What's the difference between the regular and the limited edition, since it seems both were on sale?

[CatchFiveBats]

I could have sworn this single was titled "STEM ~Daimyou Asobi hen~".

Also, kind of a dissapointing single...only one "new" song, and it was just a remix. I'm sure I'll end up buying it anyway...

[frecklegirl]

It is titled (pronounced, rather) "Stem." I corrected it. (These threads look like I made them, but they were edited by someone else... XD)

And, remix, what are you talking about? Both Meisai and Ishiki are different versions from the versions that appear on the album (but not remixes!) and Stem is sung in English but with the same/slightly different melody. It's not a great single, but it's fairly good, and I'd never call a different version a remix!

[CatchFiveBats]

How are Meisai and Ishiki different (except for the fuzz at the beginning and the end)? And no, Stem isn't technically a remix...but the instrumentation is very different (and the lyrics, like you said, are in English), so it's really as close to a remix as SR gets (with the exception of maybe the HF version of Yokushitsu, which still follows the exact same song structure, just with different instrumentation and lyrics, much like Stem did here). I suppose 'remix' is the wrong word, but you know what I mean...

I haven't been able to find a so-called "limited edition". I mean, I've seen product listings on CDJapan and YesAsia SAYING that there is such a thing. I've looked through tens of thousands of Ringo auctions (not specifically for Stem) and for all I know I could have seen the limited edition and not have even known it, because if there is a difference, it's subtle.

I've also never seen a difference for Ringo no Uta. Supposedly the first-press has Mole packaging while the regular doesn't, but all I have EVER seen is what appears to be the Mole packaging.

I believe the "limited edition" version of this single is an enhanced CD with a data track containing some videos while the normal edition is simply a plain audio cd. I'm don't know how the two differ in appearance though.. edit: Correction. The normal edition does have a data track..but it only contains a player for the crappy (and shitty) Copy Control scheme present on the disc.
