The Japanese edition of ...baby one more time features a different back cover and a very different artwork theme overall

[Spicechinodiva]

I hate to say this, I perfer this artwork it looks more mature and her age of 16.

 

Then the original artwork. 

 

In actuality the US cover is the only version of the iconic pink background with her kneeling, It was changed for international audiences due to the Lolita esque pose caused controversy around government approvals. So Jive changed the cover for international markets.

I think I once read they chose this photo for the cover because Britney’s ethnicity was more questionable. If you look at it, she can pass as an Asian girl, with a slight eye surgery. Especially the photo in the back.

I love the Japanese cover  that and the normal international cover are sooo much better than the US one.

its great in venezuela they used to sell it on a disco store that imported all this weird things.

i miss the times when you go to a cd store you play the cd, and them you buy it, it was all the experience, we changed our payments celphone data  instead of physical cd's.

i miss my cd's

baby take a seat eyes on me this is my show BTW Lace & leather is great #Justice4Lace&leather

[HeavenOnHell]

I have the eu version and that back picture being the front is so much better than the pink one. The us ed is so pink and teeny. 

[Jup1ter]

 

This is the version I have

Am I the only one who prefers the pink one? 

[Mario]

I like those covers, but the pink cover is now iconic. I'm glad we got pink in the US.

Same, that’s the one we have here in Spain. It actually looks way better than the pink one tbh.

[Cheshire-B]

In France we got the white european one and honestly I'm not a big fan of it. I think the pink one looks better and fits the mood of the album better.

For me that is the cover of BOMT. I hate RCA changed the cover of the digital international BOMT album from this to the pink cover (with a very noisy image) 

[CJMCH]

I have the 3 covers, I'm missing the "Britney Spears" original theme one though, that one came out in Taiwan:

That being said, the pink cover is ICONIC

OG BOMT cover/pic etc. (Whilst slightly awkward and cheap looking) is iconic.

[Blackout2006]

I really don’t know which one to prefer.

I really like the European version but the American BOMT is iconic.

However, the European BOMT cover would look best on vinyl format

U realize she was 14 in this particular photo shoot, no?

I hate that lipstick color. It makes her look like Orange Trump.

The USA cover is a composite

Ikr, If I didn't know who she was, I would totally think she is a japanese girl

and I always thought that image was a smart move in order to get attention
