Oh really? Before I go there, were they angry like they think it's a bad site and I'm a bad translator, or angry because they saw a "Frecklegirl" (my wiki name) edit it in at some point in the past?

Okay, I looked it up, and "Jeans" is not written (music or lyrics) by Ringo, but "Private" is music & lyrics by her. So I'll be translating that one!

Where is this single available to be bought? And is there a youtube link for the song?

There's no PV for Private, probably because it's a B-side. There is a live performance on YouTube though:
Hirosue Ryoko - Private

It's not bad, but it also wouldn't have fit in with any of Shiina Ringo's albums, either. I think Shiina Ringo could have got away with featuring it as one of her own B-sides, though. Wouldn't have been much more of a 'misfit' than Memai.

As for buying it...
I had to get it from Yahoo! Japan Auctions, via Shopping Mall Japan. I haven't found a more comfortable method, but at least it wasn't expensive. For something that's been out-of-print for so many years, you might be surprised to find out how cheap the Jeans single is going for. I got both (slightly different) cover art versions together in one auction for 600yen, plus all the SMJ fees. The total was around $20 USD by the time I had my hands on it.

JPopHelp offers the CD, but they don't tell you it's a backorder until after you add it to your cart. They probably snatch it up from an auction site, just as you yourself could do. Seems especially likely when you look at their price.
