There's a Special Edition of Rather Ripped?
 

Now I feel bad about buying the original. SP edition has both bonus tracks. Aw well, I can always get Helen Lundeberg / Eyeliner EP.

The 'special edition' was the only one that I saw in the shops here.

really? Today's the first time I hear about it. Serves me right for getting it a week before it was released...

There are some 'advance copy' promos doing the rounds.I bought the one with 5 tracks that has a the mini press release on the back sleeve.

If im not mistaken, all the copies outside the US are "special edition" and include Helen Lundegerb and Eyeliner. I think.

mine's got helen lundeberg but not eyeliner.
there's a japanese with both songs from the 7" and a special psychedelic mix of do you believe in rapture.

yeah thats the UK edition, anyone whos live in the UK has got that one with Helen Lundeberg and Eyeliner on. It doenst matter i still bought the 7'' thought.

I read the thread title as "special education".

Anyway, I still haven't heard Helen Lundberg or Eyeliner.

You should.

Helen Lundeberg sounds like it coulda been on Sister (at least the guitar work sounds like it).

Eyeliner is dispensable. Thurston is trying too hard to sound like some punk star he isn't/will never/shouldn't be.
