    The Originals - awful cheap crappy packaging with no real booklet included - but I do like the additional NC2U Cinematic Version, this one we didnt get on the Australian issue, but agree with others, it is hardly an "exclusive" if it was included on the Japanese one - LOL

      This is the last album to use the Warner Bros. Records imprint, due to the expiration of the label's loyalty-free license to use the WB shield in 2019. All further albums will be released under Warner Records.

        Target exclusive (???)....NOT....how is the extra track a Target exclusive as it is also featured at the Japanese version of this release??!!
        The Red Lettering at the back of the Target release is also identical to the Japanese release....all the other releases have black lettering at the backcover!
        BTW....the extra track would suit better to be featured at the Deluxe Edition!!!!

          I am so far enjoying this album quite a bit, and I like the "Dirty Mind" era Allen Beaulieu cover pic and spray paint lettering. But I take issue with the use of the ancient "page curl" Photoshop effect on the cover design. That was dated in 1995. It looks beyond dated now.
