Scarlet Stories: The photo on the left is the outside of the CD opened up, and the right shows you the inside of the CD. So if you a completist collector, you will need to get Scarlet Stories. The limited edition DVD contains longer commentaries from Tori on Scarlet's Walk and Gold Dust, but that is it.

In an earlier update, I stated that Scarlet Stories is a shorter, edited version of the commentary that comes on the DVD packaged with Limited Edition version of Scarlet's Walk. It depends on how strict the store near you is! I have seen many vendors confused and giving it away with one copy of the album, with one copy of the limited edition and so on. But I have to wonder how strict all stores will be about that. It also appears that the promotion mainly applies to buying two copies of the regular album and not the limited edition version. Other than this special version put out by HMV, I am not aware of an easy way for Toriphiles outside the U.S. Can someone from Australia verifiy if HMW made such a special 2-CD version of the album available there? I also have reported that some people are walking in HMV and finding an Australian version of the2-CD album that couples the album with Scarlet Stories as mentioned above for Canada. Special HMV Canadian 2-CD version of Scarlet's Walk combined with Scarlet Stories. Jessica sent me this email from HMV explaining this: Shortly after the album went on sale, HMV.com removed all reference to Scarlet Stories off their web site. However, Toriphiles in Canada can get the Scarlet Stories interview disc through HMV.com and their stores, who are offering a special 2-CD version of Scarlet's Walk that includes the album and Scarlet Stories!

(The salesperson didnt believe me, so I simply argued, "If the Limited Edition came with Scarlets Stories why would they be charging more for the Limited Edition and giving "Scarlets Stories" away for free with the non-Limited Edition?" That convinced her.)

Scarlet Stories is a completely separate CD that has to be picked up at the register when you buy Scarlets Walk from one of the Independent Retailers listed on Make sure to ask for the Scarlet Stories CD and insist that the CD is different from the Limited Edition. The Limited Edition contains a map, some stickers, a DVD, and Scarlets Walk CD. Scarlets Walk Limited Edition DOES NOT INCLUDE Scarlets Stories. Some retailers seem a little bit confused about Scarlets Stories and Scarlets Walk Limited Edition. Here is some good info from Alexander Jhin: Try the smaller record stores that fit the profile of an Independent Retailer more than the big chain stores like Tower. You can always call your favorite record store and see if they are taking part in this promotion. state for the store closest to you that is taking part in the promotion. Ignore the Store Locator and instead go this special page that they have about the Tori promotion. You can access a list of independent retail stores participating in the "Get Tori as a Gift - Get a Gift From Tori" Scarlet's Stories promotion by surfing to ( Independent Retail Directory). It is being used in a promotion among indie music retailers that has the name "Get Tori as a Gift - Get a Gift From Tori" Basically if you go to one of these independent music retailers and buy two copies of Scarlet's Walk, then you can get Scarlet Stories for free. RYan sudick has emailed me with details about this bonus disc.
