Still Life Chinese (maybe pirate) edition

[Gogsi]

Hi Guys!
I'm a collector from Hungary. Few weeks ago I bought the Still Life chinese digipak edition on Ebay.
It is definitely a chinese edition, the seller was from Asia (Bangkok).
Soooo, this is a unique digipak version with slipcase, not the regular UK digipak edition.
It looks really nice, but in the booklet there are some really funny thing.
I will post some picture scans here with the original lyrics...
Have fun!

It looks legit from here. Post those cans as soon as you can.

First: 'The Moor'

In the booklet:
"Bathed in deep fag, blurring mg trail
Snuffing the first morning rags"
...
"Still calm with tag mind at peace
Would I prosper or fail, drain the past"

Original:
"Bathed in deep fog, blurring my trail
Snuffing the first morning rays"
...
"Still calm with my mind at peace
Would I prosper or fall, drain the past"

Could you give the edition, the label or stuff like that please deer Gogsi ??!!

 

[Powers]

I see, should the same mistakes crop up all over the place I'd imagine it's a printing error. Probably something to do with a difference between English and Chinese language characters.

 

[Gogsi]

Yes, of Course, Gauthier!


The cover and the booklet looks like exactly the same as the original UK editition (except the strange typos, of course). So it sais this is a Peaceville release.
All that I have a strange number on the disc and the slipcase.
This is: BR0114

Could you give the edition, the label or stuff like that please deer Gogsi ??!!

 

[Powers]

BRO114 seems to some sort of identification number for rare records.

[Powers]

Godhead's Lament:

In the booklet:
"I hide the sears from 11111 past
Yet tile sense iiig (tilute) dirge"
...
"M>rte cry. doti}t dare to tread
Seating beams zvacking you 60"k,11"

Original:
"I hide the scars from my past
Yet they sense my (mute) dirge"
...
"Mute cry, don't dare to tread
Searing beams tracking you down"


And the title is "Godheda's Lament"

lol, that's not very professional

Thai people will copy anything, they are masters of it. Walk down Ko Sahn road and you will be able to purchase any popular cd (obviously pirated) for around £1.50. The DVD pirate market there is absolutely HUGE.

I saw many stalls there selling fake ID from driving licences, personal identity cards and student ID cards.

And finally my absolute favourite...



"Immemorial fire in their EGGS"

Original:
"Immemorial fire in their eyes"

not original, and not rare at all, sorry! im a collecter myself and i have that cd as well, its pirated. as someone already said, people from japan, china etc. will copy/pirate anything they can get their hands on to sell it on the market.

 

[Powers]

Oh well it's still pretty cool.

I doubt any of your friends have one just like it.

 

[Gogsi]

Well, yes.
You're right.
I posted this because it's funny, I think, not because this is so rare...

Oh well it's still pretty cool.

I doubt any of your friends have one just like it.
