New CD Thread Vol. 3: The Legally Purchased Anthology

[DisneyFreak5282]

Also apparently on the first pressings of the album during the song "Misery", P!nk sings the verse that begins "Since you been gone", but Steven Tyler sings that verse on all current pressings.

I don't have the CD but I do have "Misery" from iTunes (the version with Tyler singing that verse) -- amazing!

It's really a great album, if you haven't heard the rest of it I would highly recommend it!

Backstreet Boys, This Is Us, Amazon.com preorder, $2.97 after gift card

I was confused by Amazon's preorder price guarantee; if you preorder it, you get it at the cheapest price, but I didn't want the day the CD came out to order it and have the price be more expensive or something, so I just preordered it. I'm sad I won't have it the day it comes out, but for $2.97, I can't complain!

Got this about a week or 2 ago, but never got around to posting it:



Jay-Z: The Blueprint 3, $13.88 at Wal-Mart.

I wanted the Target Exclusive Limited Edition CD/DVD set, but Target was all out so I went to Wal-Mart and got this, only to find out it is edited. Oh well.

I went to Wal-Mart and got this, only to find out it is edited. Oh well.

Every single CD sold at Walmart is edited. They don't sell Parental Advisory CDs. Just FYI.

Went to FYE and stocked up on a few CDs I needed to get replaced and / or upgraded, and I also got a new one:


Madonna: Confessions on a Dance Floor, $7.99 Used
I wanted the special edition but have yet to find it, and I got home and looked it up and the box is big and for one extra track I don't think it's worth all that extra money.



Madonna: American Life [Limited Edition], $4.00 Used
The Used CDs were buy two, get the third 50% off, so I got $4.00 off (it was originally $8.00). The nice thing is, this was still wrapped in its original packaging, they just stuck a used price tag on it.



Michael Jackson: HIStory: Past, Present and Future - Book I, $11.99 used.
I had a $3.00 off coupon to FYE from a local entertainment book so I finally decided to use it after almost a year. It was originally $14.99, and I'm glad the nice cashier man decided to take the $3 off the most expensive item

Madonna: Celebration [Deluxe Edition], $15.98 at Target


Mariah Carey: 3 CD Box Set - Charmbracelet / The Emancipation of Mimi [Ultra Platinum Edition] / E=MC2, $19.99 at Target. I've been playing around with the editions of the albums from this box set. I put the Deluxe Edition of E=MC2 in there and took out the standard one (I initially purchased the standard edition when it first came out and bought the Deluxe for $5 when Circuit City was in its final days). Thankfully for me, the only album in the box that had shrink wrap around the album itself as well as the security tape was E=MC2. So I think I'll go to FYE and get money for it and hold on to the open standard edition I have.

I also put the Deluxe Limited Edition Digipak version of the original 14-track release of TEOM in there because two jewel cases and two Digipaks would look weird. I know it's the inferior version, but the Ultra Platinum Edition came with bonus tracks but it did not come with the bonus DVD, so once I find a copy of the Platinum Edition (which contains the bonus tracks AND the DVD), I'll put that in there.

I kept Charmbracelet in there because I traded in the first copy I bought a few days ago, knowing I would be getting this set. I need to find the import version with the second disc of songs because I've been looking for it forever. Once I find it I'll put it in there.

I'm still on the fence about whether or not I want to put Memoirs in the box for some reason. Weird, I know.


Mariah Carey: Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel, $9.99 at Best Buy

Target CD/DVD exclusive. I don't LOVE the creepy cover though. I suppose a cover of just her in rocker clothes with her hair blowing in the wind is pretty overly done, but she's so gorgeous I would have preferred that.

Forgot to mention that I also got Harry Connick, Jr.: Your Songs. Kind of disappointing for a Harry CD, but it has its moments. I reviewed it on Amazon.com.

Christmas stuff? already? (Not you for buying it, but them for putting it out)

Yeah, they had a whole Christmas music display up! I was shocked, but happy!
