It was released in two versions: a 1st limited edition and a 2nd edition with different covers. The limited edition could only be ordered online (from her official record store), and came with a 24 page photobook, shot on location in Australia, and one of three signed photographs (one special candid shot (namajashin), or one of two normal candid shot).
