How did you get a hold of it so early?? anyway thanks so much!! 
EDIT: listening to it right now, I KNEW Tian Nv would be Tennyo. She didn't even edit it or give it Chinese lyrics. well I guess I'll have to see how the rest of the album plays out...although right now I feel pretty cheaped out. |

that's awesome but...
UGGHHHH WHAT THE HELL ALAN YOU JERK.
there are NO new songs on Xin de dong fang. That is NOT cool. This is either avex's idea, or alan is a lazy girl (I bet on the first). Seriously even the English parts on Fei Xing Zhi are copy-pasted from Sora Uta (yeah it's not even a new song, it's a Chinese Sora Uta). I can't believe this. Thank God I didn't actually buy the album. Wow. -___-" I could just listen to Voice of EARTH over again. At least it's got other songs. |

I wake up and this album is all over every Chinese forum and blog -_-;; I wonder how this album will actually do sales wise
Thanks for the the link though Crystallas.
There larger pictures out for the covers and the back cover/cover of the photo album is pretty, but I think it was in the VoE booklet ... I can't remember
 
I heard this is the cover of the photobook, I'm not 100% sure though
The producers and those who mastered the tracks on this album should get their wrist slapped. The quality control on this album is horrible in terms of the audio mixing in some songs (mostly the ones that haven't been released before. The Red Cliff songs are fine since they were released before. Granted this isn't new in a C-pop album (not that all C-pop albums are like this) but I'm a bit sadden by this since they're trying to promote alan in China. |

Wow that's sad to hear that quality isn't that great. They should of took their time before releasing the album then 
The back cover is really pretty  It might of been in the booklet I'd have to check my copy once I get a chance. |

They're not all bad, I'm mainly thinking about the Chinese versions of Sora Uta and Gunjou no Tani.
I'm way too lazy to download and re-up all these pictures but here's pictures of the packaging. Looks like they used the bigger case which is typical of some Chinese releases. I have some albums like this, and they're usually decently packaged

well, this is indeed disappointing.

at least the booklet is DAMN GOOD LOOKING! (thanks for the link, sakuraangel  )
and don't forget there's a new single coming out. |

I don't know, I was kinda hoping she would make it at least slightly different for the Chinese release...but ah whatever. I guess I'll just hold out for Natsu no Umi. |

I'm so dissapointed of this album... This is a bad recycling. Chinese language doesn't fit some of the songs, for example "Ashita e no Sanka". But the back cover is soooo pretty.
I can't wait for "Natsu no Umi", this song has to be miles better then "Heart in the East"  ! |

anyone want the 320 version? It does sound cleaner and clearer but the Chinese version of Gunjou no Tani and Ashita e no Sanka still sound messy to me. But it's the random off-key notes.
some pix from the cd booklet
 
I'm listening to another c-pop album now that just got released today and they actually took the time to quality checks on it and whatnot. I wonder if they just didn't have the budget for alan's album or that alan didn't have time to re-record certain tracks. Lack of studio times? I'm quite puzzled. |

^ Wow, the booklet photos is gorgeous. She's so pretty.
Personally, I don't really like the Chinese album, although I did like her last Chinese cover album. I'll just wait patiently for a better-produced album |

Thanks for the scans sakuraangel

I wanted to give you guys a better idea of how big the packaging is, so here's some pictures of alan promoting the album
  
I have two other C-pop cds like this (a Hu Ge album and a Various Artist from One Million Stars) but not all C-pop albums are this big. It's bigger than the Red Cliff (Chinese version) EP that came out quite some time ago. |
