Search - Blur :: 13

I like the album, but JUST BUY THE REGULAR VERSION!

"I love blur, and I loved this album [though sometimes I have no idea why], but you don't need to pay the extra dough for the 'limited edition'. All you get for your extra money is: a poster f/ the cover on one side [grahm's not a bad artist, but do you need more than just the cover sized version?] and a bunch of versions of the #13 which let you see how the 13 is actually a B. Oo. And you get the enhanced extras: a discography you can access at their website and the band's thoughts on the 13 tracks + 3 more questions. Cool, right? But what do they have to say about each one? For example, Bugman. Alex: "This next song is Bugman, and it's heavy." That's it! Don't expect any insight that will change your mind completely about the album--if you like the album, you'll like it still, but these extras won't turn you around. Oh yeah, and you get the box & silly bifold storage sleave. Oo.So just buy the regular version of "13"; it's a good album, though not for the close minded."
