Not 'SR with orchestra'
all of which were Great songs so we have absolutely nothing to worry about if she goes in that direction.

unless you Didn't like those songs then, in which case I guess that's too bad.

Her singles didn't have symmetrical track titles.... just sayin'.

The titles just say "THESE WILL ALL BE BALLADS" to me, but I'm positive that won't happen. Also, I don't mind showtunes, but I'll attribute that to my genuine love for Heinz Kiessling .-.

knowing what ringo did for that kabuki performance I'm actually a bit more excited to hear what she has composed for that dance documentary.

this still looks good though, 3 new ringo songs, can't complain. Either she is getting generous with b-sides, these are all going to end up a-sides, or this is indicative that there isn't another solo album in the works.

It's not that I think those songs were terrible. But are those really the kind of tracks that sold you on Shiina Ringo in the first place? Let's not be silly now.

I don't think it really matters...

You like Ringo, you like Ringo.

Who cares what songs you liked first?

You may find similar music that you like better, but its still not Ringo.

Why I cannot be turned to the dark side.

I like showtunes. And yes, I am a huge Disney slut, since you asked. And yes, Irokoizata still sucks.

You can hear part of Carnation here. It's at the half way mark (after the song with the brat singing):
