As with their debut single this single comes in three versions, two Limited Editions and a Regular Edition.
The Limited Edition type A comes with a CD with just the two title tracks as well as a DVD. The DVD will have the music videos for both songs, a dance shot video of the song Stories, as well as footage from the CD jacket shooting and music videos.
The Limited Edition type B also just has the two title tracks on the CD. The DVD it comes with has multiple angles for the Kissin' My Lips music video as well as a bonus video titled Shinjitsu o Abake! JOKER Game.
The Regular Edition is just the CD but has a total of four songs, a voice track as well as the karaoke versions of all four songs on the CD. The songs included are the two title tracks and then two new songs for the group. There is also a voice drama listed as a fifth track.
Even though I am a bigger SixTONES fan than Snow Man I really enjoyed their songs from their debut single. Plus because of the tie-ins for the title tracks of this song I have had the chance to listen to them and I cannot wait to hear their full versions. And if the B-sides are as good as their debut single this is going to be a great single.
That said I cannot believe how long it has taken for Snow Man to get a second single. A big part was most likely waiting for Iwamoto Hikaru to return from the hiatus he took because of the scandal he was caught in. No one would have been happy to have the group release a single without him and thankfully it was just a minor scandal so there was little doubt he would be back.
Of course it would have been nice to have gotten more song tracks with this release. SixTONES second single felt like it was making up for how long it had been since their debut single by adding songs from their Junior days. I wish Avex would have done the same but if Snow Man follows the same release pattern as fellow Johnny's group signed on with Avex, Kis-My-Ft2, fans will have to wait for Snow Man's first album release to get CD versions of their Junior songs.
Still overall happy to get more from Snow Man. Hopefully the wait fro their next release will not be nearly as long.
