'm also the owner of 1st press version. In case if anyone is interested, here is a picture of the both CDs (taken with cellphone)
