Faithway updated! 
OK… 「落花流水」CDS &「Empress」DVD…. nothing new….
Wait! 「BEST FINGER」 25th anniversary selection?!
Er…. so our dear 姫 has named her best album "BEST FINGER"?!
After her right eye on 「赤い花」 jacket, now she decides to feature her finger?!
OH…. Plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz DO NOT!!!!!!
I believe all fans want a proper jacket, not just a finger (even if it’s gold plated)!
Anyway…. I hope I’m just over reacting here. Keeping my fingers (oppss finger again) crossed.
OH…. 姫 has a message for us too ^^ 
Roughly, she said
Merry X’mas!
Time files, 2005 is ending soon.
The weather has become freezing as we enter the month of December.
Everyone, take care and beware of influenza.
I’m looking forward to seeing everyone at my dinner shows.
Till then… Akina
I think she named it "Best Finger" because the songs were personally selected by her.
Japanese also like to use the word "指先" in most of their lyrics, so maybe she was making a reference to that too. Does anyone know why they keep using this word in the songs?
Maybe it was meant to be "Best Singer" instead of "Best Finger"
UHm… I like Jamez’s interpretation ^^
"指先" = the tip of the finger, not the entire finger.
Another one of those "lost in translation" moments?
Cheesy title or not, you know it won’t stop us from buying the CD! =)
good grief. what does she wanna finger? her fans? HAHAHA. oh dear, so rude and so farni!!
can someone come up with a plausible explanation so i can stop thinking haywire!?
Best Finger? oh dear….
Maybe "GoldFinger" is one of her fave movies or songs, but I do think it is because of her selection. I don’t think Akina will use a part of her body as the cover anymore, especially the finger. She can use Seiko’s finger and pretend it’s hers and still no one will tell the difference.
If there is one thing she learnt, it is that she needs to show her face. If not, I don’t think she will have 1000 special covers for the DVDs. Has anyone thought about what if the special covers are like her body parts, like nose and such, and we are all buying from Faithway, and then we get cheated and have to buy the original from the shops because the cover is nicer! Oh dear …
Lastly, Dani, you are a very bad boy! I don’t mind getting so close to Akina though, but no private or disgusting bits like nose or ears please!!
BTW, Kohaku is revealing the singers list at 10 am Tokyo time. Anyone who can watch it live and tell us!!!
the list is out 2200hrs…not in the morning…I maybe able to watch it…will let you know
Oh Really! Sorry for that. No wonder no one is reporting now. Ha! Ha!
